United States17.2 Tension Test Specimens:7.2.1 The tension test specimens shall be cast to the formand dimensions shown in Fig. 1 or Fig. 2, in the same kind ofmolding material used for the production castings. At leas

16、tthree such specimens shall be cast from a representative ladleof iron either from each batch-melted heat or, in continuousmelting, from each 4-h pour period during which the purchas-ers castings were poured, or as otherwise agreed uponbetween manufacturer and purchaser.7.2.2 All test specimens shal

17、l be suitably identified with thedesignation of either the batch-melted heat or the pour periodof a continuous heat.7.2.3 All test specimens shall be heat treated in the sameproduction furnaces and in the same cycles as the castings theyrepresent. However, in those instances wherein the criticalsect

18、ions of the production castings differ appreciably from thatof the central portion of the test specimens, the time cycle fortempering the test specimens may be altered from that of theproduction lot in order to obtain similar microstructures orhardness, or both, in both specimen and castings. In suc

19、h casesthe hardness of the specimens shall be tested and reportedalong with the tensile test results.7.2.4 The tension test is usually performed on unmachinedspecimens. However, for referee work, the specimen may bemachined from the standard cast bar to the dimensions shownin Fig. 3.7.3 Tension Test

20、 Method:7.3.1 The gage length of the standard tension specimen shallbe 2.00 6 0.01 in. 50.0 6 0.3 mm.7.3.2 The diameter used to compute the cross-sectional areashall be the average between the largest and smallest diametersin that section of the 2-in. 50-mm gage length having thesmallest diameter an

21、d shall be measured to the nearest 0.001 in.0.2 mm. No cast bar having a mean diameter less than 0.590in. 15.0 mm shall be accepted for test.7.3.3 After reaching a stress equivalent to approximatelyhalf of the anticipated yield stress, the speed of the movinghead of the testing machine shall not exc

22、eed 0.50 in./min 12.5mm/min through the breaking load.7.3.4 While the values for yield point and yield strength arenot identical, they are sufficiently close for most applications offerritic malleable irons to be used interchangeably. They maybe determined by any of the approved techniques described

23、 inthe paragraphs on Determination of Yield Strength and YieldPoint of Test Methods E8. If determined as yield strength, thatstress producing an extension under load of 0.01 in. 0.25 mmover the 2-in. 50-mm gage length (for example, 0.5 %extension) or an offset of 0.2 % shall be taken as the yieldstr

24、ess, which shall be converted to yield strength by dividingby the original cross-sectional area of the gage length found inaccordance with 7.3.2. It shall be reported to the nearest 100psi MPa. In referee work, yield strength shall be determinedas the stress that produces an extension under load of

25、0.5 % ofthe gage length.7.3.5 The tensile strength shall be the maximum loadcarried by the specimen during the test divided by the originalcross-sectional area of the gage length, as found in accordancewith 7.3.2. It shall be reported to the nearest 100 psi MPa.7.3.6 The elongation is the increase i

26、n gage length afterfracture of a tensile specimen, measured to the nearest 0.01 in.0.25 mm, expressed as a percentage of the original gagelength. It shall be reported to the nearest 0.5 %.7.4 Retesting:7.4.1 If, after testing, a specimen shows evidence of adefect, another tension test may be made on

27、 a companionFIG. 1 Tension Test SpecimenNOTE 1Modifications may be made in the dimensions indicated abovefor those details of the specimen outside of the gage length as required bytesting procedure and equipment.FIG. 2 Alternative Unmachined Tension Test SpecimenNOTE 1The gage length and fillets sha

28、ll be as shown, but the endsmay be of any shape to fit the holders of the testing machine in such a waythat the load shall be axial. The reduced section shall have a gradual taperfrom the ends toward the center, with the ends 0.003 to 0.005 in. 0.08 to0.13 mm larger in diameter than the center.FIG.

