1、Designation: A 897/A 897M 06Standard Specification forAustempered Ductile Iron Castings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 897/A 897M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers ductile iron castings that aresubsequently heat treated by an austempering process asdefined in 10.1.1.2 The

3、 application of the austempering heat treatmentextends the range of properties achievable in ductile ironcastings.1.3 No precise quantitative relationship can be stated be-tween the properties of the iron in various locations of the samecasting or between the properties of castings and those of a te

4、stspecimen cast from the same iron (see Appendix X1). How-ever, austempering heat treatment will tend to diminish anydifferences in mechanical properties.1.4 The production of castings, machining (if required), andthe austempering heat treatments may be performed by differ-ent manufacturers, as cove

5、red in Section 15. The purchasershould establish by contract agreement, at the time of ordering,the responsibility of the various parties for meeting thespecification requirements.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are tobe regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI

6、 unitsare shown in brackets . The values stated in each system arenot exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be usedindependently of the other. Combining values from the twosystems may result in nonconformance with the specification.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A 247 Test Meth

46、an alternatelocation of equivalent section or from a second castingprocessed in the same lot.13. Tension Test Specimens13.1 The standard round tension test specimen with a 2-in.50-mm gage length shown in Fig. 5 shall be used, exceptwhen the12-in. 13-mm Y-block coupon is used. In this case,either of

47、the test specimens shown in Fig. 6 shall be satisfac-tory. Tension test specimens shall be machined only fromPositions A (preferred) or B in Fig. 4.

Blanks from which testspecimens are machined shall be cut only from Positions A orBinFig. 4. Test temperature shall be 72 6 7F 22 6 4C.

49、Four specimens shall be tested, with the lowest impact energyvalue discarded and the remaining three values averaged. Theaverage impact energy shall meet the requirement of Table 1.15. Responsibility for Quality and Inspection15.1 At the time of an order, the purchaser should establishan agreement for quality and inspection requirements with themanufacturers. The form of this agreement depends uponwhich of the conditions in 15.2 or 15.3 are determined to exist.15
