15、 C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States13.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 capable ofthe term capable of as used in thisspecification means that the test need not be performed by theproducer of the material. However, should testing by thepurchaser establish that

16、the material does not meet theserequirements, the material shall be subject to rejection.4. Ordering Information4.1 Orders for material to this specification shall include thefollowing information:4.1.1 This specification designation (which includes thenumber, the year, and the revision letter, if a

17、pplicable),4.1.2 Quantity in pieces or pounds,4.1.3 Temper (8.1),4.1.4 Edge contour (Section 12),4.1.5 Diameter for rounds; distance across flats for square-cornered squares, hexagons, or octagons; width and depth forsquare-cornered rectangles,4.1.6 Length (specific or stock) (Section 14),4.2 Additi

18、onally, orders for material to this specificationshall include the following information when required by thepurchaser:4.2.1 Whether inspection or witness of inspection and testsby the purchasers representative is required prior to materialshipment (16.1),4.2.2 Whether marking for identification is

19、required (18.1),4.2.3 Whether Practices B660 applies and, if so, the levelsof preservation, packaging, and packing required (19.3), and4.2.4 Whether certification of the material by the producer isrequired (Section 20).5. Manufacture5.1 The products covered by this specification shall beproduced by

20、extruding or rolling, at the option of the producer,provided that the production method results in material thatmeets all requirements of this specification.5.2 Bars in the H12 temper shall be furnished with a rolledmill finish; bars in the H111 temper, with an as-extruded millfinish; and bars in th

21、e H112 temper, with a rolled mill finishexcept that the edges shall be as sawed.6. Responsibility for Quality Assurance6.1 Responsibility for Inspection and TestsUnless other-wise specified in the contract or purchase order, the producer isresponsible for the performance of all inspection and testre

22、quirements specified herein. Except as otherwise specified inthe contract or order, the producer may use his own or anyother suitable facilities for the performance of the inspectionand test requirements specified herein, unless disapproved bythe purchaser. The purchaser shall have the right to perf

23、ormany of the inspections and tests set forth in this specificationwhere such inspections are deemed necessary to assure thatmaterial conforms to prescribed requirements.6.2 Lot DefinitionAn inspection lot shall consist of anidentifiable quantity of material of the same aluminumdesignation, temper,

24、and thickness subjected to inspection atone time.7. Chemical Composition Requirements7.1 The material shall conform to the composition in Table2. Conformance shall be determined by the producer byanalyzing samples taken at the time the ingots or continuouslycast bars are poured, or samples taken fro

25、m the finished orsemifinished product. If the producer has determined thecomposition of the material during the course of manufacture,he shall not be required to sample and analyze the finishedproduct.NOTE 3It is standard practice in the United States aluminum industryto determine conformance to the

26、 composition limits prior to furtherprocessing of ingots into wrought products. Due to the continuous natureof the process, it is not practical to keep a specific ingot analysis identifiedwith a specific quantity of finished material.7.2 Number of SamplesThe number of samples taken fordetermination

27、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 source of moltenmetal.7.2.2 When samples are taken from the finished or semifin-ished product, a s
