1.1 本标准的发布目的如下: 1.1.1 为热浸镀锌行业使用的锌、锌合金和锌中间合金锭制定标准色码，以及 1.1.2 规范这些色码的使用和应用。 1.2 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任熟悉所有危险，包括制造商提供的本产品/材料的适当安全数据表（SDS）中确定的危险，建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并在使用前确定监管限制的适用性。 1.3 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 4.1 这些色码的目的是允许快速识别用于热浸镀锌的合金锭束或巨型锭。除大型钢锭外，本标准并不意味着每个钢锭都要进行颜色编码，而只是意味着每个钢锭束都要进行颜色编码。 4.2 每个钢锭束或大型钢锭均应使用下列适当颜色代码进行标识: 表1 . （A） UNS分配是根据实践确定的 E527 . UNS编号的最后一位数字用于区分成分相似的合金。 （B） 北美系统设计为国际系统的简化版本，消除了领先的黄色条纹。 （C） 颜色代码取自欧洲标准EN 1179。 （D） GALFAN是GALFAN Information Center，股份有限公司的注册商标。 （E） GALVALUME是美国BIEC国际公司的注册商标。 4.3 颜色将作为一条或多条条纹应用于锭束或巨型锭的两个相邻侧面。彩色条纹将应用于包括锭束脚。 4.4 当使用多条条纹时，彩色条纹将从左向右应用，如中所示 表1 . 4.5 如果供应商和最终用户之间没有相反的书面协议，北美色码将是所有北美交易的标准；对于所有其他交易，将使用国际色码。

1.1 This standard is published with the following objectives: 1.1.1 To establish standard color codes for zinc, zinc alloy and zinc master alloy ingot used by the Hot-Dip Galvanizing industry, and 1.1.2 To standardize the use and application of these color codes. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 The purpose of these color codes is to allow for quick identification of ingot bundles or jumbo ingots of alloys used for hot-dip galvanizing. Other than jumbo ingots, this standard is not intended to imply that each ingot will be color-coded but only that each ingot bundle be color coded. 4.2 Each ingot bundle or jumbo ingot shall be identified with the appropriate color code listed in Table 1 . (A) UNS assignations were established in accordance with Practice E527 . The last digit of a UNS number differentiates between alloys of similar composition. (B) The North American system is designed to be a simplified version of the International system by eliminating the leading yellow stripe. (C) Color codes taken from European Standard EN 1179. (D) GALFAN is a registered trademark of the GALFAN Information Center, Inc. (E) GALVALUME is a registered trademark of BIEC International Inc., USA. 4.3 The color will be applied as a stripe, or stripes, on two adjacent sides of the ingot bundle or jumbo ingot. The color stripes will be applied to include the ingot bundle foot. 4.4 When using multiple stripes, the colored stripes will be applied from left to right as indicated in Table 1 . 4.5 In the absence of a written agreement to the contrary between the supplier and end user, the North American color code will be the standard for all North American transactions; for all other transactions the International Color Code will be used.
