SCOPE The materials defined by these specifications are formable, weldable multilayer composites for use in applications where sound reduction is required. These materials consist of a viscoelastic polymer materi
4、al sandwiched between sheets of drawing quality steel meeting the requirements of WSD-M1A333-A2/A3. For variant A5 the steel has a two sided aluminum alloy coating for enhanced higher temperature performance, meeting requirements of WSD-M1A295-A1/A2/A3. The grades have optimized damping loss factors
5、 of 0.1 for the following ranges of temperature: A1 0 - 60 C A2 50 - 110 C A3 70 - 90 C A4 90 - 110 C A5 110 - 250 C A6 50 - 90 C 2. APPLICATION Variant A1 was originally released for body panels and brackets, and variants A2/A3/A4 for oil pans, baffles and engine covers. Variant A5 is intended for
6、enhanced higher temperature performance. Variant A6 is intended for engine front covers. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to the Companys Standard Requirements For Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). 3.2 CONSTRUC
7、TION AND SURFACE TREATMENT 3.2.1 The thickness of the polymer core will vary according to grade. The core thickness is a significant characteristic and the tolerance on an established mean value shall be +/- 0.005 mm. 3.2.2 The steel sheet elements shall conform to WSD-M1A333-A2/A3 with a total thic
8、kness tolerance twice that of the two individual sheets of steel. The material may be supplied with the outside surfaces protected from corrosion via application of oils or forming lubricants or as otherwise specified by the Ford Engineering Drawing. These supplementary materials shall be compatible
9、 with subsequent processes. For variant A5 the steel sheet shall be aluminum coated to meet WSD-M1A295-A1/A2/A3.

Tighten the nut to an applied torque of 48Nm Remeasure the bolt. The increase in length is indicative of the generated clamp load in the jo
17、int. Heat the assembly for 7 days at 90 C and allow to cool. Remeasure the bolt. The reduction in length under load is indicative of a loss of clamp load. Release the torque on the nut and retighten to an applied torque of 48NM and repeat the procedure. No further loss of clamp load shall occur. Bot
