1.1 This specification covers polyvinyl chloride and other conforming organic polymer-coated steel chain-link fabric, coated before weaving. Polyvinyl chloride, polyolefin, and other organic polymer coating hereinafter will be designated as polymer coating.

1.2 Fabric produced from three classes of wire coatings are covered as follows:

1.2.1 Class I consists of polymer coatings extruded over zinc-coated, aluminum-coated, or zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated, or zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire.

1.2.2 Class 2a consists of polymer coating extruded and adhered to zinc-coated, aluminum-coated, or zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire.

1.2.3 Class 2b consists of polymer coating fused and adhered to zinc-coated, aluminum-coated, or zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal alloy-coated steel wire.

1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are provided for information only.
