1、Designation: B777 15Standard Specification forTungsten Base, High-Density Metal1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B777; 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 parent

2、heses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () 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 mixt

3、ures, 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 This specification describes physical, mechanical, andmicrostructural testing of a material

4、lot based on the use of testcoupons, not actual parts. Sintered properties typically varyboth with part size and sampling location within a given part.Results obtained from coupon testing may therefore differ fromthe properties of a specific location in a larger part.1.3 Intended UseParts made from

5、this material are in-tended for uses such as weights or counter-balances in static ordynamic balancing, high-speed rotating inertia members, ra-diation shielding, hypervelocity impact, and vibration-dampingapplications. In selecting the appropriate alloy for a givenapplication, it is important to no

6、te that as the tungsten contentof the alloy is increased, stiffness, radiation attenuation, anddensity increase with an accompanying decrease in attainableductility.1.4 Special ApplicationsFor particular applications, prop-erties or requirements other than those specified in Sections 5,6, and 7 of t

7、his specification may be important. These alloysmay contain elements which make them weakly ferromagnetic.Where freedom from magnetic response is required, thisshould be specified in the purchase order. Class 4 is notavailable in a non-magnetic grade. For purposes of thisspecification, non-magnetic

8、material is defined as materialhaving a maximum magnetic permeability of 1.05 (see TestMethod A342). Also for special applications involving largesections, methods for determining internal quality, such asmechanical testing of specimens excised from these largersections or suitable nondestructive te

9、sts may be applied. If suchpart property data are required, an additional part-specific testprogram shall be specified in the purchase order.1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provi
