5、010-08 Reaffirmed 2015-05 Superseding AMS2300K Steel Cleanliness, Premium Aircraft-Quality Magnetic Particle Inspection Procedure RATIONALE AMS2300L has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE five-year review policy. 1. SCOPE 1.1 This specification covers steel cleanliness requirements in inch/pound
6、 units for premium aircraft-quality ferromagnetic steels, including hardenable, corrosion-resistant steels, by magnetic particle inspection methods. This specification contains sampling, sample preparation, inspection procedures and cleanliness rating criteria (See 8.2). 1.1.1 The metric version, MA
7、M2300, has been cancelled. The SI units have been included in this specification, but the inch/pound units are primary (See 8.8). 1.2 Application This procedure has been used typically for the cleanliness evaluation of blooms, billets, tube rounds, stock for forging or flash welded rings, slabs, bar
8、s, sheet, plate, tubing, and extrusions used in fabricating highly stressed parts where very strict magnetic particle inspection standards are used in final inspection of such parts, but may be used for qualification of a heat, melt or lot of steel. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS The issue of the following
9、 documents in effect on the date of the purchase order forms a part of this specification to the extent specified herein. The supplier may work to a subsequent revision of a document unless a specific document issue is specified. When the referenced document has been cancelled and no superseding doc
10、ument has been specified, the last published issue of that document shall apply. 2.1 ASTM Publications Available from ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, P.O.

40、eating to produce hardness of 248 to 352 HB or appropriate lower hardness for steel of low hardenability. Hardness testing shall be in accordance with ASTM E 10. Specimens shall be austenitized in a neutral or slightly reducing atmosphere. Following heat treatment, surface scale may be removed by gr

If a stepdown bar is used, the
43、smallest step shall be magnetized and inspected first; the larger steps shall be magnetized and inspected individually in succession of increasing size until all steps have been evaluated. If a longitudinal slice from slab or plate, as in 3.2.3.5 is used, only the longitudinal surfaces perpendicular
44、 to the two faces of the slab or plate shall be inspected. 3.3.1 Cleanliness standards presented herein govern nonmetallic inclusions only (See 8.3). Steel that, during inspection, reveals indications representing actual ruptures, such as cracks, seams, laminations, and laps, will be subject to reje
45、ction except where these defects result from sample preparation. If such indications are the consequence of sample preparation, a replacement retest sample may be obtained from material adjacent to the original test location. 3.3.2 The results of the magnetic particle testing shall be appropriately
46、recorded. All recorded results shall be identified, filed, and made available to purchaser upon request. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS2300L Page 5 of 11_ 3.4 Evaluation of Steel Cleanliness After inspection, each indication 1/64 inch (0.4 mm) and over shall be recorded on an inspection chart. All recorded r
47、esults shall be identified, filed, and, upon request, made available to purchaser. Records shall be available for at least three years after shipment of the product. The frequency rating (F) (number) and the severity rating (S) (length) of the indications shall be calculated as follows: 3.4.1 Freque
48、ncy (F) 3.4.1.1 The number of indications per test specimen is totaled. 3.4.1.2 The frequency rating per specimen is determined by dividing the total number of indications for each specimen by the test surface area of the specimen in square inches (by dividing 6.45 times the total number of indications for ea
