A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for

3、 use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers zinc coatings applied by the hot-dip process on iron and steel hardware. The hot-dip galvanizingprocess consists of parts being immersed in molten zinc for a sufficient time to allow a metallurgical reaction be

4、tween iron fromthe steel surface and the molten zinc, resulting in the formation of Zn/Fe alloy layers bonding the coating to the steel surface.1.2 This specification is intended to be applicable to hardware items that are centrifuged or otherwise handled to remove excessgalvanizing bath metal (free

5、 zinc). Coating thickness grade requirements reflect this.1.3 This specification is applicable to orders in either inch-pound units (as A153) or in SI units (as A153M). Inch-pound unitsand SI units are not necessarily exact equivalents. Within the text of this specification and where appropriate, SI

6、 units are shownin brackets. Each system shall be used independently of the other without combining values in any way. In the case of orders inSI units, all testing and inspection shall be done using the metric equivalent of the test or inspection method as appropriate. In thecase of orders in SI un

7、its, such shall be stated to the galvanizer when the order is placed.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the

23、onform to Specification B6, or Specification B960, or both, and shall be at leastequal to the grade designated as “Prime Western.”4.2.1 If a zinc alloy is used as the primary feed for the galvanizing bath, then the base material used to make that alloy shallconform to Specification B6 or Specificati

24、on B960, or both.4.2.2 The molten metal in the working volume of the galvanizing bath shall contain not less than an average value of 98.0 %zinc by weight mass.NOTE 1The galvanizer may choose to add trace amounts of certain elements (for example, aluminum, nickel, bismuth, or tin) to the zinc bath t

25、o helpin the processing of certain reactive steels or to enhance the cosmetic appearance of the finished product. The elements can be added to the galvanizingbath as a master feed alloy, or they can be added to the bath by the galvanizer as individual feeds.4.3 Minimum Coating Weight Mass or Minimum

26、 Coating ThicknessThe minimum coating weight mass or the minimumcoating thickness shall conform to the requirements prescribed in Table 1 for the material category and thickness of material inwhich the article belongs.4.4 Threaded ArticlesThe zinc coating on threads shall not be subjected to a cutti

27、ng, rolling, or finishing-tool operation, unlessspecifically authorized by the purchaser. In order to meet overtapping allowances, tapping the threads of nuts or tapped holes aftergalvanizing is not prohibited.4.5 Touch-up and RepairBare spots that are found on parts after galvanizing shall be renov

28、ated by use of the methods foundin Practice A780 if the following criteria are met. The bare spots shall have an area totalling not more than 1 % of the surface areato be coated excluding threaded areas of the piece and the bare spots shall not include any threaded areas of the piece.The thicknessof

29、 the repair shall be equal to the surrounding galvanized coating except for repairs made by paints containing zinc dust in whichcase the thickness of the repair shall be 50 % greater than the thickness of the galvanized coating required for the class of material,but shall not be greater than 4.0 mil

30、s 100 m. Repair thickness measurements shall be made in accordance with Practice A780.The galvanizer shall make repairs unless directed by the purchaser to deliver items unrepaired for subsequent renovation by thepurchaser.5. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance5.1 The zinc-coated articles shall be f

31、ree from uncoated areas, blisters, flux deposits, dross inclusions, and other types ofprojections that would interfere with the intended use of the articles, or other defects not consistent with good galvanizing practice.5.2 The zinc coating shall be reasonably smooth and reasonably uniform in thick

32、ness.NOTE 2Smoothness of surface is a relative term. Minor roughness that does not interfere with the intended use of the part, or roughness that is relatedto the as-received (ungalvanized) surface condition of the part, shall not be grounds for rejection.NOTE 3Since this specification is applicable

33、 to items that are centrifuged or otherwise handled to remove excess bath metal (see 1.2), irregular coatingdistribution is not normally encountered. Drainage problems, which manifest themselves as local excess coating thickness that would interfere withfunction or as edge tears or spikes that prese

34、nt a safety hazard because of their sharpness, are grounds for rejection under the terms of 5.1.A153/A153M 1625.3 Embrittlement is a potential condition of steel that is cold-worked, depending on such factors as the steel type (strengthlevel, aging characteristics), thickness, degree of cold work, a

35、nd galvanizing process. The galvanizer, the designer and thefabricator shall take precautions against embrittlement. The precautions to fabricate properly and prepare the material forgalvanizing to prevent embrittlement are described in Practice A143/A143M.NOTE 4Low service temperatures increase the

36、 risk of brittle failure of all plain carbon steels including those which have been galvanized. Thistemperature embrittling effect varies with type of steel. The expected service temperature should thus be taken into account when selecting steels forgalvanizing.5.4 Malleable castings shall be of suc

37、h composition as will preclude the possibility that they become embrittled by thegalvanizing process, or they shall be either cooled from the anneal, or subsequently heat-treated so as to immunize them againstembrittlement.5.5 The zinc coating shall adhere tenaciously to the surface of the base meta

38、l.5.6 If the galvanized material covered by this specification is bent or otherwise fabricated to the degree that causes the zinccoatings to stretch or compress beyond the limit of elasticity, any cracking or flaking of the coating resulting from the bending orfabricating shall not be cause for reje

39、ction.5.7 High strength bolts, typically over 150,000 lb/in.2 ultimate tensile strength, may be subject to hydrogen embrittlement.Practices to safeguard against hydrogen embrittlement are described in Specification A143/A143M.6. Sampling6.1 Test specimens shall be selected at random from each inspec

40、tion lot.6.2 The method of selection and sample size shall be agreed upon between the galvanizer and the purchaser. Otherwise, thesample size selected from each lot shall be as follows:Number of Pieces in Lot Sample Size3 or less all4 to 500 3501 to 1200 51201 to 3200 83201 to 10 000 1310 001 and ov
