The product sha

34、ll not show a layer of complete (ferrite) or partial decarburization exceeding the limits of Table 3. 3.3.4.4.2 Hardness Traverse Method The total depth of decarburization shall be determined by a traverse method using microindentation hardness testing in accordance with ASTM E384, at a magnificatio

35、n not exceeding 100X, conducted on a hardened but untempered specimen protected during heat treatment to prevent changes in surface carbon content.

36、n hardness. Such measurements shall be far enough away from any adjacent surface to be uninfluenced by any decarburization on the adjacent surface. Acceptance shall be as listed in Table 3. 3.3.4.4.3 When determining the depth of decarburization, it is permissible to disregard local areas provided t

37、he decarburization of such areas does not exceed the above limits by more than 0.005 inch (0.13 mm) and the width is 0.065 inch (1.65 mm) or less. 3.3.4.4.4 In case of dispute, the total depth of decarburization determined using the microindentation hardness traverse method shall govern. 3.4 Quality

38、 The product, as received by purchaser, shall be uniform in quality and condition, sound, and free from foreign materials and from imperfections detrimental to usage of the product. 3.4.1 Steel shall be aircraft quality conforming to AMS2301. 3.4.2 Bars shall, be free from seams, laps, tears, and cr

40、to all applicable requirements of AMS2251. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS6320P Page 6 of 8 4.
