15、 This standard makes reference to the following BritishStandards: BS309, Whiteheart malleable iron castings. BS427, Tables of diamond pyramid hardness numbers. BS860, Table of approximate comparison of hardness scales. BS970, Wrought steels. BS1978, Bit braces. This British Standard has been prepare
16、d under the authority of the Mechanical Engineering Industry Standards Committee and forms one of a series relating to the most commonly used hand tools. As in related standards, the tools included are those intended for the use of craftsmen, amongst the provisions being the analysis of the steel us
17、ed for their manufacture. The quality and soundness of manufacture of the tools are also further ensured by the clauses on heat treatment, hardness, finish and accuracy. Tables of nominal sizes and dimensions relate to one type of auger and three types of auger bit and the standard is completed by t
18、he tests of soundness and performance. As auger bits are required to function in bit braces, the diameter of the shanks and dimensions of the square taper tangs have been correlated with the design and dimensions of the chucks of bit braces as provided in BS1978 1) , thus ensuring that the auger bit
19、s will be gripped, turned and released by the chucks in a satisfactory manner. It is emphasized that the tools dealt with in this standard are those required by craftsmen for general purposes, for which reason those designed for special application, such as auger bits for dowelling, have not been in
20、cluded. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document co
21、mprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to16, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover. 1) BS1978, “Bit brace
22、s.”BS2054:1953 BSI 12-1999 1 Section 1. General 1 Scope This British Standard gives the nominal sizes and dimensions of the following types of auger and auger bit: Scotch pattern eyed auger, with round shank. Solid centre auger bit(Jennings pattern nose). Scotch pattern auger bit. Jennings pattern a
23、uger bit. The nomenclature used is defined on an annotated drawing. Provisions are given relating to steel analysis, heat treatment, hardness, finish, accuracy, soundness and performance tests. 2 Nomenclature For the purposes of this BritishStandard the terms used for augers and auger bits shall be
24、those shown on Figure 1. Section 2. Manufacture 3 Material a) Augers and auger bits. Augers and auger bits(with the exception of the auger eyes) to which this BritishStandard relates shall be manufactured from steel having the following analysis: b) Auger eyes. The eyes of the augers shall be manufa
25、ctured from any one of the following materials: Wrought iron Mild steel to any suitable mild steel specification in BS970. 2) Whiteheart malleable iron to BS309. 3) c) Handles. Auger handles shall be manufactured from ash. 4 Heat treatment and hardness The twist and the cutting edge of augers and au
26、ger bits shall be hardened and tempered to produce a hardness reading within the range450/520 on the diamond pyramid scale, 4)using a load of10kg., except that the hardness reading at the commencement of the twist adjacent to the shank shall be within the range360/420 on the same scale using a simil
27、ar load. Alternatively, equivalent figures on other approved hardness scales may be used. 5) 5 Accuracy a) The screw lead shall lie in the centre of the cutting edges which shall cut equally and simultaneously. b) The nose, the twist, the round shank and, in the case of auger bits, the tang, shall b
28、e concentric with the axis of the tool. The concentricity accuracy of auger bits shall be such that when the bit is gripped in the chuck of a bit brace, which complies with the provisions of BS1978, 6)there shall be an annular clearance between the end of the jaws at the outer end of the shell and t
29、he round shank of the auger bit (seeAppendix). When the bit brace is turned the bit shall rotate concentrically with the axis of the chuck. 6 Auger handles a) Quality of wood. The timber from which handles are manufactured shall be straight grained and free from defects. b) Moisture content. The moi
30、sture content of the timber from which handles are manufactured, asdetermined by any suitable process, shall be not less than ten per cent and not more thanfifteenper cent. c) Dimensions. The dimensions of the handles shall be those given in Table 5. Percentages Carbon Not less than0.60 and not more
