5、d 2012-11 Superseding AS1177 Nondestructive Inspection Standards for Bolts and Screws RATIONALE AS1177A has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE five-year review policy. 1. SCOPE:1.1 Purpose:To establish the acceptance criteria of surface discontinuities of bolts and screws.1.1.1 This acceptance c
6、riteria establishes the location, number, size, depth, and type of surface discontinuities that are permitted on bolts and screws as revealed by visual, magnetic particle, or fluorescent penetrant inspection.1.2 Application:Applicable to all types of bolts and screws made of low alloy steel (magneti
7、c) or corrosion and heat resistant alloys (magnetic or nonmagnetic) that are primarily used in aerospace propulsion systems.2. REFERENCES:2.1 Applicable Documents:The following publications form a part of this specification to the extent specified herein. The latest issue of SAE publications shall a

9、clusion, crack, machining tear, or stringer.SAE AS1177A Page 2 of 9 2.2.2 DEFECT: Any nonconformance of the unit of product with the specified requirements that is severe enough to cause the service of the product not to be fulfilled.2.2.3 LAP: A surface imperfection appearing as a seam or crack, ca
10、used by folding of material during such operations as forming, rolling, or drawing.2.2.4 SEAM: Open surface imperfection that is narrow and continuous, usually straight, running generally parallel to the bolt or screw axis. Seams are generally inherent in the bar from which the bolt or screw is made
11、.2.2.5 INCLUSION: Nonmetallic particles inherent in the material when it was made. These particles may be isolated or distributed in the form of longitudinal stringers.2.2.6 CRACK: A fracture passing through or across grain boundaries. Cracks may occur during heat treatment or may be caused by over-
12、stressing the metal during forging of forming.2.2.7 MACHINING TEAR: A pattern of short, jagged individual cracks, generally at right angles to the direction of machining, frequently the result of improperly set cutting tools, or dull cutting tools.2.2.8 STRINGER: A solid nonmetallic impurity in the
13、metal bar, often the result of inclusions that have been extended during the rolling process.3. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS:3.1 Nonpermissible Discontinuities:The following discontinuities shall be cause for rejection of parts inspected by either magnetic particle or fluorescent penetrant inspection proc
14、edures:3.1.1 Discontinuities transverse to grainflow (i.e., at an angle of more than 10 to the axis of the shank), such as cracks, stringers, machining tears, and quench cracks.3.1.2 Longitudinal discontinuities (i.e., at an angle of 10 or less to the axis of the shank) due to discontinuities other
15、than seams, forming laps, and nonmetallic inclusions.3.2 Magnetic Particle Inspection:Parts inspected by magnetic particle inspection shall be considered acceptable if longitudinal discontinuities (i.e., at an angle of 10 or less to the axis of the shank) of seams, forming laps, and nonmetallic incl
16、usions parallel to the grainflow are within the following limits, provided that the separation between discontinuities is not less than 0.06 inch (1.52 mm) in all directions:3.2.1 Sides of Head: There shall be not more than six surface or subsurface discontinuities per head. The length of each disco
17、ntinuity may be the full height of the surface but no discontinuity shall break over either edge to a depth greater than 0.03 inch (0.76 mm) or the equivalent of the basic thread height (see Table 1), whichever is less.SAE AS1177A Page 3 of 9 3.2.2 Shank or Stem: There shall be not more than 10 subs
18、urface and hairline surface discontinuities. The length of any discontinuity may be the full length of the surface but the total length of all discontinuities shall not exceed twice the length of the surface. No discontinuity shall break into a fillet or over an edge.3.2.3 Threads:3.2.3.1 Root defec
19、ts such as laps, seams, notches, slivers, folds, roughness, and oxide scale are not permissible (see Figure 1).3.2.3.2 Multiple laps on the flanks of threads are not permissible regardless of location. Single laps on the flanks of threads that extend toward the root are not permissible (see Figures
