ASTM B633 2015 Released

ASTM B633, “Standard Specification for Electrodeposited Coatings of Zinc on Iron and Steel,” has just been updated.  The new 2015 Edition replaces the ASTM B633 2013 Edition which is now obsolete.  This is an technical revision to an essential plating spec, used throughout industry.  Here at Document Center we’ve sold hundreds of copies of the document over the years.  You’ll want a copy if you use this specification.

What exactly does ASTM B633 2015 address?  The specification covers the materials and processes to use for the electrodeposition of zinc coatings on iron or steel goods to protect them from corrosion.  It also includes information on the various tests you’ll use to confirm thickness, adhesion, corrosion resistance and so on.  This means the coating requirements and the sampling process (including specimen preparation) are part of the publication as well.

What’s new in the ASTM B633 2015 Edition?  An additional test has been added to give you another option when it comes to determining the thickness of the coating.  This means that there is one more ASTM standard included in the referenced document section as well.
