2、ption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This classification covers a means for specifying Multi-Layer Steel (ML
3、S) and other Metal Layer Gaskets for TransportationApplications by application and construction. These structures are composed of one or more steel or metal layers of material, whichmay have coatings or embossments. Commercial materials designated as composite or enveloped gaskets are excluded from
4、thisclassification and are covered by Classification F868 and Practice F336, respectively.1.2 Since all of the properties that contribute to gasket performance are not included, use of this classification as a basis forselecting an MLS or Metal Layer gasket is limited.1.3 This standard does not purp

32、d Metal Layer gaskets should be described, in terms of thetransportation application and construction. Thus, users of MLS and Metal Layer gaskets can, by selecting different combinations,define various parts needed for specific applications. Likewise, producers can report applications and constructi

Numbering System6.1 To permit a line call-out of the description mentioned in 5.1, this classification establishes letter or number symbols todescribe application and construction of MLS and Metal Layer gaskets.6.2 In specifying or describing MLS and Metal Layer gaskets, e
34、ach line call-out shall include the ASTM classification numberof this standard, and a nine character number and letter series describing the application and construction, as shown in Table 1.7. Physical and Mechanical Properties7.1 MLS and Metal Layer gaskets identified by this classification shall
35、have a number and letter call-out for the transportationapplication and construction as indicated in Table 1.8. Thickness Requirements8.1 MLS and Metal Layer gaskets identified by this classification shall conform to the free state or compressed thickness asspecified on the gasket drawing, or custom
36、er specification, or both.8.2 The thickness of individual components of the MLS and Metal Layer gaskets may be specified on the drawing, wherenecessary, and where components can be measured.9.
