1、Designation: A540/A540M 15Standard Specification forAlloy-Steel Bolting for Special Applications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A540/A540M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revis

2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers regular and special-qualityalloy steel bolting materials and bolting components that maybe used for n

3、uclear and other special applications. See Speci-fication A962/A962M for the definition of bolting.1.2 The following referenced common requirements areindispensable for application of this specification: SpecificationA962/A962M.1.3 Supplementary requirements of an optional nature areprovided for use

4、 at the option of the purchaser. These supple-mentary requirements only apply when specified individuallyby the purchaser in the purchase order or contract.1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand in SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applica

5、ble “M” specification designation (SIunits), inch-pound units shall apply.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore

6、, each systemshall be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in non-conformance with thestandard.2.

Ordering Information3.1 The inquiry and orders for bolting material and boltingcomponents under this specification shall include thefollowing, as required, to describe the desired items ad-equately:3.1.1 Grade and Class3.1.

8、2 Condition (Section 5),3.1.3 Heat treatment (Section 6),3.1.4 Supplementary Requirements (S1 to S9),3.1.5 Reports required (Section 16),3.1.6 End use, and3.1.7 Any special requirements.3.2 The purchaser is referred to the listed supplementaryrequirements.4. Common Requirements4.1 Bolting materials

9、and bolting components supplied tothis specification shall conform to the requirements of Speci-fication A962/A962M. These requirements include testmethods, finish, thread dimensions, macro etch, marking,certification, optional supplementary requirements, and others.Failure to comply with the requir

10、ements of SpecificationA962/A962M constitutes nonconformance with this specifica-tion. In case of conflict between this specification and Speci-fication A962/A962M, this specification shall prevail.5. Manufacture5.1 Bolting material shall be supplied hot-rolled or hot-forged or cold-finished at the

11、option of the producer. However,if desired by the purchaser, cold finishing may be specified.6. Heat Treatment6.1 Bolting material ordered in the annealed condition shallhave a structure suitable for machining. Such annealed materialis not intended to be used without subsequent quenching andtemperin
