TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS 3.1 Composition Shall conform to the percentage
10、s by weight as shown in Table 1, determined in accordance with AMS2355: TABLE 1 - COMPOSITION Element min maxZinc 3.5 5.0Total Rare Earths (3.1.1) 0.75 1.75 Zirconium, total 0.40 1.0 Manganese (3.1.2) - 0.15 Copper (3.1.2) - 0.10 Nickel (3.1.2) - 0.01 Other Elements, each (3.1.2) - 0.10 Other Elemen
11、ts, total (3.1.2) - 0.30 Magnesium remainder 3.1.1 Total Rare Earths (TRE) are principally a mixture of cerium, lanthanum, neodymium and praseodymium. The cerium content shall not be less than 45% of TRE 3.1.2 Determination not required for routine acceptance. 3.1.3 Chemical analysis of initial ingo
12、t, bar, or rod stock is acceptable provided the processes used for manufacture and cleaning are controlled to ensure conformance to composition requirements, and the facility employs procedures to ensure traceability of wire to the originally analyzed ingot. 3.2 Condition Wire for cut lengths shall
13、be extruded and for spooled wire shall be extruded and sized. Drawn wire may be supplied if acceptable to purchaser. 3.3 Fabrication 3.3.1 Butt welding is permissible provided both ends to be joined are identified by chemical analysis or the repair is made at the wire processing station. The butt we
14、ld shall not interfere with uniform, uninterrupted feeding of the wire in machine welding equipment. 3.3.2 Oxides, dirt, and extruding compounds shall be removed by cleaning processes which will neither result in pitting nor cause gas absorption by the wire or deposition of substances harmful to wel
15、ding operations. 3.4 Properties Wire shall conform to the following requirements: 3.4.1 Weldability Melted wire shall flow smoothly and evenly during welding and shall produce acceptable welds. ARP1876 may be used to resolve disputes. 3.5 Quality Wire, as received by purchaser, shall be uniform in q
16、uality and condition, sound, and free from foreign materials and from imperfections detrimental to welding operations, operation of welding equipment, or properties of the deposited weld metal.SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4392 Page 2 of 5_3.6 Sizes and Tolerances Wire shall be supplied in the sizes and to t
17、he tolerances shown in 3.6.1 and 3.6.2. 3.6.1 Diameter Shall conform to the tolerances as shown in Table 2.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS 4.1 Responsibility for Inspection The vendor of wire shall supply all samples for vendors tests and shall be responsible for the performance of all required tests. P
20、urchaser reserves the right to sample and to perform any confirmatory testing deemed necessary to ensure that the wire conforms to specified requirements. 4.2 Classification of Tests 4.2.1 Acceptance Tests Composition (3.1) and sizes and tolerances (3.6) are acceptance tests and shall be performed o
21、n each lot. 4.2.2 Periodic Tests Weldability (3.4.1) is a periodic test and shall be performed at a frequency selected by the vendor unless frequency of testing is specified by purchaser. 4.3 Sampling and Testing Shall be in accordance with AMS2355. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4392 Page 3 of 5_4.4 Reports
22、The vendor of wire shall furnish with each shipment a report stating that the wire conforms to the composition and other technical requirements of this specification. This report shall include the purchase order number, lot number, AMS4392, nominal size, and quantity. 4.5 Resampling and Retesting Sh
23、all be in accordance with AMS2355. 5. PREPARATION FOR DELIVERY 5.1 Wire shall be supplied on spools in one continuous length for machine welding or in cut lengths for manual welding, as ordered. 5.2 Wire on each spool shall be of one continuous length from the same heat of alloy. Packages of cut len
24、gths shall not contain wire from more than one heat of alloy. 5.3 Wire furnished on spools shall be closely wound in layers but adjacent turns within a layer need not necessarily be touching. Wire shall be wound so as to avoid producing kinks, waves, and sharp bends, and shall be free to unwind with
25、out restriction caused by overlapping or wedging. 5.4 Wire from each spool or package of cut lengths shall be alloy verified by a method acceptable to purchaser. The alloy verification procedures of ARP4926 are recommended. 5.4.1 An 8-inch (203-mm) length of wire shall be made accessible at both end
26、s of each spool for alloy verification. 5.5 Packaging and Marking Shall be in accordance with AMS2813. 6. ACKNOWLEDGMENT A vendor shall mention this specification number in all quotations and when acknowledging purchase orders. 7. REJECTIONS Wire not conforming to this specification, or to modificat
27、ions authorized by purchaser, will be subject to rejection. 8.

An (R) symbol to the left
28、 of the document title indicates a complete revision of the document, including technical revisions. Change bars and (R) are not used in original publications, nor in documents that contain editorial changes only. 8.2 Terms used in AMS are clarified in ARP 1917. 8.3 Dimensions and properties in inch
29、/pound units and the Fahrenheit temperatures are primary; dimensions and properties in SI units and the Celsius temperatures are shown as the approximate equivalents of the primary units and are presented only for information. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4392 Page 4 of 5_8.4 Purchase documents should specify not less than the following: AMS4392 Size and form (spools or cut lengths) of wire required Weight of spools required Quantity of wire required.
