Scope*1.1 This specification covers the general requirements forhot-rolled, heavy-thickness sheet and strip in coils.1.2 It applies to Specification A 1018/A 1018M.1.3 This material is available only in coils

The purchaser is advised to discuss this change withthe supplier.1.4 In case of any conf

6、lict in requirements, the requirementsof the individual material specification shall prevail over thoseof this general specification.1.5 Annex A1 lists permissible variations in dimensions andmass (see Note 2) in SI metric units. The values listed are notexact conversions of the values listed in the

7、 inch-pound tables,but instead are rounded or rationalized values. Conformance toAnnex A1 is mandatory when the “M” specification is used.NOTE 2The term weight is used when inch-pound units are thestandard. However, under SI, the preferred term is mass.1.6 The values stated in either SI units or inc

8、h-pound unitsare to be regarded separately 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.1.7 This specification and the app

9、licable material specifica-tions are expressed in both inch-pound units and SI units.However, unless the order specifies the applicable “M” speci-fication designation (SI units), the material shall be furnishedto inch-pound units.2.

30、el shall be in the hot-rolled condition.6. Chemical Composition6.1 Cast or Heat (Formerly Ladle) AnalysisAn analysisof each heat or cast shall be made by the steel manufacturer todetermine the conformance with the appropriate requirement.The analysis shall be from a test sample preferably takendurin

32、ion Analysis:6.2.1 Non-killed steels such as capped or rimmed steels arenot technologically suited to product analysis due to thenonuniform character of their chemical composition, andtherefore, the tolerances in Table 1 do not apply. Productanalysis is appropriate on these types of steel only whenm

33、isapplication is apparent, or for copper when copper steel isspecified.6.2.2 For steels other than non-killed (capped or rimmed),product analysis may be made by the purchaser. The chemicalanalysis shall not vary from the limits specified by more thanthe amounts in Table 1. The several determinations

34、 of anyelement in a cast shall not vary both above and below thespecified range.6.2.3 Sampling for Product Analysis:6.2.3.1 To indicate adequately the representative composi-tion of a cast by product analysis, it is general practice to selectsamples to represent the steel, as fairly as possible, fro

35、m aA 635/A 635M 082minimum number of pieces as follows: three pieces for lots upto 15 tons included, and six pieces for lots over 15 tons.6.2.3.2 When the steel is subject to tension test require-ments, samples for product analysis may be taken either bydrilling entirely through the used tension tes

36、t specimensthemselves, or as covered in 6.2.3.3.6.2.3.3 When the steel is not subject to tension test require-ments, the samples for analysis must be taken by milling ordrilling entirely through the sheet in a sufficient number ofplaces so that the samples are representative of the entire sheetor st

37、rip. The sampling may be facilitated by folding the sheetboth ways, so that several samples may be taken at one drilling.Steel subjected to certain heating operations by the purchasermay not give chemical analysis results that properly representits original composition. Therefore, users must analyze

38、 chipstaken from the steel in the condition in which it is receivedfrom the steel manufacturer.6.3 Specimen PreparationDrillings or chips must betaken without the application of water, oil, or other lubricant,and must be free of scale, grease, dirt, or other foreignsubstances. They must not be overh

39、eated during cutting to theextent of causing decarburization. Chips must be well mixedand those too coarse to pass a No. 10 sieve or too fine to remainon a No. 30 sieve are not suitable for proper analysis.

40、analysis is required andagreed upon to resolve a dispute concerning the results of achemical analysis, the procedure for performing the refereeanalysis must be in accordance with the latest issue of TestMethods, Practices, and Terminology A 751, unless otherwiseagreed upon between the manufacturer a

Mechanical Properties7.1 The mechanical property requirements, number ofspecimens, and test locations and specimen orientation shall bein accordance with the applicable product specification.7.2 Unless otherwise specified in the applicable productspecification, test specimens mus
