United States14.2 Dimensions and TolerancesPultruded shapes shall be inspected for conformance with dimensions and tolerances specifie
16、don the product drawing or by Specification D3917. Products with any dimensions exceeding the specified limits shall be rejected.3.3 PunchabilityProducts not exceeding 4.7 mm (0.185 in.) thickness, having Reinforcement Material G and ReinforcementType M in accordance with Practice D3647, shall be ca
17、pable of being punched, drilled, and riveted without causing splitting ordelamination when good commercial practices are employed (for example, proper backup, adequate hole spacing, etc.).3.4 Critical AreasAreas in which the presence of imperfections is considered to be detrimental to the proper fun
18、ction of thepart shall be designated as critical areas. The areas of a product that are critical structurally, aerodynamically, electrically, or forsome other purpose shall be uniform and in accordance with the quality levels of Table 1 as stated on the product drawing. Criticalareas may be designat
19、ed on the product drawing by one of the following methods:3.4.1 Encircle critical areas,3.4.2 Cross-hatch areas to designate areas of various levels, or3.4.3 Word description of the critical area(s).4.3 Allowable DefectsDefects that by nature, number, or frequency of occurrence do not affect the ser
20、viceability of theproduct. These allowable Allowable defects shall be fully described as to the type, size, number, extent allowed, and spacing. Theappropriate acceptance level (see Table 1) for defects in these areas must be specified. Defects in excess of those listed as allowabledefects in the pr
21、oduct specifications, drawings, or contracts, for the productproducts, shall be cause for rejection.3.6 Acceptable DefectsUnless otherwise specified, the following defects shall be acceptable in all instances:3.6.1 Shrink-MarkAdimple-like depression on the surface of a pultruded shape where it has r
22、etracted from the pultrusion die,and which has well-rounded edges. A shrink-mark generally occurs on one surface of a part where there is a boss, flange, rib, orother heavy section on the opposite surface. The shrink-mark may be caused by the difference in total shrinkage when there is asudden chang
23、e in section along the surface of the part.3.6.2 Resin VoidsApplicable to a number of mat- and fabric-type reinforcement systems, particularly continuous strand matused without a surfacing material or woven fabrics. The resin voids appear as multiple surface interruptions that conform to thepattern
24、of the cloth weave or the continuous strand mat fiber distribution. This is usually due to an insufficient flow or shrinkageof the resin that fails to fill all of the interstices of the fabric or mat reinforcement. These defects occur only on the surface layerof resin in contact with the pultrusion
25、die or mold.3.6.2.1 Pultrusions intended for chemical corrosion environments with pH below 5, or over 9, or for immersion applications,require a synthetic surface veil to ensure adequate resin coverage. Any resin voids shall be repaired.4.4 Repairable DefectsRepairable defects are those that can be
26、repaired without affecting the serviceability of the productunless otherwise specifically prohibited on product specifications, drawings, or contracts. The specific repairable defects includeblister, chips, die-parting line, gouges, grooving, intermittent disfigurement, scale, scuffing, sluffing, st
27、op mark, wire brush surface,and resin voids (seeVisual defects (for example, chips, exposed reinforcement, fiber bridging, fiber prominence, and scuffing) thatdo 3.6.2). The repaired product must conform to the limits ofnot affect the structural serviceability Table 1. Other defects may berepaired b
28、y mutual consent of the customer and the pultruder. Methods of repair shall be that are permitted to be repaired if agreedupon between the purchasermanufacturer and the seller and shall be fully described by the product specification, drawings, orcontracts.purchaser. The repair procedure shall be do
29、cumented and contractually agreed upon by all parties involved.5. Acceptance Levels5.1 Visual InspectionEach sample selected in accordance with 3.1 shall be checked visually without the aid of magnification.Defects shall be classified as to type and level, as shown in Any defect not meeting Table 1.
30、 The quality level shall be determinedby reference to the product specification or drawing for the applicable acceptance level for allowable defects. The inspection shallbe concerned with those defects described by the product specifications, drawings, or contracts for the pultruded products. If non
31、eof these first three levels (Levels I, II, or III) is considered applicable, the level shall be Level IV, and allowable defects must bespecified on the product specification or drawing including the criteria for acceptance. Any excess of defects, as specified underthe required level, shall be cause
