1、Designation: A453/A453M 11Standard Specification forHigh-Temperature Bolting, with Expansion CoefficientsComparable to Austenitic Stainless Steels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A453/A453M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption o
2、r, 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 revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*
3、1.1 This specification2covers five grades of bolting withtwelve classes of yield strength ranging from 50 to 120 ksi 345to 827 MPa for use in high-temperature service such asfasteners for pressure vessel and valve flanges. See Specifica-tion A962/A962M for the definition of bolting. The materialrequ
4、ires special processing and is not intended for generalpurpose applications.1.2 The following referenced general requirements are in-dispensable for application of this specification: SpecificationA962/A962M.1.3 Supplementary Requirements are provided for use at theoption of the purchaser. The Suppl
5、ementary Requirementsshall only apply when specified individually by the purchaserin the purchase order or contract.1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand in SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applicable “M” specification designation (SIuni
6、ts), the inch-pound units shall apply.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each systemshall be used independe
7、ntly of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in non-conformance with thestandard.2.

17、uirements of thisspecification and SpecificationA962/A962M, this specificationshall prevail.6. Materials and Manufacture6.1 Finishing Process:6.1.1 Threads may be formed by machining or rolling.Threads may be formed after precipitation heat treatment orafter solution anneal but prior to precipitatio
18、n heat treatment.Type designations are as follows:Type M1threads formed by machining after precipitationheat treatment.Type M2threads formed by machining after solutionanneal but prior to precipitation heat treatment.Type R1threads formed by rolling after precipitation heattreatment.Type R2threads f
19、ormed by rolling after solution annealbut prior to precipitation heat treatment.When not specified by the purchaser, the type supplied shallbe the option of the manufacturer.6.2 Heat TreatmentEach grade and class shall be heattreated as prescribed in Table 4.7.

Mechanical Properties8.1 Tension Test:8.1.1 RequirementsThe material in each heat-treatmentcharge shall conform to the room-temperature tensile require-ments in Table 5.8.1.2 Number of Specimens:8.1.2.1 Heat-Treated BarsWhen
21、 not more than two sizesof bars are heat treated in the same load, one tension test shallbe made from each size in each heat of material in theheat-treatment charge (see 3.1.1). When more than two sizes ofbars are treated in the same charge, one tension test shall bemade from one bar of each of the

27、nsions ofTable 7, may be tested under the above conditions. The notchedspecimen need not be tested to rupture but shall not rupture inless time than the companion smooth specimen.8.2.4.4 When the minimum specified time to rupture inTable 6 has been achieved, incremental loading may be used toacceler
28、ate the time to rupture. At intervals of 8 to 16 h,preferably 8 to 10 h, the stress shall be increased in incrementsof 5000 psi 34.5 MPa. Rupture location, and elongationrequirements shall be as prescribed in Table 6, 8.2.4.2, and8.2.4.3.8.3 Hardness Test:8.3.1 RequirementsThe material shall conform
