5、013-12 Superseding AMS2649C Etch Inspection of High Strength Steel Parts RATIONALE This revision results from a Five Year Review. Glass bead is added as acceptable media for use in surface activation, and alkaline clean solution is added as a rinse solution in lieu of sodium hydroxide solution. 1. S

6、COPE 1.1 Purpose This specification establishes the requirements for etch inspection of steel parts to detect overheating (rehardening or overtempering) caused by abusive machining or grinding, or to detect localized discontinuous carburization. 1.2 Application This process has been used typically f

7、or carburized parts and for bare low-alloy steel parts having tensile strength of 180 ksi (1241 MPa) and higher, but usage is not limited to those applications. The process can also be used to detect abusive grinding or machining in heat treatable steels of lower core hardness. This process may remo

8、ve 0.0001 to 0.0005 inch (2.5 to 12.7 micrometers) from the surface of the part. 1.3 Classification Etchants used in this specification are classified as follows: Type 1 - Nitric acid in water or alcohol with an anti-smut additive Type 2 - Nitric acid in water or alcohol Type 3 - Ammonium persulfate

9、 in water 1.3.1 Type 1 and Type 2 etchants may be used interchangeably. Type 1 immersion or Type 3 swabbing method shall be used when the part cannot be hydrogen embrittlement relieved. 1.3.2 Type 3 etchant shall be applied by swabbing and only used when authorized by the cognizant engineering organ

10、ization. Type 3 is not as sensitive for detecting grinding burns as Type 1 or Type 2.
