The data provide a measure of theload-carrying capacity of a material edge loaded with a close-fitting cylindrical

15、 pin through a hole located a specific distance fromthe specimen edge.4.2 Bearing properties are useful in the comparison of materials and design of structures under conditions where the pin is notrestricted.5. Apparatus5.1 Testing MachinesMachines used for bearing testing shall conform to the requi

16、rements of Practices E4.5.2 Gripping DevicesVarious types of gripping devices may be used to transmit the measured load applied by the testingmachine to the test specimens.Any grips considered to apply the load axially for tension testing, such as pin connections or wedgegrips, are satisfactory for

17、use in bearing testing.5.3 PinThe bearing load is generally applied to the specimen through a close-fitting cylindrical pin. The pin shall be harderand stronger than the material being tested. Restraint of movement of the specimen where it is in contact with the pin has aconsiderable effect upon the

18、 hole deformation obtained as a function of the load applied. Close control of surface conditions onboth the specimen and pin is needed to assure reproducible results. The pins used should be uniform in diameter, hardness, andsurface roughness. Pin materials, hardness, and surface roughness as shown

19、 in Table 1 are recommended for testing the materialslisted. The pin should be checked carefully after each test to ensure that no metallic residue adheres to it and that it is both straightand undeformed. If there is any question regarding its quality it should be replaced.5.4 Pin SupportThe jig su

20、pporting the pin should position the pin concentric with the hole in the specimen. It should notrestrain the thickening of the specimen as the load from the pin deforms the hole. Bending of the pin should be kept to a minimumby having the jig support the pin close to the specimen. Fig. 2 and Fig. 3

21、show examples of the types of jig that have been usedand are considered satisfactory.FIG. 1 Bearing Test SpecimenTABLE 1 Characteristics of Pin for Various Materials TestedMaterial Tested Material RockwellHardness Surface Roughness, in.

23、measuring the bearing deformation shall comply with the requirements for ClassB-2 or better as described in Practice E83. The bearing deformation measurement shall be made in a manner to obtain the axialbearing deformation with a minimum of other deformations being included such as the bending of th

Fig. 2 shows an adaptation of a Templin extensometer system to record bearing deformation. Fig. 3 illustrates amechanism that can be used

25、to transfer the bearing deformation so it can be measured with the same extensometers used for tensiontesting. A method of measuring bearing deformation featuring two linear differential transformers is shown in Fig. 4.6. Test Specimens6.1 Specimen GeometryThe specimen shall be a flat sheet type, wi

26、th the full thickness of the product being used if possible.If the specimen is too thick in relation to the pin diameter, the pin is likely to bend considerably or break before the bearing strengthis obtained. If a specimen is too thin, buckling may occur. A ratio of pin diameter to specimen thickne

27、ss of from 2 to 4 has beenused to avoid both conditions. The hole should have approximately the same diameter as for the intended use. For example, if thebearing test results are being used to obtain data for a riveted part, a hole 316 in. or 14 in. (5 or 6 mm) in diameter would be suitable,while fo

28、r a bolted assembly, a larger hole might be desirable. A difference in test results may be obtained with holes of differentdiameters. The width of the specimen shall be 4 to 8 times the hole diameter. diameter of the hole. A wider specimen encouragesthe intended shear-out failure mode. The edge dist

29、ance ratio shall be specified and the edge distance held within a tolerance of62 %. Edge distance ratios of 1.50 and 2.00 are commonly used (see Fig. 1).Aclose fit between the specimen and pin is required,since a loose fit will tend to give lower results. The diameter of the hole shall not exceed th

30、e pin diameter by more than 0.001 in.(0.02 mm). The free length between the point of loading and the center of the test pin hole shall be greater than 1.5 times thespecimen width. The total length of the test specimen is not critical and may depend on the method used to grip the specimen. Fig.1 show

The specimen orientation and the loading direction shall beidentified by

32、the following system.6.1.2 The reference grain directions for rectangular shaped products are indicated in Fig. 5. These are suitable for sheet, plate,extrusions, forgings, and other shapes of nonsymmetrical grain flow.6.1.1 Specimen orientationThe two-letter specimen orientation codes are also show

The specimen orientation and the loadi

34、ngdirection shall be identified by a two-letter code as illustrated in Fig. 5. The first letter designates the normal to the expected shearplane. The second letter designates the direction of force application. The most commonly used specimen orientations are T-L andL-T for thin products. This orien

35、tation code is identical to that used for cylindrical and flat shear specimens in Test Methods B769and B831.FIG. 4 Autographic Measurement of Bearing DeformationE238 1746.1.2 The orientation codes for rectangular shaped products are indicated in Fig. 5a. The product axes are in the longitudinal(L),

36、transverse (T), and short (S) directions. These are suitable for sheet, plate, extrusions, forgings, and other shapes having arectangle form. The most commonly used specimen orientations are T-L and L-T for thin products. Fig. 5b shows the orientationcodes for cylindrical product forms such as rod,

37、tube, and pipe, where the product axes are in the longitudinal (L), radial (R), andcircumferential (C) directions.6.2 Specimen PreparationAflat specimen with a hole normal to the face shall be used.Asmooth, round hole with a minimumof cold work on the surface must be obtained. The finished hole is g

38、enerally bored, reamed, or ground as a final operation to obtainthe desired degree of roundness.Any burr on the periphery of the hole is indicative of a cold-worked surface on the hole and shouldbe avoided. Removal of the burr will not eliminate the cold work.(a)(b)FIG. 5 Grain Orientations and Pin

39、Bearing Specimen Orientation Codes for Pin Bearing Specimens Taken from (a) Rectangular Shapesand (b) cylindrical shapes.E238 1757. Procedure7.1 Measurement of SpecimensMeasure the actual thickness of the specimen and the pin diameter, preferably reading to atleast the nearest 0.5 % of the dimension

40、 measured, and in any case to at least the nearest 0.001 in. (0.02 mm). Calculate the stresson the basis of the measured dimensions. Measure the edge distance to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.2 mm).7.2 CleaningClean the specimen, pin, and adjacent areas of the jig of all foreign matter and contamination,

41、especiallylubricants, prior to assembly. Keep in that condition until the test is completed. It has been found that oil from human fingerstouching the pin significantly lowers the results of the test. A handle on the pin has been found to help in keeping fingers fromtouching the test area of the pin

42、. Recommended methods of cleaning are given in the Appendix X1.3 The cleaners recommendedfor the materials given in the Appendix X1 are generally satisfactory for cleaning the pin and fixtures, too.7.3 TestingLoad the specimen and obtain simultaneous readings of the load and bearing deformation.Any

43、convenient methodof load application and system of strain recording may be used. Autographic strain recording equipment can be readily adaptedto measure bearing deformation (see Figs. 1-6).7.4 Conduct the tests at a controlled rate of straining or loading. The recommended rate for metallic materials

44、 is 0.05 bearingstrain per minute. If a testing speed other than a strain rate of 0.05/min is used, report this fact.8. Determination of Bearing Yield Strength8.1 Determine the bearing yield strength from a graph of the bearing load versus bearing deformation. Fig. 6 is an illustrationof such a grap

45、h. Calculate the yield strength from the load at an offset from the initial straight-line portion of the graph equal to2 % of the pin diameter. Calculate the stress by dividing the load by the bearing area.9. Determination of Bearing Strength9.1 Calculate the bearing strength by dividing the maximum