29、3 Machined Tension Test SpecimenA47/A47M 99 (2014)2specimen. Also, a retest shall be permitted whenever fractureoccurs outside the central 50 % of the gage length.7.4.2 If the results of a valid test fail to conform to therequirements of this specification, two retests shall be made. Ifeither retest

30、 fails to meet the specification, the castings repre-sented by these test specimens shall be rejected. A valid test isone wherein the test specimen has been properly prepared andappears to be sound and on which the approved test procedurehas been followed.7.4.3 If sufficient companion test bars are

31、unavailable, themanufacturer shall have the option of testing a specimen cutfrom a representative casting. Therefore, as stated in X1.3, themechanical properties of such tension test specimen removedfrom a production casting will not necessarily correspond tothose of a standard separately cast test

32、specimen, the values inTable 1 do not apply. Instead, the mechanical properties of thetest specimen from the casting must equal or exceed theaverage of those from similar test specimens removed from thesame location from two castings of the same design whereseparately cast test bars meet the require

33、ments of Table 1.7.4.4 If the first test results indicate that a reheat treatmentis needed to meet the test requirements, the entire lot ofcastings and the representative test specimens shall be reheattreated together. Testing shall then be repeated in accordancewith 7.4.1 7.4.3.7.4.5 The results of

34、 all tests, including retests, shall beposted in permanent record, which shall state any abnormali-ties observed during the test and in the fractured ends. Suchrecords shall be kept for at least 1 year after shipment of theproduction castings and shall be available for examination bythe purchaser or

35、 by his authorized representative.7.4.6 If not covered in the purchase agreement, the fre-quency of tension testing shall be in accordance with 7.2.1 andsufficiently often to ensure uniformity of product and compli-ance with minimum test requirements.7.4.7 Tension test results, obtained in accordanc

36、e with theabove subsections, must conform to the values of Table 1 foracceptance under this specification except as provided in 7.4.3.7.4.8 When agreed upon between manufacturer andpurchaser, tested specimens or unbroken test bars shall bepreserved by the manufacturer for a period of three monthsaft

37、er the date of the test report.7.5 Hardness TestIf the purchase agreement requireshardness testing, the acceptable hardness range shall be statedand a test location clearly shown on the covering drawing(s).7.5.1 Hardness Test MethodThe Brinell method of hard-ness testing in accordance with Test Meth

38、od E10 shall beemployed whenever possible.7.5.2 For castings of such size or shape that do not permitBrinell testing with the standard 3000-kgf load, the 500 kgfmay be employed, the hardness number being reported as HB10/500/15. In very unusual cases where it is impossible to usethe Brinell method,

39、the Rockwell test may be substituted, usingTest Methods E18 with an appropriate Rockwell scale. Con-versions of hardness values from one method to anotheraccording to Hardness Conversion Tables E140, which doesnot specifically cover cast irons, are approximate only and,therefore, are generally inadv

40、isable.7.5.3 Sufficient material shall be removed from the castsurface to ensure that the measured surface is representative.7.5.4 Sampling procedures and the frequency of hardnesstesting shall be fully detailed on the purchase agreement.Otherwise, hardness tests shall be performed at the discretion

41、of the producer.7.5.5 Castings failing to conform to the required hardnessrange may be reheat treated and retested. If after reheat treatingthey still fail the hardness requirements, they shall be rejected.7.5.6 Typical hardness maximums for this grade of mal-leable iron are listed in Table 2.8. Mic

42、rostructure Requirements8.1 The microstructure of the malleable iron shall consist oftemper carbon nodules distributed through a ferritic matrix andshall be free of excessive pearlite, massive carbides, andprimary graphite.8.2 When agreed upon by the purchaser and producer, themaximum decarburizatio

43、n at any as-cast surface after heattreatment may be stipulated in writing, as measured by visualdepletion of combined carbon after polishing, etching in nital,and viewing at 100.8.3 In reference work, the metallographic practice recom-mended in Test Method A247 shall be followed.9. Soundness Require

44、ments9.1 All castings, on visual examination, shall be sound andfree of obvious shrinkage and porosity.9.2 If the purchaser requires soundness tests to beperformed, it shall be so stated in the purchase agreement, andthe method and soundness requirements shall be detailed.10. Dimensional Requirement

45、s10.1 The castings shall conform to the dimensions given ondrawings furnished by the purchaser, or to the dimensionsestablished by the pattern equipment supplied by the purchaser,or as agreed upon in specific cases to gages supplied by thepurchaser.Variations in any solid dimensions will be permitte
