8、ions, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National Standards are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents that are inclu

9、ded in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other govern-mental bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWSstandards must be approved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before they can bec

10、ome a part ofthose laws and regulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other documentthat invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirementsof an AWS standard must be by agreement between

11、 the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. While AWS administers the processand establishes rules to promote fairness in the

12、 development of consensus, it does not independently test, evaluate, orverify the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.AWS disclaims liability for any injury to persons or to property, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, whetherspecial, indi

13、rect, consequential or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or relianceon this standard. AWS also makes no guaranty or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any informationpublished herein.In issuing and making this standard available, AWS is not unde

14、rtaking to render professional or other services for or onbehalf of any person or entity. Nor is AWS undertaking to perform any duty owed by any person or entity to someoneelse. Anyone using these documents should rely on his or her own independent judgment or, as appropriate, seek theadvice of a co

15、mpetent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances.This standard may be superseded by the issuance of new editions. Users should ensure that they have the latest edition.Publication of this standard does not authorize infringement of any patent or trade na

16、me. Users of this standard acceptany and all liabilities for infringement of any patent or trade name items. AWS disclaims liability for the infringement ofany patent or product trade name resulting from the use of this standard.Finally, AWS does not monitor, police, or enforce compliance with this

17、standard, nor does it have the power to do so.On occasion, text, tables, or figures are printed incorrectly, constituting errata. Such errata, when discovered, are postedon the AWS web page (www.aws.org).Official interpretations of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only be obtai

18、ned by sending a request,in writing, to the Managing Director, Technical Services Division, American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road,Miami, FL 33126 (see Annex D). With regard to technical inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinionson AWS standards may be rendered. However, such op

It must be reviewedevery five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comments (recommendations, additions,or deletions) and any pertine

21、nt data that may be of use in improving this standard are required and should be addressedto AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS C6 Committee on Friction Weldingand the author of the comments will be informed of the Committees response to the comments. Guest

22、s are invited toattend all meetings of the AWS C6 Committee on Friction Welding to express their comments verbally.

26、WS C6.2/C6.2M:2006ForewordThis foreword is not a part of AWS C6.2/C6.2M:2006, Specification for FrictionWelding of Metals, but is included for informational purposes only.This Specification for Friction Welding is the second publication of the AWS C6 Committee on Friction Welding. Thecommittee was f

27、ormed to recognize, codify, develop, and advance the process of friction welding.The committees first publication, ANSI/AWS C6.1-89, Recommended Practices for Friction Welding, was completedand published in 1989. It was the culmination of a monumental task: assembling and reducing into a concise for

28、m thetechnology and history of friction welding.It was recognized at that time that a second document, a specification, would be required. A task force from within theAWS C6 Committee was formed to prepare a specification for approval.The purpose of this specification is to help ensure that the weld

29、s resulting from the use of the process meet the servicerequirements for which they are intended.This document clearly and accurately describes the essential technical requirements for a friction weld. It specifies thequalification of procedures, methods, and equipment necessary to meet its technica

30、l requirements and safe use. Thisspecification is intended to be used when referenced by other specifications or contract documents.Comments and suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent to the Secretary,AWS C6 Committee on Friction Welding, American Welding S

31、ociety, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126.Official interpretations of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to the Managing Director, Technical Services Division, American Welding Society.
