2、tion A194/A194M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revisio
3、n or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers a variety of carbon, alloy, andmartensitic stainless steel nuts in the size range14 through 4in. and metric M6 through M100 nominal. It also coversaustenitic stainl
4、ess steel nuts in the size range14 in. and M6nominal and above. These nuts are intended for high-pressureor high-temperature service, or both. Grade substitutions with-out the purchasers permission are not allowed.1.2 Bars from which the nuts are made shall be hot-wrought.The material may be further
5、 processed by centerless grindingor by cold drawing. Austenitic stainless steel may be solutionannealed or annealed and strain-hardened. When annealed andstrain hardened austenitic stainless steel is ordered in accor-dance with Supplementary Requirement S1, the purchasershould take special care to e
6、nsure that 8.2.2, SupplementaryRequirement S1, and Appendix X1 are thoroughly understood.1.3 Supplementary requirements (S1 through S8) of anoptional nature are provided. These shall apply only whenspecified in the inquiry, contract, and order.1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound u
7、nitsand in SI units. However, unless the order specifies theapplicable“ M” specification designation (SI units), the mate-rial shall be furnished to inch-pound units.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system
8、 may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.
