The product shall not show a layer of complete (ferrite) or partial decarburization exceeding the limits of Table 3. Hardness Traverse Method The total depth of decarburization

34、shall be determined by a traverse method using microhardness testing in accordance with ASTM E384, at a magnification not exceeding 100X, conducted on a hardened but untempered specimen protected during heat treatment to prevent changes in surface carbon content. Tempering is generally not recommend

35、ed, but if tempered, the tempering temperature shall be not higher than 300 F (149 C). Depth of decarburization is defined as the perpendicular distance from the surface to the depth under that surface where there is not further increase in hardness. Such measurements shall be far enough away from a

36、ny adjacent surface to be uninfluenced by any decarburization on the adjacent surface. Acceptance shall be as listed in Table 3. When determining the depth of decarburization, it is permissible to disregard local areas provided the decarburization of such areas does not exceed the above limits by mo

37、re than 0.005 inch (0.13 mm) and the width is 0.065 inch (1.65 mm) or less. In case of dispute, the total depth of decarburization determined using the microhardness traverse method shall govern. 3.4 Quality The product, as received by purchaser, shall be uniform in quality and condition, sound, and

38、 free from foreign materials and from imperfections detrimental to usage of the product. 3.4.1 Steel shall be aircraft-quality conforming to AMS2301. 3.4.2 Bars and tubing ordered hot rolled or cold finished, or ground, turned, or polished shall, after removal of the standard stock removal allowance

40、ain flow. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS6440S Page 6 of 8 3.5 Tolerances 3.5.1 Bars In accordance with AMS2251. 3.5.2 Mechanical Tubing In accordance with AMS2253. 4.
