Heat Treatment6.1 Castings shall be heat treated in accordance with therequirement

20、s in Table 2.NOTE 1Proper heat treatment of these alloys is usually necessary toenhance corrosion resistance and, in some cases, to meet mechanicalproperties. Minimum heat-treat temperatures are specified; however, it issometimes necessary to heat treat at higher temperatures, hold for someminimum t

21、ime at temperature, and then rapidly cool the castings in orderto enhance the corrosion resistance and meet mechanical properties.6.2 When Class 1 is specified, grades CY40 and M25S shallbe supplied in the as-cast condition. When Class 2 is specified,grades CY40 and M25S shall be supplied in the sol

The alloyfamilies are:(1) Nickel CZ100(2) Nickel-copper M35-1, M35-2, M30C, M30H, M25S(3) Nickel-molybdenum N12MV, N7M, N3M(4) Nickel

The analysis shall be made from arepresentative sample taken during the pouring of the master

Test Methods E30 or E38 shall be used if TestMethods E76 or E354 do not include a method for someelement present in the material.8. Tensile Properties8.1

26、 One tension test shall be made from each master heatexcept for grades M25S and CY5SnBiM when the master heatis used to pour the castings. One tension test shall be madefrom each melt except for grades M25S and CY5SnBiM. Testresults shall conform to the tensile requirements specified inTable 3. Test

27、 bars shall be poured in special blocks from thesame heat as the castings represented.8.2 The bar from which the test specimen is taken shall beheat treated in production furnaces to the same procedure as thecastings it represents. If the castings are not heat treated, thebar used for the test speci

28、men must not be heat treated.8.3 Test specimens may be cut from castings, at the produc-ers option, instead of from test bars.8.4 When castings are produced by methods other thaninvestment process, tension test coupons shall be machined tothe form and dimension shown in Fig. 8 of, and tested inaccor

29、dance with, Test Methods E8.8.4.1 When castings are produced by the investmentprocess, test specimens in accordance with Specification A732/A732M shall be used for measurement of tensile properties.8.5 If any specimen shows defective machining or developsflaws, it may be discarded and another substi

31、d reduction ofarea. In the special case of rounding the number “5” when noadditional numbers other than “0” follow the “5,” roundingshall be done in the direction of the specification limits iffollowing Practice E29 would cause rejection of material.9. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 Critical

32、 surfaces of all castings intended for corrosion-resistant service shall be cleaned. Cleaning may be accom-plished by blasting with clean sand or metallic corrosion-resistant shot or by other approved methods.10. Quality10.1 The castings shall not be peened, plugged, or impreg-nated to stop leaks.10

33、.2 Internal chills and chaplets may be used in the manu-facture of castings. However, the chills, chaplets, and affectedcast material must be completely removed.11. Repair by Welding11.1 Repairs shall be made by using a welding procedureand operators capable of producing sound welds. The compo-sitio

34、n of deposited weld metal shall be similar to that of thecastings.11.2 Weld repairs shall be considered major in the case of acasting that has leaked on hydrostatic test or when the depth ofthe cavity after preparation for repair exceeds 20 % of theA494/A494M 17a2TABLE1ChemicalRequirementsABCAlloyFa
