Galvanized steel wire

This document defines the requirements for hard temper, and extra high strength (EHS) galvanized steel wire in the diameter range of 0.051 inch (1.30mm) to 0.083 inch (2.11mm).

1. Mechanical
   General:
   The galvanized steel wire meets the requirements of ASTM A641 for Class 1 hard temper wire, exceptions being noted. Where there is a conflict between this specification and ASTM A641, this specification shall govern.
   Exception: Part number 035009, 0.072" (1.83mm) extra high strength (EHS) material meet all of the requirements of this specification.
