17、ittee.1of movement of the specimen where it is in contact with the pinhas a considerable effect upon the hole deformation obtained asa function of the load applied. Close control of surfaceconditions on both the specimen and pin is needed to assurereproducible results. The pins used should be unifor

18、m indiameter, hardness, and surface roughness. Pin materials,hardness, and surface roughness as shown in Table 1 arerecommended for testing the materials listed. The pin shouldbe checked carefully after each test to ensure that no metallicresidue adheres to it and that it is both straight and undefo

19、rmed.If there is any question regarding its quality it should bereplaced.5.4 Pin SupportThe jig supporting the pin should positionthe pin concentric with the hole in the specimen. It should notrestrain the thickening of the specimen as the load from the pindeforms the hole. Bending of the pin should

20、 be kept to aminimum by having the jig support the pin close to thespecimen. Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 show examples of the types of jigthat have been used and are considered satisfactory.5.5 ExtensometersExtensometers used for measuring thebearing deformation shall comply with the requirements forClass B-2

21、 or better as described in Practice E83. The bearingdeformation measurement shall be made in a manner to obtainthe axial bearing deformation with a minimum of otherdeformations being included such as the bending of the pin andtensile strain in the specimen. Fig. 2 shows an adaptation of aTemplin ext

Test Specimens6.1 Specimen GeometryThe specimen shall be a f

25、lat sheettype, with the full thickness of the product being used ifpossible. If the specimen is too thick in relation to the pindiameter, the pin is likely to bend considerably or break beforethe bearing strength is obtained. If a specimen is too thin,buckling may occur. A ratio of pin diameter to s

26、pecimenthickness of from 2 to 4 has been used to avoid both conditions.The hole should have approximately the same diameter as forthe intended use. For example, if the bearing test results arebeing used to obtain data for a riveted part, a hole316 in. or14in. (5 or 6 mm) in diameter would be suitabl

27、e, while for abolted assembly, a larger hole might be desirable. A differencein test results may be obtained with holes of different diam-eters. The width of the specimen shall be 4 to 8 times thediameter of the hole. A wider specimen encourages theintended shear-out failure mode. The edge distance

28、ratio shallbe specified and the edge distance held within a tolerance of62 %. Edge distance ratios of 1.50 and 2.00 are commonlyused (see Fig. 1). A close fit between the specimen and pin isrequired, since a loose fit will tend to give lower results. Thediameter of the hole shall not exceed the pin

29、diameter by morethan 0.001 in. (0.02 mm). The free length between the point ofloading and the center of the test pin hole shall be greater than1.5 times the specimen width.

Fig. 1 shows a bearing test specimencommonly used.6.1.1 Specimen orientationThe measured bearing proper-ties can depend on the specimen orientation and the directionin which the load is applied

31、relative to the grain flow in theproduct from which the specimen is extracted. The specimenorientation and the loading direction shall be identified by atwo-letter code as illustrated in Fig. 5. The first letter desig-nates the normal to the expected shear plane. The second letterdesignates the dire

32、ction of force application. This orientationcode is identical to that used for cylindrical and flat shearspecimens in Test Methods B769 and B831.6.1.2 The orientation codes for rectangular shaped productsare indicated in Fig. 5a. The product axes are in the longitu-dinal (L), transverse (T), and sho

33、rt (S) directions. These aresuitable for sheet, plate, extrusions, forgings, and other shapeshaving a rectangle form. The most commonly used specimenorientations are T-L and L-T for thin products. Fig. 5b showsthe orientation codes for cylindrical product forms such as rod,tube, and pipe, where the

34、product axes are in the longitudinal(L), radial (R), and circumferential (C) directions.(a)(b)FIG. 5 Pin Bearing Specimen Orientation Codes for Specimens Taken from (a) Rectangular Shapes and (b) cylindrical shapes.E238 17a46.2 Specimen PreparationA flat specimen with a holenormal to the face shall

35、be used. A smooth, round hole with aminimum of cold work on the surface must be obtained. Thefinished hole is generally bored, reamed, or ground as a finaloperation to obtain the desired degree of roundness. Any burron the periphery of the hole is indicative of a cold-workedsurface on the hole and s

36、hould be avoided. Removal of the burrwill not eliminate the cold work.7. Procedure7.1 Measurement of SpecimensMeasure the actual thick-ness of the specimen and the pin diameter, preferably readingto at least the nearest 0.5 % of the dimension measured, and inany case to at least the nearest 0.001 in

37、. (0.02 mm). Calculatethe stress on the basis of the measured dimensions. Measurethe edge distance to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.2 mm).7.2 CleaningClean the specimen, pin, and adjacent areasof the jig of all foreign matter and contamination, especiallylubricants, prior to assembly. Keep in that conditi

38、on until thetest is completed. It has been found that oil from human fingerstouching the pin significantly lowers the results of the test. Ahandle on the pin has been found to help in keeping fingersfrom touching the test area of the pin. Recommended methodsof cleaning are given in the Appendix X1.3

39、The cleanersrecommended for the materials given in the Appendix X1 aregenerally satisfactory for cleaning the pin and fixtures, too.7.3 TestingLoad the specimen and obtain simultaneousreadings of the load and bearing deformation. Any convenientmethod of load application and system of strain recordin

40、g maybe used.Autographic strain recording equipment can be readilyadapted to measure bearing deformation (see Figs. 1-6).7.4 Conduct the tests at a controlled rate of straining orloading. The recommended rate for metallic materials is 0.05bearing strain per minute. If a testing speed other than a st

41、rainrate of 0.05/min is used, report this fact.8. Determination of Bearing Yield Strength8.1 Determine the bearing yield strength from a graph of thebearing load versus bearing deformation. Fig. 6 is an illustra-tion of such a graph. Calculate the yield strength from the loadat an offset from the in

42、itial straight-line portion of the graphequal to 2 % of the pin diameter. Calculate the stress bydividing the load by the bearing area.9. Determination of Bearing Strength9.1 Calculate the bearing strength by dividing the maximumload carried by the specimen by the bearing area.10. Determination of F
