I'll take a whack.

A= 0 inclusions

B= 0.5 inclusions

C= 0 inclusions

D= 1.5 inclusions

What's the prize if I'm right? There IS a prize, right???

First of all the one that send you the certificate will know or can find out for you.

The ones that produced the certificate will know for sure. What code has the material been tested to? Its worthwhile obtaining these codes to understand what is being tested and what test results mean.

I understand that there might be a reason not to go to the supplier asking these questions and to seek 3rd party advice, but I stronlgy suggest to seek this out within the metal industry to avoid forms of misunderstanding and in order to have a strong stand in case something goes or is wrong.
