2、ined by this specification is steel sheet which has enhanced strength compared to CRLC steel. Specification WSS - M1P94 - A shall be specified where preco ating by the steel supplier is required. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally for material used in body components to improv

3、e dent resistance. Due to higher tensile and yield strength properties attainable with this product, downgaging with subsequent cost and weight savings are possible. CAUTION: The maximum yield strength is not specified, therefore for test or evaluation purposes, it is essential that prototype parts

4、are produced using material with maximum yield strengths with in 10 % of the grade level specified. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 QUALITY SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to Quality System Requirements, QS - 9000. Material specification requirements are to be used for ini

5、tial qualification of materials. A Control Plan for ongoing production verification is required. This plan must be reviewed and approved by the relevant Ford Materials activity and/or Ford Supplier Technical Assistance (STA) prior to production parts submission. App ropriate statistical tools must b

6、e used to analyze process/product data and assure consistent processing of the materials. Part producers using this material in their products, must use Ford approved materials and must conform to a process control plan which has been approved by STA and/or the relevant Materials Activity. 3.2 CHEMI

In all cases, 50 mm will be considered the umpire standard gage length. 3.4 GRAIN SIZE No. 8 and finer (ASTM E 112) 3.5 BEND TEST (ASTM A 607) Test samples shall pass a 180 degree transverse bend test at room temperature with the inside bend diameter not exceeding

10、the specimen thickness. 3.6 SURFACE FINISH The material shall have a workmanlike appearance and shall not have defects of a nature or degree for the grade and quality ordered that will be detrimental to the fabrication of the finished part. The need for a final temper mill reduction to control surfa

ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS - M1A339 - A1 WP 3948 - b Page 3 of 5 3.9 FORMABILITY The quality level of steel supplied to fabricate a specific component is to be negotiated between the Manufacturing activity and the steel supplier. Acceptance of subsequent orders by the s

14、teel supplier for a given component at the agreed upon quality level implies that all steel supplied will form that part satisfactorily as defined by the Manufacturing activity. 3.10 SUPPLIERS RESP ONSIBILITY All materials supplied to this specification must be equivalent in all characteristics to t

15、he material upon which approval was originally granted. Prior to making any change in the properties, composition, construction, color, processing or labeling of the material originally approved under this specification, whether or not such changes affect the materials ability to meet the specificat

16、ion requirements, the Supplier shall notify Purchasing, Toxicology and the affected Materials Engineeri ng activity of the proposed changes and obtain the written approval of the Materials Engineering activity. Test data, test samples and a new code identification are to be submitted with the reques

17、t. Substance restrictions imposed by law, regulations or Ford, apply to the materials addressed by this document. The restrictions are defined in Engineering Materials Specification WSS - M99P9999 - A1. 4. APPROVAL OF MATERIALS Materials defined by this specification must have prior approval by the

18、responsible M aterials Engineering activity. Suppliers desiring approval of their materials shall first obtain an expression of interest from the affected Purchasing, Design and Materials Engineering activity. Upon request, the Supplier shall submit to the affected Materials Engineering activity a c

19、ompleted copy of their laboratory test reports, signed by a qualified and authorized representative of the test facility, demonstrating full compliance with all the requirements of this specification (test results, not nomina l values), the material designation and code number, and test specimens fo
