A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope Scope*1.1 This practice covers a basic procedure of ultrasonically inspecting cylind

3、rical forgings with bores from the bore surface.1.2 This practice applies to the manual testing mode. It does not restrict the use of other testing modes, such as mechanized orautomated.1.3 This practice applies to cylindrical forgings having bore sizes equal to or greater than 2.5 in. (63.5 mm).64

4、mm.1.4 This practice is expressed in inch-pound and SI units; however, the inch-pound units shall apply unless the purchase orderor contract specifies the applicable “M” specification designation (SI units). The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as sta

Significance and Use3.1 This practice shall be used when ultrasonic inspection from the bore surface is required by the order or specifi

8、cation forinspection purposes in which the acceptance of the forging is based on limitations of the number, amplitude, or location ofdiscontinuities or a combination thereof, which leads to ultrasonic indications.3.2 The acceptance criteria shall be stated clearly as order requirements.3.3 This prac

9、tice specifies dual search units, requires pitch-catch search unit with twin transducers, which depending on theangle, are sensitive only to 2 to 3 in. 50 to 75 mm into the metal from the bore surface.4. General Requirements4.1 As far as possible, the entire bore surface shall be subjected to ultras

10、onic inspection. It may be impossible to inspect somesmall portions of the bore surface because of chamfers at stepdownsstep-downs and other local configurations.4.2 The bore ultrasonic inspection shall be performed after the final austenitizing and tempering heat treatment for mechanicalproperties

11、of the forging, and may be performed either prior to or after any subsequent stress relieving heat treatment.4.3 The ultrasonic beam shall be introduced radially for overall scanning.4.4 Forgings may be tested either when stationary or while rotated by means of a lathe or rollers.1 This practice is
