20、hardness of 40 HRC and above and which are machined, ground, cold formed or cold straightened shall be cleaned to remove surface contamination and thermally stress relieved before plating for the relief of residual tensile stresses. Residual tensile stresses have been found to be damaging during ele

21、ctrofinishing. 3.1.1.1 For parts having a hardness of 55 HRC and above, including carburized and induction hardened parts, stress relief at 275 F 25 (135 C 14) for a minimum of 5 hours.

22、of 4 hours. Higher temperatures shall be used only when specified or approved by the cognizant engineering organization. 3.1.1.3 For peened parts If stress relief temperatures above 375 F (191 C) are elected, the stress relief shall be performed prior to peening or the cognizant engineering organiza

23、tion shall be consulted and shall approve the stress relief temperature. 3.1.2 The plating shall be applied over a surface free from water breaks. The cleaning procedure shall not produce pitting or intergranular attack of the basis metal and shall preserve dimensional requirements. 3.1.3 Except for

24、 barrel plating, electrical contact points shall be as follows. For parts that are to be plated all over, locations shall be acceptable to purchaser, for parts that are not to be plated all over, locations shall be in areas on which plating is not required. 3.1.4 Aluminum alloys shall be zincate tre

25、ated in accordance with ASTM B 253 or other method acceptable to the cognizant engineering organization prior to plating. 3.2 Procedure 3.2.1 Parts shall be plated by electrodeposition of nickel from a sulfamate solution or other suitable plating solution containing no addition agents, including str

26、ess-reducing agents, which might have a detrimental effect on properties of the plate or of the basis metal. The addition of organic wetting agents for the purpose of lower surface tension and to avoid gas-pitting is permitted. Except as permitted by 3.2.1.1, nickel shall be deposited directly on th

27、e basis metal without a prior flash coating of metal other than nickel. 3.2.1.1 On magnesium, beryllium, and their alloys, and corrosion-resistant steels or similarly passive materials, a preliminary chemical coating, immersion plate, or metal flash acceptable to the cognizant engineering organizati

28、on is permissible. 3.2.2 Spotting in is not permitted. 3.3 Post Treatment 3.3.1 Hydrogen Embrittlement Relief Hydrogen embrittlement relief baking applies only to steel alloys unless otherwise specified by the cognizant engineering organization.
