When tested in accordance with the method specified, the material must have the chemical composition specified in the standard. The particle's average hardness should be between 200 and 300 HV. Malleable iron shot and grit must have a microstructure of temper carbon nodules in a matrix that is predominantly paralytic or tempered martensitic.

Labelling and Marking
