28、nce with ASTM E399 for all specimen locations. To facilitate determination of fracture toughness, a tensile specimen taken immediately adjacent to the location of the fracture toughness specimen is required. Fracture planes of tensile and KICspecimens shall be in the same direction. If a tensile spe

29、cimen cannot be excised from the forging with the fracture plane in the same direction as that of the fracture toughness specimen, the orientation of the tensile specimen shall be as approved by purchaser. 3.5.1.2.1 Reduction of Test Data Test data shall be reduced in accordance with ASTM E399 to ca

30、lculate a KQ value and to determine if a valid KICvalue has been measured. Tensile coupons shall be provided for validity verification wherever fracture toughness coupons are specified. In checking for validity, the yield strength value used shall be yield strength measured for the same forging from

31、 which the fracture toughness specimen was obtained. Not less than one tensile specimen taken immediately adjacent to the location of the fracture toughness specimen is required. Fracture planes of tensile and KICspecimen shall be in the same direction. If a tensile specimen cannot be excised from t

32、he forging with the fracture plane in the same direction as that of the fracture toughness specimen, the orientation of the tensile specimen shall be approved by the purchaser. 3.5.1.3 Microstructure Shall consist of primary alpha phase in a matrix of aged beta phase when examined at 500X magnificat

33、ion. An unbroken, continuous alpha phase network along prior beta phase grain boundaries in any field of view is not acceptable unless purchaser and producer have agreed that such phase is acceptable and tensile and fracture toughness properties are met. 3.5.1.3.1 No beta flecks shall be visible in

34、material that has been heated up to 1425 F (774 C) or 45 F (25 C) below the beta transus temperature of the matrix, whichever is higher when examined at a magnification of 50 to 100X (See 8.3). A rejectable beta fleck exhibits no primary alpha in a 0.030 x 0.030 inch (0.762 x 0.762 mm) or equivalent

35、 area. inch mSAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4984F Page 5 of 8 3.5.1.4 Macrostructure and Grain Flow The grain flow pattern of macroetch sections taken from designated areas of a forging during initial evaluation shall generally conform to the part shape. If areas are not designated by purchaser, two sections

36、shall be taken normal to the parting line in areas having the greatest section variation. If standards are not established, photomacrographs of acceptable macrostructure of a forging from the first production lot shall be the standard. Presence of laps, seams, folds, etc. is not acceptable. 3.5.1.5

37、Surface Contamination Forgings shall be free of any oxygen-rich layer, such as alpha case, or other surface contamination, determined as in 3.5.1.5.1, by microscopic examination at not lower than 100X magnification, or by other method agreed upon by purchaser and producer. 3.5.1.5.1 Microhardness Di

38、fferential A surface hardness more than 40 points higher than the subsurface hardness, determined in accordance with ASTM E384 on the Knoop scale using a 200-gram load, is evidence of unacceptable surface contamination. 3.5.2 Forging Stock When a sample of stock is forged to a test coupon having a d

39、egree of mechanical working not greater than the forging and heat treated as in 3.4, specimens taken from the heat treated coupon shall conform to the requirements of 3.5.1.1. If a sample taken directly from the forging stock and heat treated as in 3.4 conforms to the requirements of 3.5.1.1, then t

40、esting of a forged coupon is not required. 3.6 Quality The product, as received by purchaser, shall be uniform in quality and condition, sound, and free from foreign material and from imperfections detrimental to usage of the product. 3.6.1 Grain flow of die forgings, except in areas that contain fl

41、ash-line end grain, shall follow the general contour of the forgings showing no evidence of reentrant grain flow. 3.7 Production, distribution, and procurement of metal stock shall comply with AS6279. This requirement becomes effective September 1, 2016. 4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS 4.1 Responsib
