5、921.4. Material4.1 All of the component parts of the instruments shall bemade of martensitic stainless steel of Type 410, 410X, 416,416MOD, 420A, or 420B of Specification F 899.5. Physical Requirements5.1 Heat Treatment and Hardness for Component Parts:5.1.1 The component parts of the instruments sh

6、all be heattreated under conditions recommended for the material used.Typical heat treating guidelines and hardness values are shownin Specification F 899.5.1.2 The hardness of all opposing parts of the sameinstrument shall not vary in hardness by more than 4 units onthe Rockwell Hardness C scale (H

7、RC) or equivalent.5.2 PassivationInstruments and instrument componentsshall be passivated after completion of all fabricating andfinishing operations.6. Performance Requirements6.1 Finger RingsInside surfaces shall be well roundedand polished and shall comply with the requirements in 7.1.6.2 Jaw Ser

8、rations and TeethJaw serrations and teethshall be of the types specified in Definitions F 921. Theserrations and teeth shall be of uniform depth and height andwell defined to provide effective gripping. The serrations andteeth shall interdigitate. The edges of the serrations shall bechamfered.6.3 Bo

9、x LockThe hemostatic forceps shall be of box lockconstruction, as defined in Definitions F 921. The pin, or otherfastening component, shall be permanently secured. The jointperformance of the box lock shall be smooth, of equalresistance, and non-binding when opening or closing theforceps to an inclu

10、ded angle of 90 6 5 (the lock may belubricated).6.4 ClearanceThe maximum clearance between the maleand female members of the forceps in the lock area shall be 0.4mm (0.015 in.). The clearance is the visible gap that existswhen the instrument is viewed from both the front and sideprofile or end view

11、of the instrument (excluding bevel) (seeFig. 1).6.5 RatchetsRatchet and ratchet catch shall securely en-gage at each ratchet position in a smooth and progressivemanner.6.6 Jaw and Ratchet SettingThe jaw tips shall close andinterdigitate when the first ratchet position is engaged, andthere shall be n

12、o visible misalignment of the jaws. The jawsshall progressively tighten with each succeeding ratchet en-gagement. Each ratchet position shall hold firmly and releaseeasily. The jaws shall be fully closed and the serrationsinterdigitated when the last ratchet is engaged. The jaws shallnot open as the

13、 result of engaging any ratchet position.6.7 ElasticityThe instrument by design shall be capable ofpassing the test for elasticity as specified in 8.2. After comple-tion of the test, no visible distortion, cracks, or other visible1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F04 on
