35、his torque may be determined by formula or by calibrating torque against a load cell assimilating the test assembly 3) . For the elongation loading method, the load is achieved by measuring bolt extension; this extension may be determined by formula or by calibrating extension against a load cell as

Keep the bolt at ambient temperature in the loaded condition for the period of time
37、specified in the procurement specification or definition document. At the end of this time, disassemble and examine the bolt for the presence of cracks. Bolts suspected of having cracks shall be sectioned and microscopically examined using 100 magnification. Cracked or fractured test bolts constitut
38、e failure of the bolt. 3.5 Inspection for grinding burns 3.5.1 Procedure 3.5.1.1 Clean Remove all foreign matter from the bolts such as grease, dirt or oxide film. 3.5.1.2 Wetting test Rinse the bolts in cold water. If water breaks occur, reclean the bolts. 3.5.1.3 “Nital” etch Immerse the bolts for
39、2min to2,5min in a3% (V/V) solution of nitric acid (relativedensity1,38) in ethanol, at ambient temperature. Agitate the bath. 3.5.1.4 Rinse Rinse the bolts for at least2min in running water at a temperature below25 C. 3.5.1.5 Bleaching Immerse the bolts for2min to2,5min in a5% (V/V) solution of hyd
40、rochloric acid (relativedensity1,18) in ethanol, at ambient temperature. Agitate the bath. 3.5.1.6 Rinse Rinse the bolts for10s to30s in running water at a temperature below25 C. 3.5.1.7 Neutralization Neutralization may be performed with either of the following baths: 3.5.1.7.1 Ammonia solution Imm
41、erse the bolts for30s to60s in a solution of50g/l of ammonia (relative density0,90), at ambient temperature. 3.5.1.7.2 Soda solution Immerse the bolts for30s to60s in a solution of50g/l of soda at ambient temperature. 3.5.1.8 Rinse Rinse the bolts for10s to30s in running water at a temperature below
42、25 C. 3.5.1.9 Dry Dry the bolts with filtered compressed air at ambient temperature. 3.5.1.10 Examine for grinding burns These burns appear as either white streaks (untempered martensite) or dark grey (zone of overtempering) on an even light grey background on the surface of the bolts. 3.5.1.11 De-e
43、mbrittle Carry out a maximum of12h of “Nital” etch(3.5.1.3) de-embrittlement treatment on the bolts at a temperature of130 C 10 C or190 C 10 C for at least2h, depending on whether the tempering temperature of the parts is less than or equal to200 C or greater than200 C. NOTE 3After bleaching (3.5.1.
44、5) and up to drying (3.5.1.9), operations should be carried out quickly to avoid oxidation. This oxidation builds up a chamois colour reducing contrast at a defect. Rinsing in running water at a temperature below25 C produces a uniform light grey colour on bolts without grinding defects, instead of
45、a chamois colour for higher temperatures. 3.6 Tensile test at elevated temperature 3.6.1 Apparatus 3.6.1.1 Test device, as specified in3.1.1.1.

49、ns of the machine. 3.6.2.2 Heat the furnace to the temperature specified in the procurement specification or definition document.
