Full title and description
ASTM A167-99(2009) — "Standard Specification for Stainless and Heat-Resisting Chromium‑Nickel Steel Plate, Sheet, and Strip." The specification establishes chemical and mechanical requirements and general delivery requirements for chromium‑nickel stainless and heat‑resisting steels supplied in plate, sheet, and strip forms.
Abstract
This specification covers stainless and heat‑resisting chromium‑nickel steel plate, sheet, and strip, specifying required chemical composition (elements such as C, Mn, P, S, Si, Cr, Ni, Mo) and mechanical properties (tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, hardness). Values are stated in inch‑pound units as the standard. The document was reapproved in 2009 (1999 R09) and has since been withdrawn.
General information
- Status: Withdrawn (Cancelled / Withdrawn — no replacement).
- Publication date: 1999 edition (A167‑99), reapproved 2009 (1999 R09 / publication date listed as May 1, 2009 in bibliographic records).
- Publisher: ASTM International (American Society for Testing and Materials).
- ICS / categories: Flat steel products and semi-products; stainless steels — ICS codes referenced in records include 77.140.50 and 77.140.20.
- Edition / version: A167‑99 (reapproved R09) — often shown as ASTM A167-99(2009) or A167-99R09.
- Number of pages: Bibliographic records list a short specification (commonly shown as 2 pages in summary records).
Scope
The specification applies to stainless and heat‑resisting chromium‑nickel steel plate, sheet, and strip intended for general corrosion‑resisting and heat‑resisting applications. It establishes chemical composition limits and minimum mechanical property requirements for applicable grades and states inch‑pound units as the standard. Note: several grades historically covered by A167 were later removed from this specification and are supplied under Specification A240/A240M; users are advised to reference A240/A240M for those grades.
Key topics and requirements
- Material forms covered: plate, sheet, and strip (stainless and heat‑resisting chromium‑nickel steels).
- Chemical composition limits for elements such as carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, chromium, nickel, and molybdenum.
- Mechanical property requirements: tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness criteria.
- Units and tolerances: inch‑pound units designated as standard; typical mill tolerances and finish/condition notes for sheet/plate.
- Historical grade alignment: many grades once covered by A167 were consolidated or moved to A240/A240M for broader, modern use.
Typical use and users
ASTM A167 was used by specifying engineers, architects, material purchasers, mills, and quality/inspection personnel when selecting or verifying stainless and heat‑resisting chromium‑nickel plate, sheet, and strip for general applications. Today it remains relevant mainly for interpreting older drawings and procurement documents; current projects typically reference ASTM A240/A240M (and related finish/inspection standards) instead.
Related standards
Commonly related and successor standards include ASTM A240 / A240M (chromium and chromium‑nickel stainless steel plate, sheet, and strip — widely used today), ASTM A480 (general requirements for flat-rolled stainless and heat‑resisting steel plate, sheet, and strip), and other ASTM steel product specifications. Many grades historically in A167 were moved to A240/A240M.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: ASTM A167‑99(2009) is the Standard Specification for Stainless and Heat‑Resisting Chromium‑Nickel Steel Plate, Sheet, and Strip — a short ASTM specification that set chemical and mechanical requirements for these materials.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers stainless and heat‑resisting chromium‑nickel steel in plate, sheet, and strip forms, specifying composition limits (C, Mn, P, S, Si, Cr, Ni, Mo) and minimum mechanical properties (tensile, yield, elongation, hardness); inch‑pound units are the standard.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Engineers, architects, procurement/specification writers, steel mills, and quality/inspection staff — primarily for reading, interpreting, or verifying materials on legacy documents and older contracts. For new specifications, users generally reference current standards such as A240/A240M.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: It is withdrawn (cancelled) — withdrawn with no direct replacement on or about April 2014 — and therefore not a current active ASTM specification. Many grades once covered by A167 are now supplied under ASTM A240/A240M.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: A167 is part of the historical suite of flat‑rolled and sheet/plate steel specifications maintained under ASTM committees for stainless and heat‑resisting steels; related documents include A240/A240M and A480, and it appears in committee A01 bibliographic records.
Q: What are the key keywords?
A: stainless, heat‑resisting, chromium‑nickel, plate, sheet, strip, composition, tensile, yield, A167, A240, withdrawn.
