43、t satisfy the property requirements of this specification. 8.4 Notes Applicable to Finished Springs Requirements pertaining to finished springs have been removed from this specification because it was determined that the specification is used for procurement of wire, but rarely if ever used for proc

44、urement of finished springs. Other specifications and/or drawings are normally used for that purpose.

45、peening, if required, should be in accordance with AMS2430 with parameters specified by the purchaser. 8.4.3 Magnetic particle inspection of finished springs should be accomplished in accordance with ASTM E1444 or equivalent with acceptance criteria as agreed upon by purchaser and spring purchaser.

46、8.4.4 Hardness of finished springs is typically 43 to 46 HRC (see 8.2). 8.4.5 Finished spring surfaces, as received by purchaser, should be uniform and free from pits, nicks, scratches, and marks due to grinding, drawing, or coiling, and from other imperfections detrimental to performance of the spr

47、ings. 8.4.6 Approval, sampling, and inspection of springs, prior to shipping of production springs, should be agreed upon by purchaser and spring purchaser. 8.4.7 Springs of different part numbers should be shipped in separate containers, each marked with the appropriate part number and shall be pac

48、kaged to ensure that the finished springs are protected against mechanical damage and exposure to moisture. 8.4.8 Finished springs should contain no welds. 8.5 Terms used in AMS are clarified in ARP1917. 8.6 Dimensions and properties in inch/pound units and the Fahrenheit temperatures are primary; d

49、imensions and properties in SI units and the Celsius temperatures are shown as the approximate equivalents of the primary units and are presented only for information. 8.7 Purchase documents should specify not less than the following: AMS6450K Form (coils, spools, or cut lengths) and size of wire desired Quantity of wire Special packaging, if required PREPARED BY AMS COMMITTEE “E”
