Scope*1.1 This specification covers high-strength, low-alloy, hot-and cold-rolled sheet and strip in cut lengths or coils, intendedfor use in structural and miscellaneous purposes, where savingsin weight or added durability are important. These steels haveenhanced atmosphe

17、(high-strength low-alloy hot-rolledsheet or strip or high-strength low-alloy cold-rolled sheet orstrip),4.1.2.1 Hot rolled sheet shall either be CS or Grade 50(Grade 50 shall be supplied if not specified).4.1.2.2 Cold rolled sheet shall either be CS or Grade 45(Grade 45 shall be supplied if not spec

18、ified).4.1.3 Condition (specify oiled or dry, as required),4.1.4 Edges (must be specified for hot-rolled sheet or strip)(see 8.1),4.1.5 FinishCold-rolled only (indicate exposed (E) orunexposed (U). Matte (dull) finish will be supplied unlessotherwise specified), and4.1.6 Dimensions (thickness, width

19、, and whether cut lengthsor coils).NOTE 3Not all producers are capable of meeting all of the limitationsof the thickness tolerance tables in Specification A568/A568M. Thepurchaser should contact the producer regarding possible limitations priorto placing an order.4.2 The purchaser has the option to

20、specify additionalrequirements, including but are not limited, to the following:4.2.1 Coil size (must include inside diameter, outsidediameter, and maximum weight),4.2.2 Application (show part identification and description),4.2.3 Cast or heat (formerly ladle) analysis and mechanicalproperties repor

21、t (if required) (see 10.1), and4.2.4 When the purchaser requires thickness tolerances for38 in. 10 mm minimum edge distance (see SupplementaryRequirement in Specification A568/A568M), this requirementshall be specified in the purchase order or contract.4.2.5 Impact toughness requirements at a specif

22、ied testtemperature, if required.4.2.6 Other special requirements, if any.NOTE 4A typical ordering description is as follows: “ASTMA606XX, Grade 50, Type 4 high-strength low-alloy hot-rolled sheet, dry,mill edge 0.106 by 48 by 96 in. for truck frame side members.” Or,“ASTM A606MXX, Grade 345, Type 5

23、 high-strength low-alloy hot-rolled sheet, dry, mill edge, 2.7 by 1220 mm by coil for truck frame sidemembers.”5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 ConditionThe material shall be furnished hot-rolled orcold-rolled as specified on the purchase order.5.2 Heat Treatment Unless otherwise specified, Type 2and

24、 Type 4 steels shall be furnished as hot-rolled. Whenhot-rolled annealed or hot-rolled normalized material isrequired, it shall be specified on the purchase order.5.2.1 For Type 5, although the recommended maximum hotrolling temperature is 2100F 1150C, the actual temperatureselected is at the discre

25、tion of the producer.5.2.2 Type 5 is normalized by heating to 1600 to 1700F870 to 925C and then cooled in still air. The yield strengthof Type 5 is increased by precipitation hardening at 1000 to1050F 535 to 565C for 20 to 60 min, depending on theamount of strength increase desired by the producer.6

26、. Chemical Composition6.1 The maximum limits of carbon, manganese, and sulfurshall be as prescribed in Table 1, unless otherwise agreed uponbetween the manufacturer and the purchaser.6.2 The manufacturer shall use alloying elements, such aschromium, nickel, copper, and phosphorus, combined with thec

27、arbon, manganese, and sulfur within the limits prescribed inTable 1 to satisfy the mechanical properties prescribed in Table2 or Table 3. As indicated in 1.1, these steels have enhancedatmospheric corrosion resistance and are supplied in threetypes: Type 2, Type 4, and Type 5. When requested, thepro

28、ducer shall supply acceptable evidence of corrosion resis-tance to the purchaser.6.2.1 For Type 2 steel, confirmation of the minimum coppercontent requirement of 1.1 shall be sufficient evidence ofcorrosion resistance.6.2.2 For Type 4 and Type 5 steels, the basis for thisevidence can be a corrosion-

29、resistance index calculated fromthe chemical composition of the steel in accordance with GuideG101. To comply with Specification A606, Type 4 or Type 5steel shall have a minimum corrosion-resistance index of 6.0,based upon Guide G101 (see Note 5).NOTE 5The user is cautioned that the Guide G101 predi

30、ctive equationfor calculation of an atmospheric corrosion index has been verified onlyfor the composition limits stated in that guide. The composition of Type 4or Type 5 steels determines which calculation procedure (Larabee-Coburnor Townsend methods) should be used to obtain a minimum index of 6.0i

31、n accordance with Guide G101. The Larabee-Coburn equation of 6.3.1.1limits the amount of copper to 0.51 % max. Type 5 steels exceed this limitand some Type 4 compositions may contain more than 0.51 % copper,requiring use of the Townsend method of Section 6.3.2.6.3 When the steel is used in welded ap

32、plications, weldingprocedure shall be suitable for the steel chemistry as describedin 6.2 and the intended service.TABLE 1 Chemical RequirementsType of A606 SteelComposition, max, %; ranges and minimumexceptedCast or Heat(Formerly Ladle)AnalysisProduct Check,or VerificationAnalysisType 2 and Type 4B
