ASTM-A581 vs ASTM-A582
(OP)
Customer calls out 303 per ASTM-A581 with a note recommendation of 5/16 material, my material supplier says thats for wirer only and sends me 303 ASTM-A582. Neither spec definds size except to refer to "wirer" and "bar". can anyone lead me to an acceptable reference to satisfy this issue?





RE: ASTM-A581 vs ASTM-A582
A581 conforms with A555 and starts as rod, it is coiled product.
A582 must comply with A484 and must start as bar, billet, or forging.
The finished items may look identical.
