If the castings are to be heat tr

27、eated, the specimens shall be heat treated with productioncastings of the same alloy and in the same temper as the specimens.7.2.2 Each heat-treating furnace charge shall include at least two tension test specimens poured from a production melt. Suchspecimens shall be of the same alloy and in the sa

28、me temper as the castings, and shall be tested to judge the quality of theheat-treating operation given the furnace charge.7.3 Test Specimens:7.3.1 The tension test specimens shall be separately cast in the same refractory material as the castings. The specimen shouldbe “cast to size” according to t

29、he dimensions of the 0.250-in. (6.35-mm) diameter round specimen shown in Fig. 8 of Test MethodsB557. They shall not be machined prior to test except to adapt the grip ends to the holders of the testing machine to assure axialloading.7.3.2 If any tension test specimen is improperly machined or shows

30、 flaws upon testing, it may be discarded and anotherspecimen from the same heat or melt used instead. If no additional specimen is available, the manufacturer and the purchaser shallagree on an alternative procedure.7.4 Test MethodsThe tension tests shall be made in accordance with Test Methods B557

31、.8. Retests8.1 If any test specimen fails to conform to the prescribed requirements, two additional representative specimens shall beselected and tested. If either of these specimens fails to conform to the requirements, the lot may be rejected. If, however, thespecimen failure is due to inadequate

32、thermal treatment, the material may be reheat-treated and resampled in accordance with 7.2.Castings may be reheat-treated no more than twice.9. General Quality9.1 The castings shall be of uniform quality and condition, free from cracks and other injurious defects, and shall be cleanedbefore inspecti

33、on by blasting or other approved process.9.2 Castings shall not be repaired by welding, impregnation, peening, or other method without permission of the purchaser.10.

Additionalinformation will be contained inside the package or container to identify the shipment by drawing number, quantity, alloy, andcondition.14.4 When specified in the contract or purchase order, castings shall be preserved, pack

42、aged, and packed in accordance withthe requirements of Practices B660. The applicable levels shall be specified in the contract or order. Marking for shipment of suchmaterial shall be in accordance with one of the following selected standards for civil agencies: Fed. Std. No. 123, PracticeB666/B666M
