Manufacture5.1 Th

34、e tube shall be produced by drawing an extruded tubemade from hollow extrusion ingot (cast in hollow form orpierced) and extruded by use of the die and mandrel method.6. Responsibility for Quality Assurance6.1 Responsibility for Inspection and TestsUnless other-wise specified in the contract or purc

35、hase order, the producer isresponsible for the performance of all inspection and testrequirements specified herein. The producer may use his ownor any other suitable facilities for the performance of theinspection and test requirements specified herein, unless dis-approved by the purchaser in the or

36、der or at the time of contractsigning. The purchaser shall have the right to perform any ofthe inspections and tests set forth in this specification wheresuch inspections are deemed necessary to assure that materialconforms to prescribed requirements.6.2 Lot DefinitionAn inspection lot shall be defi

37、ned asfollows:6.2.1 For heat-treated tempers, an inspection lot shall con-sist of an identifiable quantity of material of the same millform, alloy, temper, and thickness traceable to a heat-treat lotor lots, and subjected to inspection at one time.6.2.2 For nonheat-treated tempers, an inspection lot

38、 shallconsist of an identifiable quantity of material of the same millform, alloy, temper, and thickness subjected to inspection atone time.7. Chemical Composition7.1 LimitsThe tube shall conform to the chemical com-position limits in Table 1. Conformance shall be determined bythe producer by analyz

39、ing samples taken at the time the ingotsare poured, or samples taken from the finished or semi-finishedproduct. If the producer has determined the chemical compo-sition of the material during the course of manufacture, he shallnot be required to sample and analyze the finished product.NOTE 3It is st

40、andard practice in the United States aluminum industryto determine conformance to the chemical composition limits prior tofurther processing of ingots into wrought products. Due to the continuousnature of the process, it is not practical to keep a specific ingot analysisidentified with a specific qu

41、antity of finished material.7.2 Number of SamplesThe number of samples taken fordetermination of chemical composition shall be as follows:7.2.1 When samples are taken at the time the ingots arepoured, at least one sample shall be taken for each group ofingots poured simultaneously from the same sour

42、ce of moltenmetal.7.2.2 When samples are taken from the finished or semi-finished product, a sample shall be taken to represent each4000 lb, or fraction thereof, of material in the lot, except thatnot more than one sample shall be required per piece.7.3 Methods of SamplingSamples for determination o

43、fchemical composition shall be taken in accordance with one ofthe following methods:7.3.1 Samples of chemical analysis shall be taken by drill-ing, sawing, milling, turning, clipping, and so forth, a repre-sentative piece or pieces to obtain a prepared sample of not lessthan 75 g. Sampling shall be

44、in accordance with Practice E55.7.3.2 Sampling for spectrochemical analysis shall be inaccordance with Practices E 716. Samples for other methods ofanalysis shall be suitable for the form of material beinganalyzed and the type of analytical method used.NOTE 4It is difficult to obtain a reliable anal

45、ysis of each of thecomponents of clad materials using material in its finished state. Areasonably accurate determination of the core composition can be made ifthe cladding is substantially removed prior to analysis. The claddingcomposition is more difficult to determine because of the relatively thi

46、nlayer and because of diffusion of core elements to the cladding. Thecorrectness of cladding alloy used can usually be verified by a combina-tion of metallographic examination and spectrochemical analysis of thesurface at several widely separated points.7.4 Methods of AnalysisThe determination of ch

47、emicalcomposition shall be made in accordance with suitable chemi-cal (Test Methods E34), or spectrochemical, (Test MethodsE 607 and E 1251) methods. Other methods may be used onlywhen no published ASTM method is available. In case ofdispute, the methods of analysis shall be agreed upon betweenthe p

48、roducer and purchaser.8. Tensile Properties of Material as Supplied8.1 LimitsThe tube shall conform to the tensile propertyrequirements in Table 2.8.2 Number of Specimens:8.2.1 For material having a nominal weight of less than 1lb/linear ft, one tension test specimen shall be taken for each1000 lb,

49、or fraction thereof, in the lot.B2340438.2.2 For material having a nominal weight of 1 lb ormore/linear ft one tension test specimen shall be taken for each1000 ft, or fraction thereof, in the lot.8.2.3 Other procedures for selecting samples may be em-ployed if agreed upon by the producer and the purchaser.8.3 Test MethodsThe tension tests shall be made inaccordance with Test Methods B 557.9.
