43、tion.Carbon - See surface carbon.Case hardnessFor carburize and hardened gearing, unlessotherwise specified, the case hardness is deter-mined at a location 1/2 of tooth height (or from arepresentative test coupon).For induction or flame hardened gearing, unlessotherwise specified, the case hardness

44、is deter-mined at a location 1/4 of tooth height above theroot.For nitrided gearing, unless otherwise specified,the case hardness is determined at a location 1/2of tooth height (or from a process control orrepresentative test coupon).Chemistry - Analyzed per ASTM A751.Core hardness - Per a standard

45、or superficialhardness testing method listed under “hardness”.Decarburization - Per any of three methods:Method 1 - File hardnessThe flanks of a tooth are file hardness tested perSAE J864 or ISO 6336-5, annex D with lack of filehardness indicating possible decarburization ornon-martensitic structure

46、s.Method 2 - Reduction of hardnessSurface hardness readings are taken in the samearea using two different hardness testing loads,such as HRC and HR15N with major loads of 150kg and 15 kg respectively. The two sets of read-ings are compared using a standard hardnessconversion chart, such as ASTM A370

47、, ASTME140 or ISO 6336-5, annex C. Decarburization isindicated by a lower converted hardness for thelighter load compared to that from the heavierload, presuming that proper hardness testingtechniques were used for both sets of tests.Method 3 - Metallographic evaluationA metallographic specimen is p
