Foreword

ISO 18273.2004 Welding consumables -- Wire electrodes, wires and rods for

welding of aluminium and aluminium alloys -- Classification (English edition)

was modified and referenced in this Standard. This Standard was redrafted in

accordance with ISO 18273.2004.

Considering the actual situation of aluminium and aluminium alloy wires and

rods in China, the following technical contents are modified for ISO 18273.2004.

— EN ISO 544, ISO 31-0.1992 and ISO 14344 have been removed from the

normative references;

— Annex A and comparison table of major international standard models

have been added;

— Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, and Figure 1 have been added.

For ease of use, this Standard has also made the following editorial changes.

— The name of this Standard has been modified to "Aluminium and

aluminium alloy wires and rods";

— In terms of standard structure, the contents of inspection rules, marking,

and quality certificate have been added;

— "This International Standard" has been modified to "this Standard";

— The comma "," as a decimal point has been replaced with the decimal

point ".";

— Foreword of the International Standard has been removed.

This Standard is a revision of GB/T 10858-1989 Aluminium and aluminium alloy

wires and rods. Compared with GB/T 10858-1989, the main changes are as

follows.

— The classification and model division of wires and rods adopt the method

of representation in ISO 18273.2004, and the number of models of wires

and rods has increased by 23;

— The chemical compositions of wires and rods are consistent with the

requirements of ISO 18273;

— The dimensions and packaging form of wires and rods have been

adjusted according to the requirements of ISO 18273;

— Annex A describes the correspondence between the major international
