1 Ratings A through E are relative ratings in decreasing order of merit, based on exposures to sodium chloride solution by intermittent spraying or immersion. Alloys with A and B ratings can be used in industrial and seacoast atmospheres without protection. Alloys with C, D and E ratings generally should be protected at least on faying surfaces.
2 Stress-corrosion cracking ratings are based on service experience and laboratory tests of specimens exposed to the 3.5% sodium chloride alternate immersion test.
A= No known instance of failure in service or in laboratory tests.
B= No known instance of failure in service; limited failures in laboratory tests of short transverse specimens.
C= Service failures with sustained tension stress acting in short transverse direction relative to grain structure; limited failures in laboratory tests of long transverse specimens.
D= Limited service failures with sustained longitudinal or long transverse

3 Ratings A through D for Workability (cold), A through E for Machinability and A through C for Anodize Response, are relative ratings in decreasing order of merit.
4 Ratings A through D for Weldability and Brazeability are relative ratings defined as follows:
A= Generally weldable by all commercial procedures and methods.
B= Weldable with special techniques or for specific applications that justify preliminary trails or testing to develop welding procedure and weld performance.
C= Limited weldability because of crack sensitivity or loss in resistance to corrosion and mechanical properties.
D= No commonly used welding methods have been developed.
