1、Designation: A181/A181M 12A181/A181M 13Standard 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, the
2、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. Scope*1.1 This specification2 covers n
3、onstandard as-forged fittings, valve components, and parts for general service. Forgings madeto this specification are limited to a maximum weight of 10 000 lb 4540 kg. Larger forgings may be ordered to SpecificationA266/A266M.1.2 Two classes of material are covered, designated as Classes 60 and 70,
4、 respectively, and are classified in accordance withtheir mechanical properties as specified in 6.1.1.3 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound units and SI units. However, unless the order specifies the applicable “M”specification designation (SI units), the material shall be furnished t
5、o inch-pound units.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI unitsare shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be usedindependently of the other. Co
6、mbining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.2.

General Requirements and Ordering Information3.1 Product furnished to this specification shall conform to the requirements of Specification A961/A961M, including anysupplementary requirements tha
8、t are indicated in the purchase order. Failure to comply with the requirements of SpecificationA961/A961M constitutes non-conformance with this specification.3.2 It is the purchasers responsibility to specify in the purchase order all ordering information necessary to purchase the neededmaterial. Ex
9、amples of such information include but are not limited to the ordering information in Specification A961/A961M andthe following:3.2.1 Supplementary requirements, and3.2.2 Additional requirements (See 4.3, 9.1, 10.2, 12.1, and 12.2).3.3 If the requirements of this specification are in conflict with t
10、he requirements of Specification A961/A961M, therequirements of this specification shall prevail.4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 Except for flanges of all types, hollow, cylindrically shaped parts may be machined from hot-rolled or forged bar, providedthat the axial length of the part is approximate
11、ly parallel to the metal flow lines of the stock. Other parts, excluding flanges of alltypes, up to and including NPS 4 may be machined from hot-rolled or forged bar. Elbows, return bends, tees, and header tees shallnot be machined directly from bar stock.1 This specification is under the jurisdicti

17、he finished product shall be a forging as defined in the Terminology section (exclusively) ofSpecification A788/A788M.4.3 When specified in the order, the manufacturer shall submit for approval of the purchaser a sketch showing the shape of therough forging before machining.4.4 Forgings shall be pro
18、tected against sudden or too rapid cooling from the rolling or forging while passing through the criticalrange.4.5 Heat treatment is neither required nor prohibited, but when applied, heat treatment shall consist of tempering, annealing,normalizing, or normalizing and tempering.5. Chemical Compositi
19、on5.1 An analysis of each heat shall be made by the manufacturer to determine the percentages of the elements specified in Table1. The chemical composition thus determined shall conform to the requirements in Table 1.6. Mechanical Properties6.1 The material shall conform to the requirements as to te
20、nsile 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 be discarded and another specimen substituted.8. Retests8.1 When one or more representative test specimens do not conform to specificati
