2、ation covers requirements for a corro-sion resistant black finish over an electrolytically deposited zinc-iron alloy, nickel alloy and/or zinc-nickel alloy substrate. 1.1 Material Description. This coating system shall be free of hexavalent chromate in final prod-uct per GMW3059 requirements. The pl

3、ating shall be called out on the part drawing per example shown in paragraph 7. 1.2 Typical Application. This coating is intended primarily for bulk processed small steel parts such as bolts, screws and nuts used on exterior and in-terior visible parts (cosmetic applications). This coating is especi

4、ally suitable for internal drive (cross recess, 6 lobed socket etc.) threaded fasteners and self drilling and tapping screws. 1.3 Remarks. Use of this coating system on threa-ded surface and/or bearing surface of joints could affect the torque-tension relationship. It is recom-mended that a torque-t

5、ension study of the fastener joint be performed before releasing this finish on any new application. 2 References Note: Only the latest approved standards are applicable unless otherwise specified. 2.1 External Standards/Specifications.

This finish shall provide uniform black color on coated parts. The finished part shall have a gloss of 4 or higher (20 degree gloss me

7、ter per ASTM D523). Note: Gloss level of the finished parts (when small) shall be measured on standard panel (steel, 75 x 200 mm) processed with the production parts. 3.2 Thickness. This finish shall not fill driver re-cess or threads nor interfere with normal fastener installation procedures. The f

8、inish shall withstand normal handling and storage conditions without damage (chipping, flaking or other) and must not stain or transfer to adjacent parts or operators hands. 3.2.1 The total coating system as received shall not adversely affect the drive system: Internal recess dimensions, hex size,

9、etc. or function of the fastener. 3.2.2 Typical zinc-iron (containing 0.4 1.0% Iron), nickel or zinc-nickel (containing 8- 15% nickel) al-loy layer shall be (5-20) m and topcoat layer shall be 25 m max. with a total thickness 45 m. Thickness shall be determined by microscope ex-amination of cross se

In case of nuts,

12、deter-mine at midpoint of flats (wrenching facets). 3.2.3.1 The maximum thickness of coating which may be applied to threads on threaded products is limited by the basic thread size (tolerance h or H). After coating, parts must gage with appropriate basic size G0 thread gage. Threads may be pro-duce

13、d undersize/oversize (before coating) to ac-commodate the coating thickness, providing the finished product (after coating) meets all specified mechanical properties. Where mechanical proper-ties are not specified, undersizing/oversizing is subject to approval by pertinent engineer, and all undersiz

14、e/oversize shall be within permissible limits as agreed upon. 3.2.3.2 Recess Fill Test. Apply the coating to surrogate P/N 11516629 (4.2x 1.4x1.6 round large crown washer head screw with 1A cross recess) or equivalent in production environment (sample size, N= 10 min.). Perform recess tests before a

15、nd after plating to confirm that the recess dimensions are correct on the unplated fastener. Check the recess penetration depth, gage penetration depth and wobble degrees per the drawing requirements (P/N 11516629) to the following recess data on the coated parts: Recess Penetration Depth -2.31- 2.7

16、7 mm Gage Penetration Depth - -1.90- 2.36 mm Wobble Limit- 10 degrees max. Refer to GM Standard Parts specification C200 for penetration gaging and C201 for Wobble gaging instructions Note: The Recess Fill test is required for initial chemicals/ process approval and every PPAP submission of fastener

17、s with recess drive. 3.3 Adhesion. Parts coated to this specification shall show no evidence of blistering or other ap-pearance changes after exposure to humidity testing per GM4465P for 96 h.

For this t

21、est externally threaded fasteners shall be power driven into a tapped hole or nut or steel panel, si-mulating production usage, removed, then installed finger tight or with a hand driver with proper drive bit into acrylic plastic or other inert panel, and ex-posed in salt spray at an angle of 15-30

22、degree from the vertical to allow wetting per SAE/USCAR-1. Fasteners shall not drip on other fasteners during the test. 3.5.1 Normal production processes that are in sta-tistical process control shall yield parts that are capable of meeting the salt spray requirements. 3.5.2 A periodic NSS test of t

23、he parts being pro-cessed on each line running this coating shall be conducted with sample size of three pieces mini-mum per line per shift. 3.5.3 Actual processing control checks to be made and recorded shall be based on chemical manufac-turers instruction. 3.5.4 Parts must be NSS tested to meet th

24、e corrosion resistance requirements on significant surfaces for initial approval of the finish, applicators and PPAP submissions. NSS test need not be completed prior to shipment of parts. 3.5.5 Significant surfaces for test evaluation of fas-teners shall be all exposed surfaces of the fastener when

25、 installed, including but are not limited to fas-tener heads, socket recess, sems washers and external surface of nuts. Fastener threads and point are excluded unless otherwise specified on the drawing. 3.5.6 Significant surfaces on parts other than threaded fasteners shall be all surfaces. Deep re-

26、cesses, such as blind holes and the interior of tubes, are excluded unless otherwise specified on the drawing.