20、2 and 3).3.2.3.3 There shall be no laps along the flank of the thread below the pitch diameter (see Figure 4). A single lap is permissible along the flank of the thread above the pitch diameter on either the pressure or nonpressure flank (one lap at any cross-section through the thread) provided it
21、extends toward the crest and generally parallel to the flank (see Figure 4).3.2.3.4 Crest craters, crest laps, or a crest lap in combination with a crest crater are permissible provided that the imperfections do not extend deeper than 20% of the basic thread height (see Table 1) as measured from the
22、 thread crest when the thread major diameter is at minimum size (see Figure 5). The major diameter of the thread shall be measured prior to sectioning. As the major diameter of the thread approaches maximum size, values for depth of crest crater and crest lap imperfections listed in Table 1 may be i
23、ncreased by one-half of the difference between the minimum major diameter and actual major diameter as measured on the part.3.2.4 Top of Head and End of Stem: The number of discontinuities is not restricted but the depth of any individual discontinuity shall not exceed 0.01 inch (0.25 mm). No discon
24、tinuity, except those of 3.2.1, shall break over an edge.3.2.5 Sectioned Specimens: Depth of discontinuities shall be determined by microscopic examination on representative samples of sectioned specimens, polished and etched, of the part discontinuity.3.3 Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection:Parts insp
25、ected by fluorescent penetrant inspection shall be considered acceptable if longitudinal discontinuities (i.e., at an angle of 10 or less to the axis of the shank) of seams and forming laps parallel to the grainflow are within the following limits, provided that the separation between discontinuitie
26、s is not less than 0.06 inch (1.52 mm) in all directions:3.3.1 Sides of Head: There shall be not more than three discontinuities per head. The length of each discontinuity may be the full height of the surface but no discontinuity shall break over either edge to a depth greater than 0.03 inch (0.76
27、mm) or the equivalent of the basic thread height (see Table 1), whichever is less.SAE AS1177A Page 4 of 9 3.3.2 Shank or Stem: There shall be not more than five discontinuities. The length of any discontinuity may be the full length of the surface but the total length of all discontinuities shall no
28、t exceed twice the length of the surface. No discontinuity shall break into a fillet or over an edge.3.3.3 Threads:3.3.3.1 Root defects such as laps, seams, notches, slivers, folds, roughness, and oxide scale are not permissible (see Figure 1).3.3.3.2 Multiple laps on the flanks of threads are not p
29、ermissible regardless of location. Single laps on the flanks of threads that extend toward the root are not permissible (see Figures 2 and 3).3.3.3.3 There shall be no laps along the flank of the thread below the pitch diameter (see Figure 4). A single lap is permissible along the flank of the threa
30、d above the pitch diameter on either the pressure or nonpressure flank (one lap at any cross-section through the thread) provided it extends toward the crest and generally parallel to the flank (see Figure 4).3.3.3.4 Crest craters, crest laps, or a crest lap in combination with a crest crater are pe
31、rmissible provided that the imperfections do not extend deeper than 20% of the basic thread height (see Table 1) as measured from the thread crest when the thread major diameter is at minimum size (see Figure 5). The major diameter of the thread shall be measured prior to sectioning. As the major di
32、ameter of the thread approaches maximum size, values for depth of crest crater and crest lap imperfections listed in Table 1 may be increased by one-half of the difference between the minimum major diameter and actual major diameter as measured on the part.3.3.4 Top of Head and End of Stem: The numb
33、er of discontinuities is not restricted but the depth of any individual discontinuity shall not exceed 0.01 inch (0.25 mm). No discontinuity, except those of 3.3.1, shall break over an edge.3.3.5 Sectioned Specimens: Depth of discontinuities shall be determined by microscopic examination on represen
34、tative samples of sectioned specimens, polished and etched, of the part discontinuity.4. INSPECTION PROCEDURES:4.1 Magnetic Particle Inspection:The inspection shall be conducted in accordance with AMS 2640; any method may be used but resolution of disputed rejections shall be based upon the wet, con
