2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers regular and special-qualityalloy steel bolting that may be used for nuclear and otherspecial applicat

3、ions. See Specification A962/A962M for thedefinition of bolting.1.2 The following referenced common requirements areindispensable for application of this specification: SpecificationA962/A962M.1.3 Supplementary requirements of an optional nature areprovided for use at the option of the purchaser. Th

4、ese supple-mentary requirements only apply when specified individuallyby the purchaser in the purchase order or contract.1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand in SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applicable “M” specification designation (

5、SIunits), inch-pound units shall apply.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each systemshall be used independ

6、ently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in non-conformance with thestandard.2.

Ordering Information3.1 The inquiry and orders for material under this specifi-cation shall include the following, as required, to describe thedesired material adequately:3.1.1 Grade and Class3.1.2 Condition (Section 5),3.1.3 Heat treatment (Section 6),3.1.4

8、 Supplementary Requirements (S1 to S9),3.1.5 Reports required (Section 16),3.1.6 End use, and3.1.7 Any special requirements.3.2 The purchaser is referred to the listed supplementaryrequirements.4. Common Requirements4.1 Bolting supplied to this specification shall conform tothe requirements of Speci

9、ficationA962/A962M. These require-ments include test methods, finish, thread dimensions, macroetch, marking, certification, optional supplementary require-ments, and others. Failure to comply with the requirements ofSpecification A962/A962M constitutes nonconformance withthis specification. In case

10、of conflict between this specificationand Specification A962/A962M, this specification shall pre-vail.5. Manufacture5.1 Bolting material shall be supplied hot-rolled or hot-forged or cold-finished at the option of the producer. However,if desired by the purchaser, cold finishing may be specified.6.

11、Heat Treatment6.1 Bolting material ordered in the annealed condition shallhave a structure suitable for machining. Such annealed materialis not intended to be used without subsequent quenching andtempering as specified in 6.21This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee A01 on Stee

15、A 19428-2959, United States.6.2 Bolting ordered in the liquid-quenched and temperedcondition shall be uniformly reheated from a temperaturebelow the cooling transformation range to the proper austen-itizing temperature, quenched in a liquid medium under sub-stantially uniform conditions, and then un

16、iformly reheated fortempering. The minimum tempering temperature shall be 850F 455 C.6.3 Material that has been straightened after quenching andtempering shall be stress relieved by reheating to a temperaturenot lower than 100 F 55 C under the tempering tempera-ture.7. Chemical Composition7.1 The st

Tensile Requirements8.1 Material furnished in the annealed condition shall becapable of meeting the specified tensile properties for the classas specified in Table 2 when heat treated in accordance with 6.2and 6.3 (see Supplement

18、ary Requirement S4).8.2 Bolting in the quenched and tempered or quenched,tempered and stress-relieved condition shall conform to prop-erties shown in Table 2 for the specified class.9. Hardness Requirements9.1 The hardness shall be determined on the surface of thematerial after removal of decarburiz

19、ation.9.2 The hardness of material in the annealed condition shallnot be greater than 235 HB.9.3 The hardness of material in the quenched and temperedor quenched, tempered and stress-relieved condition shall bewithin the limits in Table 2 for the specified class.10. Impact Requirements10.1 Annealed

20、material after proper heat treatment shall becapable of meeting the impact requirements in Table 2 or ofSupplementary Requirement S8, if so specified (see Supple-mentary Requirement S4).10.2 Material in the quenched and tempered or quenched,tempered, and stress-relieved condition shall conform to th

21、eimpact requirements in Table 2, or of Supplementary Require-ment S8 if so specified.10.3 The percent of shear (ductility or fibrous) fracture shallbe computed. The computed value shall be recorded for allimpact specimens.10.4 The amount of lateral expansion shall be measured.The measured value shal

22、l be recorded for all impact specimens.10.5 The percent shear and the amount of lateral expansionshall be reported for information purposes (see 16.1).TABLE 1 Chemical RequirementsAIdentificationSymbolGrade$ B21 B22 B23 B24 B24V(Cr-Mo-V) (4142-H) (E-4340-H) (4340 Mod.)
