ASTM D1280 Metal Test Specimens

Metal test specimens used in ASTM D1280 (Total Immersion Corrosion Test for Soak Tank Metal Cleaners). These specimens are made with the same metal, alloy, and surface finish as the metal tank where the test cleaner is used. Note that this test method is not intended for testing with aluminum alloys. Each test specimen is approximately 0.7" x 3.34" x 0.40". The testing is done with two or more replicates.
