1、Designation: A320/A320M 14A320/A320M 15Standard Specification forAlloy-Steel and Stainless Steel Bolting for Low-TemperatureService1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A320/A320M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case

2、of revision, 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 U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This s

3、pecification2 covers alloy steel bolting for pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings for low-temperature service.See Specification A962/A962M for the definition of bolting. The bars shall be hot-wrought and may be further processed bycenterless grinding or by cold drawing.Austenitic stainles

4、s steel may be solution annealed or annealed and strain-hardened. Whenstrain hardened austenitic stainless steel is ordered, the purchaser should take special care to ensure that Appendix X1 is thoroughlyunderstood.1.2 Several grades are covered, including both ferritic and austenitic steels designa

5、ted L7, B8, etc. Selection will depend ondesign, service conditions, mechanical properties, and low-temperature characteristics. The mechanical requirements of Table 1indicate the diameters for which the minimum mechanical properties apply to the various grades and classes, and Table 2 stipulatesthe

6、 requirements for Charpy impact energy absorption. The manufacturer should determine that the material can conform to theserequirements before parts are manufactured. For example, when Grade L43 is specified to meet the Table 2 impact energy valuesat 150 F 101 C, additional restrictions (such as pro

7、curing a steel with lower P and S contents than might normally besupplied) in the chemical composition for AISI 4340 are likely to be required.NOTE 1The committee formulating this specification has included several grades of material that have been rather extensively used for the presentpurpose. Oth

8、er compositions will be considered for inclusion by the committee from time to time as the need becomes apparent. Users should note thathardenability of some of the grades mentioned may restrict the maximum size at which the required mechanical properties are obtainable.1.3 The following referenced

9、general requirements are indispensable for application of this specification: SpecificationA962/A962M.1.4 Nuts for use with bolting are covered in Section 10 and the nut material shall be impact tested.1.5 Supplementary Requirements are provided for use at the option of the purchaser. The supplement

10、ary requirements shallapply only when specified in the purchase order or contract.1.6 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound units and SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applicable M specification designation (SI) units, the inch-pound units shall apply

11、.1.7 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance w
