1、Designation: A747/A747M 12Standard Specification forSteel Castings, Stainless, Precipitation Hardening1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A747/A747M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last
2、 revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers iron-chromium-nickel-coppercorrosion-resistant steel castings, capable of being strength-ened b
3、y precipitation hardening heat treatment.1.2 These castings may be used in services requiring corro-sion resistance and high strengths at temperatures up to 600F315C. They may be machined in the solution-annealedcondition and subsequently precipitation hardened to the de-sired high-strength mechanic
4、al properties specified in TableS14.1 with little danger of cracking or distortion.1.3 The material is not intended for use in the solution-annealed condition.NOTE 1If the service environment in which the material is to be usedis considered conducive to stress-corrosion cracking, precipitation hard-
5、ening should be performed at a temperature that will minimize thesusceptibility of the material to this type of attack.1.4 Supplementary requirements of an optional nature areprovided for use at the option of the purchaser. The Supple-mentary requirements shall apply only when specified indi-viduall
6、y by the purchaser in the purchase order or contract.1.5 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand in SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applicable M specification designation (SI units),the inch-pound units shall apply.1.6 The values stated in ei
7、ther SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system 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.1.6.1 Within t

Homogenization Heat TreatmentS26.1 The homogenization heat treatment shall consist ofheating the castings and test material to a minimum of 1900F1040C, holding for a mi

Product MarkingS27.1 The manufacturers name or identification mark andthe pattern number shall be cast or stamped on all castingsexcept those of such small size as to make such markingimpractical. To minimize small defects caused by dislodgedparticles

When further specified, the heatnumbers shall be marked on individual castings.S27.2 When the castings are too small to mark individually,a symbol traceable to the lot shall be placed on the castings andthe required identi
48、fication then placed on a tag affixed to thecontainer in which these castings are shipped.SUMMARY OF CHANGESCommittee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this standard since the last issue(A747/A747M 07) that may impact the use of this standard.
