SCOPE The materials defined by these specifications are corrosion protective coatings over steel and iron substrates. All consist of electrolytic or non-electrolytic zinc plating with tr

4、ivalent chromium passivate. A2, A3 and A4 are also coated with a clear sealer to increase corrosion resistance and/or to provide consistent torque-tension control. 2. APPLICATION These specifications were released for materials used as corrosion protective coatings for fasteners and other standard p

Parts identified as being at risk for hydrogen embrittlement shall meet the requirements of WSS-M99A3-A. A1: Corrosion resistance for non-threaded fas

6、teners which subsequently receive an adhesive coating, and for non-threaded standard parts with lower corrosion requirements A2: Corrosion resistance plus lubrication for threaded fasteners A3: Corrosion resistance plus lubrication for threaded fasteners with high hardness and the risk of hydrogen e

7、mbrittlement A4: Corrosion resistance plus enhanced lubrication for threaded fasteners such as thread forming screws for metal 2.1 SERVICE APPLICATION 2.1.1 The recommended maximum continuous service temperature is 120C for optimal corrosion performance. 2.1.2 These coatings exhibit electrical conti

8、nuity to the substrate and may be used for electrical grounding fasteners in body-in-white or interior applications. 2.1.3 These coatings are effective for slowing galvanic corrosion associated with the use of steel fasteners in direct contact with aluminum components, or in indirect contact with ma

9、gnesium components. 2.1.4 These coatings are not recommended for high visibility applications, severe abrasion conditions or where chip resistance is required.

This is especially important for parts with hardness greater than HRC 35.

14、 See WSS-M99A3-A. 3.3.3 The sealers used under this specification do not require curing. The sealers shall be dried in place using hot air, typically in a spin dryer. Drying on a conveyer and other drying methods may be appropriate. 3.3.4 The applicator shall follow the material suppliers recommenda

15、tions concerning the drying temperature and spin speeds suitable for the basket diameter being used. 3.3.5 The temperatures associated with de-embrittlement heat treatments can cause degradation of the passivates and sealers. Parts with hardness greater than HRC 35, for example washers, requiring an

16、 electroplated finish should be passivated and sealed after de-embrittlement heat treatment. 3.4 COATING APPEARANCE 3.4.1 The finishes will be smooth, fine grained, adherent, and free from blisters, pits, nodules, indications of burning, and other defects. All details of workmanship shall conform to

17、 the best practice for high quality plating. 3.4.2 Parts coated to A1 will have a silver iridescent color, A2 and A4 will have a silver color, and A3 will have a silver-grey color. 3.4.3 The sealers used for A2, A3 and A4 will be a translucent film free from discontinuities. 3.4.4 The sealers used f

18、or A2, A3 and A4 have a UV light visible tracer.
