1
The certified value listed is the present best estimate of the true value based on the results of an
interlaboratory testing program.
2
The uncertainties listed are based on value judgments of the material inhomogeneity and possible bias in
the determined analytical values. No attempt is made to derive exact statistical measurements of
imprecision because several methods were used in the determination of most constituents.

C(95%) = (t x sd)//n The half-width confidence interval, where t is the appropriate Student's t value, sd is the interlaboratory standard
deviation, and n is the number of acceptable mean values. For further information regarding the confidence interval for the certified value see
ISO Guide 35:2006 section 6.

Analysis: Chemical analyses were made on millings from cross-sections of the bars. The individual values listed
above are the average of each analyst's results.

Analytical Methods: Methods of analysis used were a combination of ASTM Standard Methods E 350, E 415,
E 1019, plus additional ICP, and AA spectrometric methods.

Traceability: The following Certified Reference Materials were used to validate the analytical data listed above:
NIST SRM 32e, 125b, 361 to 365; BAM 039-2, 044-1; BCS 455/1, 456/1, 458/1; ECRM 085-1, 088-1, 096-1,
184-1, 481-1; GBW 01402; IMZ 1.22, 1.74

Homogeneity: This Reference Material was tested for homogeneity using ASTM Standard Method E 826 and found
acceptable. It was also examined by spark atomic emission spectrometry and found to be compatible with the
following NIST Certified Reference Materials: SRM 1222, 1224, 1225, 1261A to 1265A, 1761 to 1767

Form: This Reference Material is machined in the form of a disc, approximately 44 mm diameter and 19 mm thick by
Brammer Standard Company. The bar stock used for this material was produced by hot-rolling billets and annealing.

Certified area: The entire depth of the disc may be used.

Caution: As with any bar material, avoid spark atomic emission spectrometric burns in the center of the disc
(5 mm radius), as some segregation may be present.

Sample Preparation: For best analytical results, use the same method for preparing the analytical surface on all
reference materials as you use for production specimens. Avoid overheating the disc during surface preparation.

Certificate Number: The unique identification number for this certificate of analysis is REV2-64C-012710. This
BS 64C Certificate of Analysis was revised to show the estimate of uncertainty for the certified values. After
reviewing the analytical data, a third decimal place was certified for carbon and chromium, and the niobium, tin, and
titanium values were changed to uncertified to conform to current versions of ISO Guides.

This Reference Material was first revised on April 8, 1992, after testing by additional laboratories in 1991 and 1992
The first Certificate of Analysis for BS 64C was certified on August 9, 1990.

Refer to the “Certificates” section of the Brammer Standard Company website for any revision to this or other
Brammer Standard Company’s Certificates of Analysis.

Safety Notice: A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is not required for this material. This material will not release
or otherwise result in exposure to a hazardous chemical, under normal conditions of use. Inquiries concerning this
Reference Material should be directed to:
