About This Item
ASTM F799 is the ASTM standard that defines the
Standard Specification for Cobalt-28 Chromium-6 Molybdenum Alloy Forgings for Surgical Implants (UNS R31537, R31538, R31539)
, giving buyers and technical teams a clear reference for this implant material. It is used to support material selection, procurement, and quality review for forged components intended for surgical applications. By setting a common specification, ASTM F799 helps improve consistency, traceability, and confidence when evaluating cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy forgings.Overview of ASTM F799
This ASTM standard focuses on forged cobalt-28 chromium-6 molybdenum alloy used for surgical implants, identified by UNS R31537, R31538, and R31539. Its purpose is to provide a shared technical basis for the specification of these forgings, helping ensure that material supplied for implant-related use is described and assessed consistently. For engineering, purchasing, and quality control teams, ASTM F799 is a practical document for aligning material expectations with implant manufacturing requirements.
Common use cases of ASTM F799
ASTM F799 is commonly referenced when procuring or evaluating forged cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy material for surgical implant components. It may be used by manufacturers, suppliers, and quality departments that need a formal specification for these forgings during product development, incoming inspection, or compliance review. The standard is especially relevant where implant materials must be identified by alloy designation and checked against defined technical requirements before further processing or release.
Benefits of using ASTM F799
Using ASTM F799 helps support more consistent communication between material suppliers, manufacturers, and compliance teams. It can reduce ambiguity in procurement by clearly identifying the alloy and product form covered by the specification. The standard also supports quality control and product evaluation by providing a recognized benchmark for review. For organizations working with surgical implant forgings, ASTM F799 can help improve traceability, consistency, and confidence in material selection.
