29、ndor. 3.3.2 Conductivity: Shall be as follows, determined in accordance with AMS 2355. 3.3.2.1 If the conductivity is 40% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard) or higher and tensile properties meet specified requirements, forgings are acceptable. 3.3.2.2 If the conductivity is 38.0 to 39.9%
30、IACS, inclusive, if tensile properties meet specified requirements, and if the tensile yield strength in the long-transverse direction does not exceed the specified minimum by more than 11.9 ksi (82 MPa), forgings are acceptable. 3.3.2.3 If the conductivity is below 40.0% IACS and the tensile yield
31、strength in the long-transverse direction exceeds the specified minimum value by more than 11.9 ksi (82 MPa), the forgings shall be given additional aging heat treatment.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS: 4.1 Responsibility for Inspection: The vendor of forgings shall supply all samples for vendors tests and shall be responsible for the performance of all required tests. Purchaser reserves the right to sample and
39、to perform any confirmatory testing deemed necessary to ensure that the forgings conform to specified requirements. 4.2 Classification of Tests: 4.2.1 Acceptance Tests: Composition (3.1), tensile properties (3.3.1), conductivity (3.3.2), ultrasonic inspection (3.4.1), surface visual examination (3.4
40、.2) and fluorescent penetrant inspection (3.4.3) are acceptance tests and, except for composition, shall be performed on each inspection lot. 4.2.2 Periodic Tests: Stress-corrosion resistance (3.3.3) and grain flow of die forgings (3.3.4) are periodic tests and shall be performed at a frequency sele
41、cted by the vendor unless frequency of testing is specified by purchaser. 4.3 Sampling and Testing: Shall be in accordance with AMS 2355 and the following: 4.3.1 Ultrasonic inspection (3.4.1), and, when specified, surface imperfections (3.4.2) and fluorescent penetrant inspection (3.4.3): All forgin

REJECTIONS: Forgings not conforming to this specification, or to modifications authorized by purchaser, will be subject to rejection. 8. NOTES: 8.1 A change bar (|) loca
46、ted in the left margin is for the convenience of the user in locating areas where technical revisions, not editorial changes, have been made to the previous issue of a specification. An (R) symbol to the left of the document title indicates a complete revision of the specification, including technic
47、al revision. Change bars and (R) are not used in original publications, nor in specifications that contain editorial changes only. 8.2 Hardness should be as shown in 8.2.1 or 8.2.2, determined in accordance with ASTM E 10. Hardness has been used to verify that forgings have been properly processed,
48、but an “out-of-range hardness number” is not always indicative of forgings with “out-of-specification tensile strength”. Further analysis including material composition verification, heat treat process parameter review, and/or tensile property measurement on forgings with out-of-range hardness may b
