Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers

3、the selection of steel bars accordingto section and to the mechanical properties desired in the partto be produced. This is not a specification for the procurementof steel. Applicable procurement specifications are listed inSection 5.1.2 Several steel compositions intended for various sectionsand me

4、chanical property requirements are presented in Tables1-6. The criteria for placing a steel composition in one of thethree general class designations, Classes P, Q, and R (describedin Section 4) are as follows:1.2.1 Classes P and Q should be capable of developing themechanical properties shown in Ta

A hardness indicated by tests made ata location shown in Fig. 1, A, B, or C, is taken as evidence thata composition is capable of meeting other equivalent mechani-cal properties shown in the

6、 tables. Normal good shop practicesare assumed, with control of austenitizing and temperingtemperatures, and mild agitation of the part in the quenchingbath.1.2.2 Class R should be capable of developing the me-chanical properties shown in Tables 5 and 6 as hot rolled, bycold drawing, or by cold draw

7、ing with additional thermaltreatment. The locations for obtaining tension tests are de-scribed in 6.2.1.3 It is not implied that the compositions listed in the tablesare the only ones satisfactory for a certain class and mechanicalproperty requirement.
