Mechanical Properties 7.1 The zine-coated wire, as represented by the test speci- mens tested in accordance with Test Methods E8, shall conform to the tensile strength requirements prescribed in Table 4 or Table 5. Tensile strength-mechanical properties other than specified in Table 4 or Table 5 can be ordered upon agreement between the purchaser and producer. 7.2 Test specimens found to contain a weld or obvious imperfections shall be discarded and another test specimen obtained to verify conformance to the tensile strength require ‘ments, 8. Permissible Variations 8.1 The permissible variation in diameter of the zine-coated wire as represented by the test specimens shall meet the requirements shown in Table 6 or Table 7. 9. Weight (Mass} of Coating 9.1 The zinc-coated wire, as represented by the test speci- ‘mens tested in accordance with Section 12 and Test Method A90/A9OM, shall conform to the requirements of Table | ‘Table 2, or Table 3 for minimum weight {mass} of zine coating of the class specified. Individual results not more than 10% below the minimum values specified in Table 1, Table 2, or ‘Table 3 are allowed, if the average of atleast two samples from the same coil are equal to or greater than the minimum value specified in Table 1, Table 2, or Table 3. 9.2 Zine-coated wire produced as “regular coating” shall hhave the full surface covered with zinc, but there is no specified ‘minimum weight of coating, 10. Adherence of Coating 10.1 The zinc-coated wire as represented by the test speci- ‘mens shall be capable of being wrapped in a close helix at a rate not exceeding 15 tumns/min around a cylindrical stee! mandrel having a diameter as prescribed in Table 8 or Table 9 ‘without cracking or flaking the zine coating to such an extent that any zine can be removed by rubbing with the bare fingers. Loosening or detachment during the adhesion test of superficial, small particles of zinc formed by mechanical polishing of the surface of the zinc-coated wire shall not be considered cause for rejection, 1. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance 11.1 ‘The zinc-coated wire shall be free of slivers, scale, and ‘other imperfections not consistent with good commercial practice. The coating shall be continuous and reasonably uniform.
