1、Designation: B 777 07Standard Specification forTungsten Base, High-Density Metal1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 777; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in pare

2、ntheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the requirements for fourclasses of machinable, high-density tungsten base metal pro-duced by consolidating metal powder m

3、ixtures, the composi-tion of which is mainly tungsten. This material specificationmay be used for bare parts or for parts that may be coated withother materials for protection against corrosion and abrasion.1.2 Intended UseParts made from this material are in-tended for uses such as weights or count

4、er-balances in static ordynamic balancing, high-speed rotating inertia members, ra-diation shielding, hypervelocity impact, and vibration-dampingapplications.1.3 Special ApplicationsFor particular applications, prop-erties or requirements other than those specified in Sections 5,6, and 7 of this spe

5、cification may be important. These alloysmay contain elements which make them magnetic. Wherefreedom from magnetic response is required, this should bespecified in the purchase order. Class 4 is not available in anon-magnetic grade. For purposes of this specification, non-magnetic material is define

6、d as material having a maximummagnetic permeability of 1.05 (see Test Method B 193). Alsofor special applications involving large sections, methods fordetermining internal quality, such as mechanical tests onspecimens from these larger sections or suitable nondestructivetests may be applied. If requ

7、ired, these additional tests shall bespecified in the purchase order.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.
