1、Designation: A181/A181M 06 (Reapproved 2011)Standard Specification forCarbon Steel Forgings, for General-Purpose Piping1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A181/A181M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision,
2、 the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification2cover
3、s nonstandard as-forged fit-tings, valve components, and parts for general service. Forg-ings made to this specification are limited to a maximumweight of 10 000 lb 4540 kg. Larger forgings may be orderedto Specification A266/A266M.1.2 Two classes of material are covered, designated asClasses 60 and
4、 70, respectively, and are classified in accor-dance with their mechanical properties as specified in 6.1.1.3 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand SI units. However, unless the order specifies the applicable“M” specification designation (SI units), the material shall befurnish
5、ed to inch-pound units.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other.
6、Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the specifi-cation.2.

General Requirements and Ordering Information3.1 Product furnished to this specification shall conform tothe requirements of Specification A961/A961M, including anysupplementary requirements tha
8、t are indicated in the purchaseorder. Failure to comply with the requirements of SpecificationA961/A961M constitutes non-conformance with this specifi-cation.3.2 It is the purchasers responsibility to specify in thepurchase order all ordering information necessary to purchasethe needed material. Exa
9、mples of such information include butare not limited to the ordering information in SpecificationA961/A961M and the following:3.2.1 Supplementary requirements, and3.2.2 Additional requirements (See 4.3, 9.1, 10.2, 12.1, and12.2).3.3 If the requirements of this specification are in conflictwith the r
10、equirements of Specification A961/A961M, therequirements of this specification shall prevail.4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 Except for flanges of all types, hollow, cylindricallyshaped parts may be machined from hot-rolled or forged bar,provided that the axial length of the part is approximatelypar
11、allel to the metal flow lines of the stock. Other parts,excluding flanges of all types, up to and including NPS 4 maybe machined from hot-rolled or forged bar. Elbows, returnbends, tees, and header tees shall not be machined directlyfrom bar stock.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of AST

15、as permitted in 4.1, the finished product shall bea forging as defined in the Terminology section (exclusively) ofSpecification A788/A788M.4.3 When specified in the order, the manufacturer shallsubmit for approval of the purchaser a sketch showing theshape of the rough forging before machining.4.4 F
16、orgings shall be protected against sudden or too rapidcooling from the rolling or forging while passing through thecritical range.4.5 Heat treatment is neither required nor prohibited, butwhen applied, heat treatment shall consist of tempering,annealing, normalizing, or normalizing and tempering.5.
17、Chemical Composition5.1 An analysis of each heat shall be made by the manufac-turer to determine the percentages of the elements specified inTable 1. The chemical composition thus determined shallconform to the requirements in Table 1.6. Mechanical Properties6.1 The material shall conform to the req
18、uirements as totensile properties prescribed in Table 2.7. Number of Tests7.1 One tension test shall be made from each heat.7.2 If any test specimen is defectively machined, it may bediscarded and another specimen substituted.8. Retests8.1 When one or more representative test specimens do notconform
19、 to specification requirements for the tested character-istic, only a single retest for each nonconforming characteristicmay be performed to establish product acceptability. Retestsshall be performed on twice the number of representativespecimens that were originally nonconforming. When anyretest sp
20、ecimen does not conform to specification requirementsfor the characteristic in question, the lot represented by thatspecimen shall be rejected, heat-treated or reheat-treated inaccordance with 4.5, and tested in accordance with Sections 6and 7.9. Reports of Testing9.1 Upon request of the purchaser i
21、n the contract or order, areport of the test results and chemical analyses shall befurnished. The specification designation included on reports oftesting shall include year of issue and revision letter, if any.10. Repair by Welding10.1 Repair welding, by the manufacturer, is permissible forparts mad
22、e to dimensional standards such as those of ANSI orequivalent standards.10.2 Prior approval of the purchaser shall be required toweld repair special parts made to the purchasers requirements.10.3 The composition of the weld deposits shall be similarto the base metal and in accordance with the proced
23、urequalification for the applicable material. Welding shall beaccomplished with a weld procedure designed to produce lowhydrogen in the weldment. Short-circuit gas metal arc weldingis permissible only with the approval of the purchaser.11. Marking of Forgings11.1 Identification marks consisting of t
24、he manufacturerssymbol or name, designation of service rating, Specificationnumber, class, and size shall be legibly forged or stamped oneach forging, and in such a position as not to injure theusefulness of the forgings.11.2 Bar CodingIn addition to the requirements in 11.1,bar coding is acceptable
25、 as a supplementary identificationmethod. The purchaser may specify in the order a specific barcoding system to be used. The bar coding system, if applied atthe discretion of the supplier, should be consistent with one ofthe published industry standards for bar coding. If used onsmall parts the bar
26、code may be applied to the box or asubstantially applied tag.12. Certificate of Compliance12.1 When specified in the purchase order or contract, aproducers or suppliers certification shall be furnished to thepurchaser that the material was manufactured, sampled, tested,and inspected in accordance wi
27、th this specification and hasbeen found to meet the requirements. The specification desig-nation included on certificates of compliance shall include yearof issue and revision letter, if any.12.2 When specified in the purchase order or contract, areport of the test results shall be furnished.13.
