6、his British Ctandard has been prepared under the direction of the Iron and Steel Standards Committee and specifies the requirements for annealed steel wire for springs that are to be heat treated after manufacture. The-standard has. been extensively revised and is now tnetricated and retitled. BS 14

7、29 : 1948 is now withdrawn. A vange of carbon steels and two types of alloy steel have been retained. Provision has been made however for various qualities to be supplied that are related to the intended application of the wire. These are identified by an appropriate quality code. The concept of sta

8、ndard or preferred sizes is not appropriate for this standard. The size ranges listed for each grade may not be available from every manufacturer without restriction. a O o e BSI BSx1429 BO = lb24bb9 0072b51 7 BS 1429 : 1980 British Standard Specification for Annealed round steel wire for general en

Wire supplied in straight lengths shall be grouped in such a manner as to be clearly identified with the coil from which the lengths have been cut. Two test pieces selected at random from the lengths shall the

25、n be considered to be representative of that coil of wire. 6.3 Test pieces for surface defect examination shall be selected as specified in 6.2 except for the NS quality for which the satnpling rate shall be at the discretion of the wire manufacturer to ensure compliance with the requiretnents of cl

The test piece shall be bent through 180 O, cold, by steadily applied pressure or by a succession of blows, over a former of diameter equal to the diameter of the wire without showing signs of failure. 7. Mechanic

27、al testing 7.1 Tensile test. The procedures for mechanical testing shall be in accordance with the requirements of BS 4545. It1 routine testing with fixed gear type tensile testing machines, the straining rate shall be pre-set to give a rate of separation of the grips not greater than 40 % of the te

28、st length per minute. NOTE. BS 4545 stipulates that the tensile strength shall be calculated on the nominal dimensions of the wire unless otherwise specified. 8. Dimensional tolerances 8.1 Diameter tolerance and ovality. The minimum and maximum diameters shall be measured by micrometer at the same c

29、ross section on a straight wire. Ovality is defined as the difference between the minimum and maximum axes of the wire at the same cross sections. Each measure- ment shall be within the tolerance for diameter and ovality given in table 3 for the appropriate diameter of wire. Q Table 3. Tolerances on

A hardening test is

32、 applicable to wire diameters of 3.0 mm and over, The test piece shall be hardened by quenching in oil from the appropriate temperature shown in table 6. For the purpose of the test a flat shall be ground on the surface of the hardened test piece, removing at least 0.20 mm. Vickers hardness tests in

33、 accordance with the requirements of BS 427 shall be carried out on this flat. The minimum hardness values to be obtainedshall be as given in table 6. The preferred method for testing hardness is the Vickers test, but in cases where a purchaser states a preference a Rockwell test may be carried out

34、in accordance with BS 891 and this shall be indicated at the time of ordering and an appropriate minimum Rockwell hardness value agreed, - 7.3 Bend test, The bend test shall be carried out as follows. - Table 4.

All qualities of wire shall be examined for surface defects by the method specified in 9.2 or by that speci

36、fied in 9.3. Where deemed necessary, the afore- mentioned tests may be supplemented by continuous non-destructive testing of the whole coil, (see 9.4). Tests for decarburization shall be as specified in 9.5 and where appropriate, for internal defects as specified in 9.6. Materials shall comply with

37、the specific requirements listed in section three according to quality. 9.2 Magnetic particle test. For the magnetic particle test, a test piece of 250 mm in length shall be taken and subjected to a magnetizing current of 20 amperes per mm of wire diameter. Examination for surface defects shall be c

38、arried out by the use of magnetic particle fluorescent ink. Any defects indicated by this test shall be noted and further examined by taking metallographic sections through the defect for the purpose of measuring the depth. 9.3 Deep etch test. For the deep etch test, a test piece of 250 mm in length

39、 shall be taken and immersed in a boiling solution of 50 %by volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 50 % of water for a period of time equivalent to 1 s for every 0.025 mm of diameter with a maximum of 2.5 min, after which the wire shall be examined at a magnification of x5 to x12 diameters. A

40、ny defects indicated by this test shall be further examined by taking metallographic sections through the defects revealed by the deep etch test and their depth measured. 9.4 Non-destructive test. A non-destructive test shall be made if agreed between the purchaser and the supplier. Wire intended fo

41、r use in dynamic duty springs (ND and HD quality) may be continuously inspected by eddy current or ultrasonic methods of suitable sensitivity. The maximum depth of defect, the marking and the allowable number of such defects in any one coil shall be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier. 9.5

42、 Decarburization. All qualities of wire shall be examined for decarburization by taking cross sections and mounting in suitable plastic to support the edge of the specimen during subsequent metallographic preparation. After polishing and etching with a reagent consisting of a solution of either nitr

43、ic or picric acid in alcohol, viz. Nital or Picral, the cross section shall be examined at a magnification of 175 to 225 diameters. 9.6 Metallographic test for internal defects.

Retests 10.1 Should a te

45、st piece fail any of the tests, additional test pieces shall be taken from the appropriate coil or product of a coil and retested. For wire in coil, two additional test pieces shall be taken from each end of the same coil. Part of the coil may be discarded before taking the new test pieces. For wire

46、 supplied in lengths, four additional test pieces shall be taken at random from the same bundle or bundles representing the product of the coil. 10.2 If all the additional test pieces pass all the tests, the coil or the bundles representing the product of the coil shall be deemed to comply with the

47、requirements of this British Standard. Should any of them fail, the coil or corresponding bundles shall be deemed not to comply with the requirements of this British Standard. 11. Packing and identification Consignments of wire shall be suitably protected against corrosion during transport. If speci

48、al protections are required, these shall be agreed at the time of enquiry or order. Wire in coil or bundles of lengths shall be securely tied and shall carry a suitable label or labels on which shall be shown the ordering designation including the number of this British Standard and details of cast

49、identification. Any other marks required shall be agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer. NOTE. Marking BS 1429 on or in relation to a product is a claim by the manufacturer that the product has been manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the standard. The accuracy of such a claim is therefore solely the manufacturers responsibility. Section three. Specific requirements 12.
