SCOPE These specifications define performance requirements for electrodeposited chromium flash on polished stainless steel surfaces. 2. APPLICATION These specifications were rel
4、eased originally for a coating where a bright or low gloss decorative and/or protective metallic finish is required on stainless steel surfaces such as exhaust outlet tips or interior and exterior moldings. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and par
5、t producers must conform to the Companys Standard Requirements For Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). 3.2 APPEARANCE All parts shall have the finish bright or low gloss as specified on the engineering drawing. The plated parts shall be free from surface imperfections. Bright or low gloss parts s
6、hall match the approved Styling master sample for appearance. 3.2.1 Low Gloss Finishes These finishes must be applied to the stainless steel, before chrome flashing. 3.2.2 Buffing Chromium Plating Because of the potential adverse effect on corrosion resistance, buffing of final chromium plating on p

At test termination, com
10、ponents must have an acceptable appearance after cleaning with chrome or bright metal polish. The acceptable appearance shall be based on a jury evaluation of at least two people, one person from Ford Exhaust Engineering, and the other from either Ford Exhaust or Materials Engineering. Final judgmen
11、t of corrosion performance should be based on visibility of the parts as observed from the rear of the vehicle as described by in Total Vehicle Corrosion Resistance requirement 18-0040. 3.7 SURFACE FINISH When a low gloss finish is specified for glare reduction surfaces to meet FMVSS requirements, i
12、t shall be designated on the Engineering Drawing. 4. GENERAL INFORMATION The information given below is provided for clarification and assistance in meeting the requirements of these specifications. 4.1 SIGNIFICANT SURFACES Unless otherwise specified on the engineering drawing, significant surfaces
13、are defined as those surfaces of the finished part that: Are directly visible and/or visible by reflection when the finished part is assembled in car position. Can be the source of corrosion products directly visible or visible reflection. Sharp edges, recessed areas, rough surfaces, or welds may ha

These changes may require vehicle testing, consult SDS/ARL requirements. 5. SUMMARY OF REVISIONS 2010 12 14 o Moved WSS-M1P96-B2 to N-Status with WSS-M1P96-B1 as the replacement. o Updated Cyclic Corrosion Test Method Requirements 12 weeks - 9 weeks Added 315C heat soak with ice water bath quench 1x/week Added 3 week evaluation Revise post test evaluation to include cleaning o Added Recommended Testing Table
