21、red, etched, and visually examined metallographically at a magnification not to exceed 100X. The product shall not show a layer of complete (ferrite) or partial decarburization exceeding the limits of Table 2.3.3.2.2 Hardness Traverse Method The total depth of decarburization shall be determined by

22、a traverse method using microhardness testing in accordance with ASTM E384, at a magnification not exceeding 100X, conducted on a hardened but untempered specimen protected during heat treatment to prevent changes in surface carbon content. Tempering is generally not recommended, but if tempered, th

23、e tempering temperature shall be not higher than 300 F (149 C). Depth of decarburization is defined as the perpendicular distance from the surface to the depth under that surface where there is not further increase in hardness. Such measurements shall be far enough away from any adjacent surface to

24、be uninfluenced by any decarburization on the adjacent surface. Acceptance shall be as listed in Table 2.3.3.2.3 When determining the depth of decarburization, it is permissible to disregard local areas provided the decarburization of such areas does not exceed the limits in Table 2 by more than 0.0

25、05 inch (0.13 mm) and the width is 0.065 inches (1.65 mm) or less.3.3.2.4 In case of dispute, the total depth of decarburization determined using the microhardness traverse method shall govern.SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS6356H Page 4 of 6Table 2A - Maximum total depth of decarburization limits, inch/pound
