Significance and Use4.1 These test methods are used to measure the dimensions of the rod or tube to determine conformance with specifications onfull lengths or cut lengths. The measurements can also be used for manufacturing control, determination of uniformit

Conditioning5.1 Condition specimens prior to testing for at least 48 h at 23 6 1 C and 50 6 2 % relative humidity. Perform tests in aircontrolled at that temperature and humidity.6. Method of Measurement6.1 Make

8、 all diameter and wall thickness measurements for specimens with dimensions 300 mm (12 in.) and under inaccordance with the procedure described in Test Methods D374 as applicable. Close the micrometer or vernier caliper slowly onthe specimen until contact is made without appreciable distortion of th

27、Document Summary page on the ASTM website.D668 12213.3 ProcedureMeasure the wall thickness to the nearest 0.02 mm or 0.001 in. For tubes 8 mm (516 in.) and over in insidediameter, take four measurements at points 90 apart around the circumference at each end of the specimen. For tubes under 8 mm(516

28、 in.) in inside diameter, measure the wall thickness by placing the specimen over a mandrel of slightly smaller diameter whichis fixed in position at right angles relative to the spindle of the dial micrometer. Note a zero setting with the spindle against thepin. Then place the specimen over the pin

29、 and take readings at various points around the circumference of the specimen. Take atleast four readings.13.4 ReportReport the average of the measurements taken as the wall thickness of the tube.14. Variation in Wall Thickness of Tubes14.1 Apparatussee 13.1.14.2 Test SpecimensSpecimens shall consis

For tubes 8 mm (516 in.) and over in insidediameter, make a series of measurements around each end of the specimen. For tubes under 8 mm (516 in.) in inside diameter,measure the variatio

31、n in wall thickness by rotating the specimen around the mandrel and following the general procedure inaccordance with 13.3 for tubes of this size.14.4 ReportReport the difference between the maximum and minimum values as the variation in wall thickness. Also, reportall measurements taken.15. Warp15.

32、1 ApparatusA horizontal flat surface and a rigid bar with plane surface firmly fixed at right angles to the flat surface, bothbeing at least as long as the specimen. The height of the bar shall exceed half the diameter of the tube. Feeler gages of suitablethicknesses will also be required.15.2 Test

33、SpecimensSpecimens shall consist of rods or tubes of any length or diameter.15.3 ProcedurePlace the specimen in the fixture. With the aid of feeler gages, measure the maximum distance between therod or tube and the plane surface, rotating the specimen as necessary to locate the maximum. Measure to t

34、he nearest 0.02 mm or0.001 in.15.4 ReportReport warp or lack of straightness as the maximum distance measured in accordance with 15.3.15.5 CalculationCalculate the percentage warp based on a 1-m or 36-in. length as follows:Wm 51D/L 2!3100 or W36536D/L 2!3100 (2)where:Wm = percentage warp calculated

36、e actual deviation for any length with the permissible deviation for that length, use one of thefollowing equations may be used: equations:Dxm/Dm 5Lxm 2/1! 2 or Dx/D365Lx 2/36! 2 (3)where:Dxm = permissible deviation from the straight edge for the given length, m,Dm = permissible deviation for a 1-m

Precision and Bias16.1 These tests have been in use for many years, but no information has been presented to ASTM upon which to base astatement of precision. No activity has been planned to develop such information.16.2 These test methods have n
