Unknown material code on old CAD Dwg B-62-6032-001

Unknown material code on old CAD Dwg B-62-6032-001

Unknown material code on old CAD Dwg B-62-6032-001

(OP)
Hi there,

I am new to this site so please bear with me since i am not even sure if i am posting in the precise forum. I am a new engineer and am unfamiliar with the most efficient way of looking up material codes. I am working on a project where we are redrafting and sending out for quotation parts that were initally spec'd out by engineers who worked at the company back in the early 1960's. As a result I have no way of looking up a material code of B-62-6032-001/002/003/004 specd out on alot of the parts. They basically looked like steel parts with perhaps a zinc plate but any help in the right direction would help. I thought it was possibly referring to the ASTM B62 standard but it seems to be more related to bronze.

RE: Unknown material code on old CAD Dwg B-62-6032-001

No. It would seem to me that you need to find the actual drawing that is referenced by this number B-62-6032-001. Once you locate this drawing, there should be information on the drawing or reference to a Table or Notes that identify a bill of materials or materials of construction.
