1. Scope
1.1 This specification establishes the requirements for lead- coated copper sheet and strip in flat lengths (or in coils) in ounce-weight thicknesses for roo fing, flashing, gutters, downspouts, and for the general sheet metalwork in building construction. The lead coating is applied by hot dipping. 1.2 Products produced to this specification are not intended for electrical applications. 1.3 Units—The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. N OTE 1—A companion specification for copper sheet and strip for building construction is Specification B370. 1.4 The following hazard caveat pertains to the test method portion, Section 17, of this specification. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environ- mental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accor- dance with internationally recognized principles on standard- ization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recom- mendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
4. Terminology
4.1 For definitions of terms related to copper and copper alloys, refer to Terminology B846.4.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard: 4.2.1 coil—a length of the product wound into a series of connected turns. 4.2.1.1 Discussion—The unqualified term “coil” as applied to “flat product” usually refers to a coil in which the product is spirally wound, with the successive layers on top of one another. (Sometimes called a “roll.”) 4.2.2 lead-coated copper sheet (for building construction), n—a rolled flat product over 24 in. (610 mm) in width and of ounce-weight thickness from 8 oz (227 g) to 48 oz (1361 g). 4.2.3 lead-coated strip (for building construction), n—a rolled flat product up to and including 24 in. (610 mm) in width and of ounce-weight thickness from 8 oz (227 g) to 48 oz (1361 g). 4.2.4 lengths, mill, n—straight lengths, including ends, that are conveniently manufactured in the mills. 4.2.4.1 Discussion—Full length pieces are usually 8, 10, or 12 ft (2.44, 3.05, or 3.66 m) and subject to established length tolerances. 4.2.5 ounce-weight—the weight of uncoated copper sheet or strip expressed in ounces per square foot. 4.2.6 thickness, ounce-weight, n—the metal thickness that corresponds to the ounce weight.
5. Ordering Information
5.1 Include the following specified choices when placing orders for product under this specification, as applicable: 5.1.1 ASTM designation and year of issue. 5.1.2 Temper (Section 8 and Table 1), 5.1.3 How furnished: flat lengths or in coils, 5.1.4 Quantity: total weight or sheets of each size, 5.1.5 Ounce-weight or ounce-weight thickness of the un- coated copper sheet or strip (Table 2), 5.1.6 Dimensions: width and length (Section 12), 5.1.7 Certification, where required (see 5.1.4), TABLE 2 Sheet Weights 5.1.8 Mill test report, where required (see 5.1.5), and 5.1.9 If the material being purchased is intended for use by agencies of the U.S. Government, refer to Section 11. 5.1.10 Other variations in coating or texture shall be fur- nished by agreement in writing between the purchaser and the manufacturer or supplier.
6. Materials and Manufacture
6.1 Materials: 6.1.1 The lead coating shall conform to the chemical re- quirements of Table 3. 6.1.2 The copper sheet or strip to be lead coated shall be manufactured by any process that provides a finished product that conforms to the requirements of Specification B370. 6.2 Manufacture: 6.2.1 The lead coating shall be applied to the copper sheet or strip by hot dipping in a bath of molten lead. 6.2.2 Unless otherwise specified, the lead coating shall be applied to the copper sheet or strip after slitting and cutting to the specified length.
