2、6, HEAT STABILIZED MOLDING WSK-M4D648-A COMPOUND NOT TO BE USED FOR NEW DESIGN 1. SCOPE The material defined by this specification is a heat stabilized polyamide 66 molding compound. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally for material used for speedometer drive gears. NOTICE: This

3、 material absorbs and retains moisture. Part design and tolerances must accommodate changes in part dimensions and physical properties due to moisture absorption or loss in the service/assembly environment. 3. REQUIREMENTS Material specification requirements are to be used for initial qualification

4、of materials. 3.0 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to the Companys Standard Requirements For Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). 3.3 CONDITIONING AND TEST CONDITIONS All test values indicated herein are based on material conditioned

5、 in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5% relative humidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified. All test materials immediately after processing have to be sealed in containers that are impermeable to water vapor. If t

6、he moisture content exceeds 0.2%, condition the material for a minimum of 16 h at 40 - 50 C at a reduced pressure below 133 Pa. Conduct tests in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5% relative humidity. Individual specimens shall not be removed from closed containers until immediately b
