SCOPE 1.1 Purpose This specification

10、 and its supplementary detail specifications establish the requirements for electrodeposition of metals by brush plating. 1.2 Application This process has been used typically to improve surface properties such as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and brazeability or to repair damaged, worn, or

11、mismachined parts, but usage is not limited to such applications. This process is particularly useful for plating localized areas on-site, especially on large parts or assemblies, and for minimizing masking. 1.3 Safety - Hazardous Materials While the materials, methods, applications, and processes d

12、escribed or referenced in this specification may involve the use of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the hazards which may be involved in such use. It is the sole responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and proper use of any hazardous materials and to t

13、ake necessary, precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of all personnel involved. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS The issue of the following documents in effect on the date of the purchase order forms a part of this specification to the extent specified herein.

Temperatures to which parts are heated shall be such that maximum stress relief is obtained w

24、ithout reducing hardness of parts below drawing limits, but, unless otherwise specified, not less than 275 F (135 C) for not less than 5 hours for parts having hardness of 55 HRC or higher or not less than 375 F (191 C) for not less than 4 hours for other parts. Residual tensile stresses have been f

25、ound to be damaging during plating. 3.3.1.1 For parts, excluding nitrided parts, having a hardness of 55 HRC and above, including carburized and induction hardened parts, stress relieve at 275 F 25 (135 C 14) for a minimum of 5 hours. 3.3.1.2 For parts having a hardness less than 55 HRC, stress reli

26、eve at 375 F 25 (191 C 14) for a minimum of 4 hours. Nitrided parts fall into this category. Higher temperatures shall be used only when specified or approved by the cognizant engineering organization. 3.3.1.3 For peened parts: If stress relief temperatures above 375 F (191 C) are elected, the stres

27、s relieve shall be performed prior to peening or the cognizant engineering organization shall be consulted and shall approve the stress relief temperature. 3.3.1.4 Assemblies shall be treated in a manner acceptable to the cognizant engineering organization. 3.3.2 The plating shall be applied over a

28、surface free from water breaks. The cleaning procedure shall not produce pitting or intergranular attack of the basis metal and shall preserve dimensional requirements. 3.3.3 For parts that are to be plated all over, electrical contact locations shall be acceptable to purchaser. For parts that are n

29、ot to be plated all over, locations shall be in areas on which plating is not required.

Tape, 1-inch (25 mm) wide or wider, having adhesive strength of not less than 60 ounces per inch (0.66 N/mm) of width, shall be firmly applied to the plated area. It shall then be pulled manually from the plated area at appro

36、ximately 90 degrees to the plated surface in one sharp movement.

42、sis metal on plated surfaces after continuous exposure to salt spray, in accordance with ASTM B 117, for 48 hours, -0, +1, unless another period is specified. Where plating is used only to aid brazing or where used only for dimensional restoration, corrosion testing may be waived if acceptable to th

43、e cognizant engineering organization. 3.5.3.6 Hydrogen Embrittlement The plating process shall not cause hydrogen embrittlement in steel parts 36 HRC and over determined in accordance with 4.3.3.3. 3.6 Quality To the unaided eye, the plating shall be continuous and free from plating defects such as
