SCOPE1.1

6、 FormThis specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of compacts produced by pressing and sintering a blend of elemental titanium powder and aluminum-vanadium alloy powder. 1.2 Application These compacts have been used typically for light weight nuts (“B-nuts“) used for connecting fluid lines

7、 to fittings and to equipment, and for other small high-quantity miscellaneous hardware, but usage is not limited to such applications. 1.2.1 Certain processing procedures and service conditions may cause these products to become subject to stress-corrosion cracking; ARP982 recommends practices to m

8、inimize such conditions. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTSThe issue of the following 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 specifi
