ScopeHardness testing with files consists essentially of cutting or abrading the surface of metal parts, and

5、approximating the hardness by the feel, or extent to which, the file bites into the surface. The term “file hard“means that the surface hardness of the parts tested is such that a new file of proven hardness will not cut thesurface of the material being tested.1.1 ApplicationThis SAE Recommended Pra

6、ctice describes the technique of using a file for testing the surfacehardness of miscellaneous iron and steel parts as designated by engineering specifications. In presenting thisprocedure, it is recognized that it is subjective and that it must be used with considerable judgment on the partof the o

7、perator. File hardness tests may be used when case depth is too shallow for conventional indentationhardness methods, to detect the presence of a soft surface condition on hardened or case-hardened parts, orto check the hardness of sintered parts that may not respond predictably to indentation hardn

11、dness of the lower limit of each standard file range, are required for testingthe standard files.The prover shall be filed with a discarded test file to remove any hard or soft skin that will interfere with theaccuracy of the test. Similar provers hardened to the ranges in Table 1 and above the medi

12、ans can be used toprove the file will cut below and not above the designated file hardness.Testing of files is performed by passing the test file across the 6 mm (1/4 in) thick face of the prover.A 6 mm (1/4 in) prover is specified because at the higher hardnesses, the surface area contacted affects

13、 thecutting area considerably. Narrow areas can be cut more readily than wide areas due to the concentration ofpressure that may be obtained.3.3 Standard Test PiecesStandard test pieces (of the same contour, steel or iron composition, and heattreatment) varying in hardness by small increments, with

14、which the parts being inspected can be compared,are recommended. In the case of steels, each family of SAE steels, namely, 10XX, 20XX, 30XX, and the likeshould be used. They can be heat treated to compare with the operation, such as carburized, quenched, andtemper or carbonitrided, quenched, and tem

15、per.These pieces will enable the operator to learn, with fair accuracy, the feel of the file as it cuts, or does not cut,in relation to the Rockwell hardness.Table 1CHART OF FILES AND PROVERSFile No.Standard ProverHardnessProver CuttingHardnessProver NoncuttingHardnessUntempered65 65 HRC 63 HRC 67 H

Surface ConditionIn testing high surface hardnesses with a file, experience has shown that surfacecondition is important; very smoothly ground surfa

18、ces cannot be touched with a file as readily as surfaces thathave been filed. Sometimes a testing file will cut a prover of a certain steel at, for example, 64 HRC, yet whenthe file is applied to a smoothly ground part made of the same steel and at the same hardness, the part feelsharder. It is impo

19、rtant when comparisons are made that the surface smoothness of the parts being tested bethe same as the standard test piece. The standard test pieces can be made in a series of microfinish of 0.5,1.5, 3.2, and 5 m (20, 60, 125, and 200 in).On surfaces with a microfinish, the direction of the test fi

20、ling across or parallel with the finish direction affectsresults. When filing, the direction of the file in relation to the microfinish should always be the same as thestandard test piece.5. Testing Hardness5.1 Check file against standard prover.5.2 Apply the file to the surface of the part being te

21、sted at such an angle that only a few teeth will engage thesurface at once. Use slow, firm strokes in an effort to feel the manner in which the file cuts or does not cut. Toprolong the life of the file, use as short a stroke as possible.NOTETo standardize pressure, attach specimen to a balance scale

22、 platform and measure the file effortagainst specimen in kilograms (pounds). Application should be between 4.5 and 5.5 kg (10 and 12 lb).5.3 Compare the parts with a standard test piece with a known hardness range. This will assist in determiningwhether the part falls within the range specified by t

23、he engineering specifications. File hardness should notreplace conventional methods where penetrators will not break through surface hardened areas.NOTEDuring the testing of a batch of parts, the files must not be allowed to become so dull as to causedifficulty in discriminating between parts within

24、 specification and those below specification. This canbe prevented by frequent checking against the standard part or prover.5.4 The hardness should be specified according to the Rockwell reading of the file as to the surface requirementsof an iron or steel part. The designation should be “file hard

25、- 65“ for 65 HRC surface; “file hard - 62“ for62HRC and so on.6. Sources of Test Files6.1 Simonds Cutting Tools, Newcomerstown, Ohio.
