Designation: B 505/B 505M – 05

Standard Specification for

Copper Alloy Continuous Castings1
This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 505/B 505M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.
A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.

1. Scope*
1.1 This specification establishes requirements for continuously cast rod, bar, tube, and shapes produced from copper
alloys with nominal compositions as listed in Table 1.2
1.2 Castings produced to this specification may be manufactured for and supplied from stock. In such cases the
manufacturer shall maintain heat traceability to specific manufacturing date and chemical analysis.
1.3 The values stated in inch/pound or SI units are to be
regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each
system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system
shall be used independently of the other. Combining values
from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the
specification.
1.4 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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents
2.1 The following documents in the current issue of the
Annual Book of ASTM Standards form a part of this specification to the extent referenced herein:
2.2 ASTM Standards: 3
B 208 Practice for Preparing Tension Test Specimens for
Copper Alloys for Sand, Permanent Mold, Centrifugal and
Continuous Castings
B 824 Specification for General Requirements for Copper
Alloy Castings

This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B05 on Copper
and Copper Alloys and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee B05.05 on
Castings and Ingots for Remelting.
Current edition approved Mar. 1, 2005. Published April 2005. Originally
approved in 1970. Last previous edition approved in 2004 as B 505/B 505M – 04.

The UNS system for copper and copper alloys (see Practice E 527) is a simple
expansion of the former standard designation system accomplished by the addition
of a prefix “C” and a suffix “00”. The suffix can be used to accommodate
composition variations of the base alloy.
