Checking the active ASTM practice, its public scope, current revision, purchase route, and seam-engineering boundary
What the source establishes
ASTM lists D6193-16(2025) as active and last updated November 10, 2025. The 142-page practice covers requirements and characteristics of stitches and seams, identifies their category, formation, and general purpose, separates stitch and seam classification sections, and includes seam-assembly recommendations. Its public significance statement says seam engineering depends on material, seam and stitch type, density, thread tension and strength or elasticity, end use, and operator skill.
The linked register or record system is maintained by the body responsible for the law, standard, certificate, approval, or program record it exposes.
What this record does not prove
The public product page exposes the current designation, active state, scope, significance, length, and purchase route, not the complete licensed drawings or recommendations. The practice does not select a construction for a specific product, validate an ambiguous code, guarantee supplier repeatability, set every process variable or acceptance value, or establish safety and regulatory suitability. Use the purchased edition with product-specific engineering, samples, tests, and approval.
A reachable official source can verify identity, stated scope, and access. It cannot silently become an audit of workmanship, delivery, labor conditions, or suitability for your project.
