ASTM A933/A933M-95(2001)

1.1 This specification covers plain and deformed steel wire and plain and deformed steel welded wire fabric with protective vinyl (PVC, polyvinyl chloride, or polyvinyl chloride powder compound) coating. Class A is intended for use as reinforcement in concrete and Class B as reinforcement in earth.

1.2 Other thermoplastic organic coatings may be used provided they meet the requirements of this specification.

Note 1--The coating applicator is identified throughout this specification as the manufacturer.

1.3 Requirements for coatings are contained in Annex A1.

1.4 This specification is applicable for orders in either inch-pound units (as Specification A933) or in SI units [as Specification A933M].

1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with this specification.
