Materials and Manufacture5.1 The metal used in the manufacture of die castings shallbe zinc alloy of a specified chemical composition conformingto the requirements of Specification B892.5.2 The material covered by th
19、is specification shall be ofuniform quality and shall be free of harmful contamination.6. Quality Assurance6.1 Responsibility for InspectionWhen specified in thecontract or purchase order, the producer or supplier is respon-sible for the performance of all inspection and test require-ments specified
20、 herein. Except as otherwise specified in thecontract or order, the producer or supplier may use his own orany other suitable facilities for the performance of the inspec-tion and test requirements specified herein, unless disapprovedby the purchaser. The purchaser shall have the right to performany
21、 of the inspections and tests set forth in this specification.Quality assurance standards shall be agreed upon between theproducer or supplier and purchaser at the time a contract ororder is placed.6.2 For normal inspection purposes, an inspection lot shallconsist of the production from each die dur
22、ing a singleproduction run, as defined and recorded by the producer, andshipped, or available for shipment, at one time.6.2.1 The producer or supplier shall examine each diecasting of a randomly or statistically selected sample todetermine conformance to the requirements of the contract,purchase ord
23、er, or part drawing. The results of this inspectionshall be recorded.6.2.1.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract, purchaseorder, or part drawing, detailed dimensional conformance shallnormally be determined on one or more production samples.6.2.2 When specified in the contact, purchase order,
24、 or partdrawing, special inspection lot definitions may be established,for a specific part.7. Chemical Requirements7.1 LimitsThe die casting shall conform to the require-ments as to chemical composition in Table 1. Conformanceshall be determined by the producer by analyzing samplestaken at the time
25、castings are made. If the producer hasdetermined the chemical composition of the metal during thecourse of manufacture, he shall not be required to sample andanalyze the finished product.7.1.1 When a detailed chemical analysis is required with ashipment, is shall be called for in the contract or pur
26、chaseorder.7.1.2 If the producers or suppliers method of compositioncontrol is acceptable, sampling for chemical analysis may bewaived at the discretion of the purchaser.7.2 Number of SamplesWhen required, samples for deter-mination of chemical composition shall be taken to representthe following:7.
27、2.1 A sample shall be taken from each of two representa-tive castings selected from each lot defined in 6.2.7.3 Methods of SamplingSamples from die castings fordetermination of chemical composition shall be taken inaccordance with Specification B949, Section 6.5 and 6.6.7.4 Method of AnalysisThe det
28、ermination of chemicalcomposition shall be made in accordance with SpecificationB949, Section 5.2.2.7.4.1 In case of dispute, the results secured by Test MethodsE536, ISO 3815-1, or ISO 3815-2 shall be the basis ofacceptance.NOTE 1Test Methods E536 is not directly applicable to ACuZinc5.ISO 3815-1an
29、d ISO 3815-2 are generic methods applied to zinc and zincalloys. Each of the methods may be modified and formatted for the alloyto be assayed. An experienced chemist, using suitable and/or traceablestandards along with valid quality assurance techniques, will be able toperform and validate the metho

Mechanical Properties and Tests8.1 Unless specified in the contract or purchase order, orspecified on the detail drawing, acceptance of die castingsunder this specification shall not depend on mechanical prop-erties determined by tension or impa

They are B50and
34、B1values with 50 %confidence and were obtained from tests on 5.3 mm diameterseparately cast test bars which had a 25.4 mm gage length. Thebars were tested in the as-cast condition.NOTE 2The property values of test bars cut from castings will varydepending on the solidification rate of the individual
35、 casting. Solidifica-tion and cooling rate are significantly influenced by casting section size.Also due to cooling rate and section size variation, the properties of barsmachined from castings may vary from those of separately cast test bars.For these reasons, acceptance or rejection of the casting
36、 shall be based onchemistry. Hardness and mechanical properties may be used when agreedby the purchaser and supplier, and specified on the engineering drawing.8.1.2 Hardness (Test Method E10)The hardness shall bedetermined on the casting unless otherwise specified on thepart drawing. A Brinell hardn
37、ess test will be performed using a500 kg load and a 10 mm ball unless otherwise specified andagreed to by supplier and user. If the part is too small for aBrinell test, a Rockwell F or K hardness test is suggested.9. Permissible Variations in Dimensions9.1 Permissible variations in dimensions shall
38、be within thelimits specified on the drawings or in the contract or purchaseorder.9.1.1 Any dimensions for which a tolerance is not specifiedshall be in accordance with NADCA Product SpecificationStandards for Die Castings.9.2 Dimensional tolerance deviations waived by the pur-chaser shall be confir
39、med in writing to the producer or supplier.10. General Quality10.1 Internal SoundnessWhen specified, the soundness ofdie castings shall conform to standards or requirements agreedupon between the producer or supplier and the purchaser. Thenumber and extend of imperfections shall not exceed thosespec
40、ified by the purchaser. The standards or requirements mayconsist of radiographs, photographs, or sectioned die castings.10.2 Imperfections inherent in die castings shall not because for rejection provided it is demonstrated that the diecastings are in accordance with the requirements and standardsag
