7、vidualproduct specification shall prevail over those of this specifica-tion.1.3 By mutual agreement between the purchaser and thesupplier, additional requirements may be specified (see Section4.1.2). The acceptance of any such additional requirementsshall be dependent on negotiations with the suppli

23、olidates thematerial and produces the required shape.3.2.5.1 DiscussionThe plastic working must be per-formed by a forging machine, such as a hammer, press, or ringrolling machine, and must deform the material to produce awrought structure throughout the material cross section.3.2.6 seamless tubing,

24、 na tubular product made without awelded seam.3.2.6.1 DiscussionIt is manufactured usually by hotworking the material, and if necessary, by subsequently coldfinishing the hot worked tubular product to produce the desiredshape, dimensions and properties.4. Ordering Information4.1 It is the purchasers

25、 responsibility to specify in thepurchase order all ordering information necessary to purchasethe needed material. Examples of such information include, butare not limited to, the following:4.1.1 Quantity,4.1.2 Size and pressure class or dimensions, (tolerances andsurface finishes should be included

26、),4.1.3 Specification number with grade or class, or both, asapplicable, and year/date,4.1.4 Choice of testing track from the options listed in TestMethods A1058 when material is ordered to an M suffix (SIunits) product standard. If the choice of test track is notspecified in the order, then the def

If second-ary melting is employed, the heat shall be defined as all of theingot reme

29、lted from a single primary heat.5.4 Steel may be cast in ingots or may be strand cast. Whensteel of different grades is sequentially strand cast, identifica-tion of the resultant transition material is required. The steelproducer shall remove the transition material by an establishedprocedure that p

30、ositively separates the grades.5.5 A sufficient discard shall be made from the sourcematerial to secure freedom from injurious porosity and shrink-age, and undue segregation.6.

41、 the percentagesof those elements specified in the individual product specifi-cation. If secondary melting processes are employed, the heatanalysis shall be obtained from one remelted ingot, or theproduct of one remelted ingot, from each primary melt. Thechemical analysis thus determined shall confo
