1、Designation: B663/B663M 16Standard Specification forSilver-Tungsten Carbide Electrical Contact Material1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B663/B663M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of las

2、t revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers electrica

3、l contact componentsmade from silver-tungsten carbide materials by powder metal-lurgical processes.1.2 This specification covers compositions within the silver-tungsten carbide system normally specified by users of con-tacts.NOTE 1Table X1.1 and Table X1.2 in Appendix X1 provide a list oftypical com

4、positions used for various applications.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-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 sy

5、stems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateSafety D

Significance and Use3.1 Proprietary methods for the manufacture of these mate-rials vary significantly among suppliers, and these methodsinfluence such properties as arc erosion, contact resistance, andt

8、he tendency to weld in service. Since the performance ofcontacts in a device depends on numerous factors outside thecontact itself (opening speed, closing speed, contact pressure,contact bounce, environmental variations, assembly techniqueand variations, etc.), this specification cannot ensure perfo

9、r-mance control in the application.As part of the qualification oninitial samples, it is recommended that the user functionallyand electrically test the materials for all devices applicable tothe materials use. This specification will provide a means forthe contact manufacturer and contact user to r

10、each agreementon the details of the material to be supplied for a specific use,and reasonable assurance that future lots will be similar inproperties and microstructure to the initial test or samplecontacts supplied.4. Ordering Information4.1 Orders for this material under this specification shallin

11、clude the following information:4.1.1 Dimensions (see Section 10),4.1.2 Chemical composition (see Table X1.1 and Table X1.2in Appendix X1 as a guideline),4.1.3 Physical properties (see Section 6 and Appendix X1 asa guideline),4.1.4 Certification (see Section 13), and4.1.5 Other features as agreed up

12、on between the manufac-turer and purchaser.5. Chemical Composition5.1 The material shall conform to composition limits asagreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser.5.2 The chemical analysis shall be made in accordance withthe methods prescribed in the newest edition of Volume 01.02of the

13、 Annual Book of ASTM Standards or by any otherapproved method agreed upon between the manufacturer andthe purchaser.6. Physical Properties6.1 The manufacturer and the purchaser shall agree onqualification tests for determination of physical properties.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of

United States16.2 The tests shall be performed on production parts,wherever practical or applicable. (Small size contacts do notlend themselves to

17、accurate conductivity measurement.)6.3 The tests shall be determined after consideration of thefunction of the part.6.4 The typical properties of three most common types ofsilver-tungsten carbide contacts are given in Appendix X1.7. Dimensions, Mass, and Permissible Variations7.1 Permissible variati

18、ons in dimensions shall be within thelimits specified on drawings describing the contacts andaccompanying the order, or shall be within the limits specifiedin the purchase order.8. Finishing of Contacts8.1 The material shall be finished by such operations asnecessary to meet requirements agreed upon

19、 between themanufacturer and the purchaser of the contacts (braze alloybacking, tumbling to polish surfaces, special surface finish,silver-rich surface layer, cleaning, etc.).9. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 The parts shall be free of defects in material orprocessing, that would seriously a

20、ffect their performance.10. Sampling10.1 LotUnless otherwise specified, a lot shall consist ofparts of the same form and dimensions, made of powders of thesame particle size range and composition, processed under thesame conditions, and submitted for inspection at the same time.10.2 Chemical Analysi

21、s10.2.1 At least one sample for chemical analysis shall betaken from each lot. A representative sample of chips may beobtained by milling, drilling, or crushing at least two pieceswith dry tools, without lubrication. In order to obtain oil freechips, the parts selected for test shall have the oil ex

22、tracted inaccordance with Test Method B328, if necessary.10.2.2 These specification limits do not preclude the pos-sible presence of other unnamed elements, impurities, oradditives. Analysis shall be regularly made only for the minorelements listed in the table. However, if a user knows ofelements t

23、hat might be detrimental to their application or hasother reasons for requiring analysis for specific elements, thenagreement between manufacturer and purchaser for both limitsand methods of analysis should be required for elements notspecified.10.3 Physical TestsThe manufacturer and the purchasersh

24、all agree on a representative number of specimens forphysical tests including microstructure.11. Inspection11.1 Unless otherwise specified, inspection of parts suppliedon contract shall be made by the purchaser.12.
