3、deposited nickel-cobalt usedfor electroforming.NOTE 1The nickel-cobalt alloy is principally deposited as a coatingon steel products. It can also be electrodeposited on iron, stainless steel,aluminum, titanium and any other metal substrate.NOTE 2The nickel-cobalt alloy coating has a low coefficient o

4、ffriction of 0.08 that provides a dry lubricant on part surfaces that are incontact with each other and are subject to galling.1.2 This specification incorporates an accelerated exposuretest method to evaluate the effects of corrosion and galling onthe coating, and incorporates a means of reporting

5、the results tothe purchaser.1.3 The specification incorporates a classification schemethat establishes service conditions for thickness, classes ofdeposits based on the level of monitoring, and type based onsupplemental coatings used after deposition.1.4 The coating thickness ranges from 5 to 30 m,

Forqualification test purpos

27、es, if a supplemental coating is not used, that isType 0. Type 1 supplemental coatings are used to lock the threads ormetal-to-metal contact points to increase the amount of energy needed todisassemble the junction. Type 2 supplemental coatings are used to reducethe friction and aid in disassembly.

28、Materials like gold, thallium, andPTFE can be used to provide lubricity and reduce the break torque.4.4.1 Type 0 coatings are not treated with any supplementalcoatings.4.4.2 Type 1 coatings are treated with a material to securethe coating to itself.4.4.3 Type 2 coatings are treated with a material t

Materials and Manufacture7.1 SubstrateDefects in the surface of the basis metal suchas scratches, porosity, pits, inclusions, roll and die marks, laps,cracks, burrs, cold shuts, and roughness may adv

35、ersely affectthe appearance and performance of the deposit, despite theobservance of the best plating practice. Any such defects onsignificant surfaces shall be brought to the attention of thepurchaser before plating. The producer shall not be responsiblefor coatings defects resulting from surface c

36、onditions of themetal, if these conditions have been brought to the attention ofthe purchaser.7.2 The substrate may be subjected to such polishing orbuffing operations as are necessary to yield deposits with thedesired final performance and appearance.7.2.1 PeeningPeening prior to plating may be req

37、uired onhigh-strength steel parts to induce residual compressivestresses in the surface, which can reduce loss of strength andimprove stress corrosion resistance after plating.7.2.2 Steel parts that are designed for unlimited life underdynamic loads shall be shot peened or rotary flap peened.NOTE 5C

38、ontrolled shot peening is the preferred method because thereare geometries where rotary flap peening is not effective.7.2.3 Unless otherwise specified, the shot peening shall beaccomplished on all surfaces for which the coating is requiredand all immediate adjacent surfaces when they contain notches

39、,fillets, or other abrupt changes of section size where stresseswill be concentrated.7.3 RackingParts should be positioned so as to minimizetrapping of hydrogen gas in cavities and holes, allowing freecirculation of solution over all surfaces to obtain uniformcoating thickness. The location of rack

40、or wire marks in thecoating shall be agreed upon between the producer andpurchaser.7.4 Cleaning of Basis MetalProper preparatory proce-dures and thorough cleaning of the basis metal are essential toensure satisfactory adhesion and corrosion resistance perfor-mance of the coating. It is recommended t

41、hat the followingappropriate standards be used: Practices B183, B254, andB320, and Guides B242 and B322.7.5 PretreatmentA suitable method shall activate the sur-face and remove oxide and foreign materials, which may causepoor adhesion and coating porosity.7.6 Pretreatment of Iron or Steel for the Pu

43、 before clean andelectroplate processes. If these heat treatments are not required,the purchaser shall specify in the ordering information SR-0. Ifthe purchaser does not specify an SR-0 exception to heattreatment, then the plater shall use Table 1 in SpecificationB849 to determine the appropriate he

45、reduce the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. If theseheat treatments are not required, the purchaser shall specify inthe ordering information ER-0. If the purchaser does notspecify an ER-0 exception to heat treatment, then the producershall use Guide B850 to determine the appropriate heattreatment for

46、 the steel based on its tensile strength.8.