31、than0.75 Silicon Not less than0.1 and not morethan0.30 Sulphur Not more than0.045 Phosphorus Not more than0.045 Manganese Not less than0.25 and not morethan0.65 2) BS970, “Wrought steels.” 3) BS309, “Whiteheart malleable iron castings.” 4) BS427, “Tables of diamond pyramid hardness numbers.” 5) BS86
32、0, “Table of approximate comparison of hardness scales.” 6) BS1978, “Bit braces.”BS2054:1953 2 BSI 12-1999 7 Finish a) Augers. The nose shall be cleanly finished. Nominal sizes up to and including1in. shall be bright through nose and nominal sizes above1in. shall be left black through nose. The comp
33、lete twist and2in. of the shank adjacent to the twist shall be ground and glazed while the rest of the tool shall be smooth and painted. b) Auger bits. The nose shall be cleanly finished and all sizes shall be bright through nose. The complete twist and shank shall be ground and glazed but the tang
34、shall be left as forged. c) Handles. Handles for use with augers shall be smoothly finished. d) General. Augers and auger bits shall be supplied sharpened and ready for use. 8 Dimensions a) General dimensions. The range of nominal sizes and the general dimensions of augers and auger bits(with the ex
35、ception of the tang) to which this BritishStandard relates shall be those given in Table 1 to Table 4 inclusive. b) Tangs. The nominal dimensions of the tangs of auger bits shall be those given below: i) Bits with shank diameter under 3 / 8 in. The tang shall be 3 / 8 in. square tapering to 3 / 16 i
36、n. square, with a length of1 1 / 4 in. ii) Bits with shank diameter of 3 / 8 in. and larger. The tang shall be 13 / 32 in. square tapering to 13 / 64 in. square, with a length of1 1 / 4 in. iii) Angle. The nominal included angle of the taper shall be9degrees. c) Screw lead. The screw leads of augers
37、 and auger bits shall have a single or double start thread according to the provisions of Table 1 to Table 4 inclusive and the number of threads per inch shall be those given in Table 1 to Table 4 inclusive, but alternative threads may be provided by arrangement between the purchaser and the manufac
38、turer. 9 Marking The augers and auger bits shall be suitably marked, on the shank or tang, with the nominal size. 10 Soundness and performance tests Augers and auger bits complying with the provisions of this BritishStandard shall be capable of passing the tests detailed below appropriate to their t
39、ype. The shock test and twisting test are designed each to ensure the soundness of the weld between the eye and the auger shank. The performance test ensures satisfactory boring properties. a) Soundness of weld test on augers. The weld shall be completely sound upon completion of either of the follo
40、wing tests: i) Shock test. With the twist of the auger held securely in the hand above a solid steel block supported on a bench or table, the auger shall be raised to a height of18in to24in above the upper face of the block and brought down quickly to cause the auger weld to strike a sharp blow agai
41、nst the upper face of the block. This blow shall be repeated three times consecutively. ii) Twisting test. With the shank of the auger securely and positively gripped adjacent to the twist in a vice or other suitable fixture, a steel bar having a length equal to that of the appropriate handle and a
42、diameter 1 / 16 in smaller than the bore of the auger eye shall be disposed centrally in the auger eye and used to subject the auger shank to the maximum torque that can be applied manually. The torque shall act normally about the axis of the auger and the angle through which the shank is twisted sh
43、all in no case exceed30 b) Performance tests on augers and auger bits. i) The tool shall bore satisfactorily across the grain to a minimum depth of75 per cent of the length of its twist, into a piece of sound oak or similar hardwood of suitable dimensions. The tool shall not be withdrawn during the
44、test. ii) When the bore reaches the depth given inb)i) overleaf, the tool shall withdraw easily. iii) In addition to the hardwood boring test described in b)i) andii), auger bits with a Jennings pattern nose shall bore cleanly and smoothly through soft wood. Following these tests the augers and auge
45、r bits shall show no sign of damage, fracture or flaws.BS 2054:1953 BSI 12-1999 3 Figure 1 Nomenclature of augers and auger bitsBS 2054:1953 4 BSI 12-1999 Figure 2 Scotch pattern eyed auger round shankBS2054:1953 BSI 12-1999 5 Table 1 Dimensions of scotch pattern eyed augers: round shanks Alphabetic
