1、Designation: A508/A508M 17Standard Specification forQuenched and Tempered Vacuum-Treated Carbon and AlloySteel Forgings for Pressure Vessels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A508/A508M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in

2、the case of revision, the year of last revision. 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 use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1

3、.1 This specification2covers quenched and temperedvacuum-treated carbon and alloy steel forgings for pressurevessels such as those used in reactor systems. Specifically, itcovers forgings for vessel closures, shells, flanges, tube sheets,rings, heads, and similar parts.1.2 All grades are considered

4、weldable under proper condi-tions. Welding technique is of fundamental importance, and itis presupposed that welding procedure and inspection will be inaccordance with approved methods for the grade of materialused.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separa

5、tely as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.4 Unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specifica-tion designa

6、tion, the material shall be furnished to the inch-pound units.NOTE 1Grades 1 and 1A are composed of different chemistries buthave the same mechanical requirements.NOTE 2Designations have been changed as follows:Current FormerlyGrade 1 Class 1Grade 1A Class 1AGrade 2 Class 1 Class 2Grade 2 Class 2 Cl
