SCOPE1.1 FormThis specification covers an aircraft-quality, low-alloy
6、 steel in the form of bars, forgings, mechanical tubing, and forging stock.1.2 ApplicationThese products have been used typically for carburized parts for which intermediate minimum core hardness is required and for which a wide hardness range in sections 0.375 inch (9.52 mm) and under in nominal th
7、ickness is acceptable, but usage is not limited to such applications. The core may or may not be machinable after hardening.2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTSThe issue of the following documents in effect on the date of the purchase order forms a part of this specification to the extent specified herein. The s
8、upplier may work to a subsequent revision of a document unless a specific document issue is specified. When the referenced document has been cancelled and no superseding document has been specified, the last published issue of that document shall apply.2.1 SAE PublicationsAvailable from SAE Internat
