Let's take a closer look at IS 6529:1996 for stainless steel blooms, billets, and slabs used for forgings.

This standard specifies the requirements for stainless steel blooms, billets, and slabs for forgings.

The method of manufacturing steel and products is at the discretion of the manufacturer unless agreed otherwise in order.

Blooms, billets, and slabs can be manufactured by rolling, extrusion, hammering, or processing from ingots or continuously cast slabs, blooms, or billets. After processing ingots or continuously cast product, sufficient discard shall be made to ensure freedom from pipe, harmful segregation, and other harmful defects. Blooms, billets, and slabs must be free of cracks, surface flaws, laps, rough, jagged, and imperfect edges, and any other flaws that could lead to defects in the finished product.

Marking
