A quantitative measuring system where surface defects and physical test data for copper rod are assigned a numerical value (demerit) is described. Demerit criteria include surface quality, twist test, oxygen content, diameter, annealability, and elongation; test methods are reviewed. Rod classifications, elemental chemical analysis, hydrogen determination, and sulfur determination are also considered.
