11、neral 3.1.1 Omission from this specification of confirmatory tests of certain material properties or attributes controlled by the applicable material specification does not relieve the vendor of responsibility for furnishing products that conform in all respects to the applicable material specificat
12、ion. 3.1.2 In event of conflict between requirements specified herein and requirements of a particular material specification, requirements of the material specification shall take precedence. 3.2 Responsibility for Tests The vendor of the product shall supply all samples for vendors tests and shall
13、 be responsible for the performance of all required tests. Results of such tests shall be reported to the purchaser as required by the applicable material specification. 3.3 Detail Requirements 3.3.1 Lot A lot shall be as defined in 3.3.1.1 or 3.3.1.2; the applicable definition being as specified in
14、 Table 2 for the type of test and type of product being tested. 3.3.1.1 A lot shall be restricted to the product of a single heat. 3.3.1.1.1 A heat shall be all steel melted in a single furnace charge. For consumable electrode remelted steel, a heat shall be all consumable electrode remelted ingots
15、processed from steel originally melted as a single furnace charge. 3.3.1.2 A lot shall be a mill form of one shape, condition, and nominal cross-sectional dimensions from a single heat, processed in accordance with 3.3.1.2.1 or 3.3.1.2.2. 3.3.1.2.1 Sequentially heat treated during a 24-hour period i
16、n a continuous furnace with no interruption in operations and no change in furnace temperature, charge rate, or racking pattern. 3.3.1.2.1.1 The nominal cross-sectional dimension restriction may be disregarded when multiple sizes are heat treated in a single batch or during an 8-hour period in a con
17、tinuous furnace operating at a constant speed. In such cases, tensile and macrostructure testing shall be performed on the size having the greatest equivalent round cross-section. The equivalent round cross-section shall be determined by multiplying wall thickness of tubing and thickness or diameter
18、 of solids by the shape factors shown in Table 1. Table 1 - Shape factors Product Shape Factor Tubing 2.0 Rounds 1.0 Hexagons 1.1 Squares 1.25 Flats 1.50 SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS2370L Page 3 of 10 3.3.1.2.2 Sequentially heat treated during a 48-hour period in one or a series of batch-type furnace loads
19、 provided the loads are processed in the same furnace or same series of furnaces, and at the same power setting, set temperature, soak time, quench parameters, and racking pattern. 3.3.2 Sampling and Testing Shall be in accordance with Table 2 and as follows: 3.3.2.1 Composition 3.3.2.1.1 The report
20、ed composition of the steel subjected to a single melting operation shall be that of a sample taken immediately before or during the pouring of a heat. Analysis results of the sample shall be within the composition limits established by the material specification, excluding any consideration of prod
21、uct check analysis. 3.3.2.1.1.1 If the sample of 3.3.2.1.1 is lost, a new sample shall be taken from the semi-finished or finished product. 3.3.2.1.2 For remelted steels, analyses shall be obtained from the remelted ingot or product thereof in accordance with a sampling plan that will allow the repo
22、rted composition of the steel to conform to one of the following options: The average of all ingots in the remelted heat. The average of the ingots directly involved with the order. The average of samples representing the first and last usable metal poured from the heat. The analysis of each ingot i
23、nvolved with the order. 3.3.2.1.2.1 If an average for an element is reported, each analysis of the element shall fall within the compositional limits established by the material specification; each individual analysis may include the applicable product check analysis allowance, but no average shall
24、include analyses that are both above and below the compositional limits. 3.3.2.1.2.2 When the remelting method is vacuum-arc remelting and the applicable material specification establishes minimum values for carbon and/or manganese, these elements shall be determined and reported for each remelted i
25、ngot. 3.3.2.1.2.3 The heat analysis may be used for reporting the analyses of those elements governed only by a maximum in the material specification if the analysis is within the compositional limits and the element routinely decreases or remains constant during remelting. 3.3.2.1.2.4 Analyses of s
26、amples made prior to discard need not be reported. 3.3.2.2 Tensile Specimen Orientation, Location, and Size Tensile specimens conforming to ASTM E8/E8M shall be cut from the semi-finished or finished product in the direction indicated in the following paragraphs, and shall be cut from the locations
27、and to the sizes specified.
