1.2The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.

Note 1:Because the only manufacturer of the applicator know to the committee manufactures to inch-pound units, inch-pound units will be regarded as the standard when referring to the applicator.
