35、 during production heattreatment no portion of the furnace shall be below theminimum specified temperature nor above the maximumspecified temperature for the grade being processed.5. Chemical Composition5.1 Chemical AnalysisChemical analysis of materialscovered by this specification shall be in acco

36、rdance with TestMethods A751.5.2 Heat AnalysisAn analysis of each heat shall be madeby the manufacturer to determine the percentages of theelements specified. The analysis shall be made from a testsample preferably taken during the pouring of the heat. Whendrillings are used, they shall be taken not

37、 less than14 in.6.4 mm beneath the surface. The chemical composition thusdetermined shall be reported to the purchaser, or theirrepresentative, and shall conform to the requirements in theindividual specification for the grade being poured.5.3 Product AnalysisA product analysis may be made bythe pur

38、chaser from material representing each heat, lot, orcasting. The analysis shall be made on representative material.Due to the possibility of decarburization, samples for carbonanalysis shall be taken no closer than14 in. 6.4 mm to a castsurface, except that castings too thin for this shall be analyz

39、edon representative material. The chemical composition thusdetermined shall meet the requirements specified in the appli-cable specification for the grade involved, or shall be subject torejection by the purchaser, except that the chemical composi-tion determined for carbon and low-alloy steel and s

40、tainlesssteel castings may vary from the specified limits by theamounts shown in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively. Theproduct analysis tolerances of Tables 1 and 2 are not applicableas acceptance criteria for heat analysis by the casting manu-facturer. When comparing product and heat analysis for o

41、therthan carbon and low-alloy steels and stainless steels, thereproducibility data R2, in Test Methods E353 or E354,asapplicable, shall be taken into consideration.5.4 Unspecified ElementsWhen chemical analysis for el-ements not specified for the grade ordered is desired, Supple-mentary Requirement

42、S1 may be specified.5.5 Grade SubstitutionGrade substitution is not permitted.Grade substitution occurs when the material being suppliedcontains one or more elements that are not specified for thesupplied material such that the material conforms to therequirements of a different grade.5.6 Where more

43、 than one ladle is poured into a singlecasting, the molten metal in each ladle must conform to thespecified chemical requirements.6. Mechanical Test Methods6.1 All mechanical tests shall be conducted in accordancewith Test Methods and Definitions A370. When material isordered to an M-suffix (SI unit

44、s) standard, then in accordancewith Test Methods A1058.6.2 Choice of testing track from the options listed in TestMethods A1058 when material is ordered to an M-suffix (SIunits) product standard, should be identified by the purchaserin the ordering information. If the choice of test track is notspec

45、ified in the order, then the default ASTM track shall beused as noted in Test Methods A1058.7. Tensile Requirements7.1 One tension test shall be made from each heat, and shallconform to the tensile requirements specified. Test couponsshall be cast from the same heat as the castings represented,excep

46、t that for investment castings, the test coupons shall becast in the same type of mold as the castings.66Information on the relationship of mechanical properties determined on testcoupons obtained as specified in 7.1 and 7.4 with those obtained from the castingmay be found in The Steel Castings Hand
