What is ASTM B550/ASME SB550

The standard ASTM B550/ASME SB550 describes the requirements for Zirconium and Zirconium alloys in the form of bars and wires. These requirements include, among others, the desired chemical composition, mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation, and tolerances on dimensions and surface condition.

These standards are applied worldwide to ensure the quality and reliability of Zirconium products within technical applications where performance under pressure is essential. Compliance with these standards forms a basis for consistent product quality, especially when processing into components in industrial environments.
