This specification covers selected aluminum, aluminum alloy, and aluminum clad steel cable shielding stock, both uncoated and coated, for applications such as electrostatic or electromagnetic shielding for insulated power, control, instrumentation and communication cables (including coaxial cable).
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee B07 on Light Metals and Alloys, this specification was withdrawn in January 2015 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
РефератThis specification covers selected uncoated or coated aluminum, aluminum alloy, and aluminum clad steel cable shielding stocks used for electrostatic or electromagnetic shielding in insulated power, control, instrumentation, and communication cables including coaxial cables. Claddings may be bonded to the base metal by any method, provided it can produce a clad material that conforms to the requirements. Aluminum materials should be furnished in Temper 0 while aluminum clad steel materials should be in the annealed temper. When specified, cable shielding stock may be coated with a protective plastic coating on one or both sides.
