ASTM A480

No. 2D

Cold-rolled , dull finish ;

A smooth , nonreflective cold-rolled annealed  and pickled or descaled finish . This nondiredtional finish is favorable for  retention of lubricants in deep drawing applications . 

No. 2B

Cold-rolled , bright finish ;

A smooth , moderately reflective cold-rolled  annealed and pickled or descaled finish typically produced by imparting a  final light cold-rolled pass using polished rolls . This general-purpose  finish is more readily polished than No.1 or 2D finishes . 

Bright Annealed

A bright cold-rolled finish retained by final  annealing in a controlled atmosphere furnace . 

A smooth , bright , reflective finish typically  produced by cold rolling followed by annealing in a protective astmosphere so  as to prevent osidation and scaling during annealing . 

No. 3

Intermediate polished finish , one or both  sides . 

A linearly textured finish that may be produced  by either mechanical polishing or rolling . Average surface roughness ( Ra)  may generally be up to 40 micro-inches . ……

No. 4

General purpose polished finish , one or both  sides .

A linearly textured finish that may be produced  by either mechanical polishing or rolling . Average surface roughness ( Ra)  may generally be up to 25 micro-inches . ……

No.6

Dull stain finish , Tampico Brushed , one or  both sides . 

This finish has a soft , satin appearance  typically produced by tampico brushing a No.4 finish . 

No. 7

High luster finish . 

Has a high degree of reflectivity . 

No. 8 

Mirror finish . 

This is a highly reflective , smooth finish  typically produced by polishing with successively finer grit abrasives . Then  buffing . 

TR 

Cold-worked to obtain specified properties  . 

The finish resulting from the cold-rolling of  an annealed and descaled or bright annealed product to obtain mechanical  properties higher tahn that of the annealed condition .
