    ASTM F436/F436M Type 3 Washer

    ASTM F436 Type 3 washers are weathering steel washers manufactured to chemical composition or a Corrosion Index (CRI) of 6 or higher at the suppliers option. The atmospheric corrosion resistance is required. Type 3 washers having a Copper minimum Heat Analysis of 0.25 B Weathering steel washers may also be manufactured from any of the steels listed in Table 2 of Specification A588/A588M and F3125.5.5 Chemical analyses shall be performed in accordance with Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology A751.
    Product Analysis are not applicable to Type 3 washers furnished to a CRI of 6 or higher calculated from the Heat Analysis.The corrosion Resistance Index shall be calculated from the Heat Analysis in accordance with G101 Prediction Method based on the data of Larabee and Coburn
    When providing Weathering Steels to a calculated corrosion index use the Legault-Leckie formula from Guide G101. Link to online calculator: http://www.astm.org/COMMIT/G01_G101Calcultr1100.xls
