Materials and Manufacture 4.1 Melting ProcessThe steel shall be made by open-hearth or electric-furn

30、ace process, with or without separate rening such as argon-oxygen-decarburization (AOD), unless otherwise designated by the individual specication. 4.2 Heat Treatment: 4.2.1 Ferritic and martensitic steel shall be cooled after pouring to provide substantially complete transformation of austenite pri

31、or to heat treatment to enhance mechanical properties. 4.2.2 Castings shall be heat treated in the working zone of a furnace that has been surveyed in accordance with Test Method A991/A991M. 4.2.2.1 When castings are heat treated at temperatures above 2000F 1100C, then the working zone shall have be

32、en established by a survey performed at not more than 25F 15C below nor more than 200F 110C above the minimum heat treatment temperature specied for the grade. If a minimum heat treatment temperature is not specied for the grade, then the survey temperature shall be not more than 50F 30C below nor m

33、ore than 175F 100C above the furnace set point used. 4.2.2.2 The maximum variation in measured temperature as determined by the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature shall be as agreed between the purchaser and producer except that during production heat treatment, no

34、 portion of the furnace shall be below the minimum specied temperature nor above the maximum specied temperature for the grade being processed. 5. Chemical Composition 5.1 Chemical AnalysisChemical analysis of materials covered by this specication shall be in accordance with Test Methods A751. 5.2 H

35、eat AnalysisAn analysis of each heat shall be made by the manufacturer to determine the percentages of the elements specied. The analysis shall be made from a test sample preferably taken during the pouring of the heat. When drillings are used, they shall be taken not less than 1 4 in. 6.4 mm beneat

36、h the surface. The chemical composition thus determined shall be reported to the purchaser, or his representative, and shall conform to the requirements in the individual specication for the grade being poured. 5.3 Product AnalysisA product analysis may be made by the purchaser from material represe

37、nting each heat, lot, or casting. The analysis shall be made on representative material. Due to the possibility of decarburization, carbon and alloy steel samples for carbon analysis shall be taken no closer than 1 4 in. 6.4 mm to a cast surface except that castings too thin for this shall be analyz

38、ed on representative material. The chemical composition thus determined shall meet the requirements specied in the applicable specication for the grade involved, or shall be subject to rejection by the purchaser, except that the chemical composition determined for carbon and low-alloy steel and stai

39、nless steel castings may vary from the specied limits by the amounts shown in Table 1. and Table 2 respectively. The product analysis tolerances of Table 1 and Table 2 are not applicable as acceptance criteria for heat analysis by the casting manufacturer. When comparing product and heat analysis fo

40、r other than carbon and low alloy steels and stainless steels, the reproducibility Data R 2 , in Test Methods E353 or E354, as applicable, shall be taken into consideration. 5.4 Unspecied ElementsWhen chemical analysis for elements not specied for the grade ordered is desired, Supplementary Requirem

41、ent S1 may be specied. 5.5 Grade substitutionGrade substitution is not permitted. Grade substitution occurs when the material being supplied contains one or more elements that are not specied for the supplied material such that the material conforms to the requirements of a different grade. 5.6 Wher

42、e more than one ladle is poured into a single casting, the molten metal in each ladle must conform to the specied chemical requirements. 6. Mechanical Test Methods 6.1 All mechanical tests shall be conducted in accordance with Test Methods and Denitions A370. 7. Tensile Requirements 7.1 One tension

43、test shall be made from each heat, and shall conform to the tensile requirements specied. Test coupons shall be cast from the same heat as the castings represented, except that for investment castings, the test coupons shall be cast in the same type of mold as the castings. 6 6 Information on the re

44、lationship of mechanical properties determined on test coupons obtained as specied in 7.1 and 7.4 with those obtained from the casting may be found in The Steel Castings Handbook, Fifth Edition, Steel Founders Society of America, 1980 , pp. 15-35through 15-43. A703/A703M 12b 37.2 The coupon from whi

45、ch the test specimen is taken shall be heat treated in production furnaces to the same procedure as the castings it represents. 7.3 Test specimens may be cut from heat-treated castings, at the producers option, instead of from test coupons. 7.4 Investment CastingsFor investment castings, the coupons

46、 may be cast to shape or machined from coupons to dimensions in accordance with Test Methods and Denitions A370 or the ICI coupon shown in Fig. 1. 7.5 Other CastingsUnless otherwise specied by the purchaser, test coupons may be cast integrally with the castings or as separately in accordance with Fi

47、g. 2 and Table 23, with Fig. 3, or with Fig. 4, except when Supplementary Requirement S26 is specied. The test coupon in Fig. 4 shall be employed only for austenitic alloy castings with cross sections less than 2 1 2 in. 63.5 mm. Tension test specimens shall be prepared in accordance with Test Metho

48、ds and Denitions A370. 7.6 If any specimen shows defective machining or develops aws, it may be discarded and another substituted from the same heat. 7.7 To determine conformance with the tension test requirements, an observed value or calculated value shall be rounded off in accordance with Practic

49、e E29 to the nearest 500 psi 5 MPa for yield and tensile strength and to the nearest 1 % for elongation and reduction of area. 8. Repair by Welding 8.1 Repair by welding shall be in accordance with the requirements of individual specication using procedures and welders qualied in accordance with Practice A488/A488M.
