2、sion-resistant black finish for small parts.1.1 Material Description. This finish is a bulk-applied finish for small ferrous parts. It consists ofan electroplated zinc-nickel layer with passivationand topcoat.1.2 Symbols. Not applicable.1.3 Typical Applications. This coating is intendedprimarily for

3、 bulk-processed small steel parts, suchas bolts, screws and nuts used on exterior andinterior visible parts (cosmetic applications). Thefinish is especially suitable for internal drive (crossrecess, hexalobular (six-lobed) socket, etc.)threaded fasteners and other parts with smallrecessed features.1

4、.4 Remarks.1.4.1. Electroplating may not be suitable for allmaterials and applications. Each application mustbe reviewed with the responsible MaterialsEngineer before usage.1.4.2. Use of this coating system on threadedsurfaces and/or bearing surfaces of joints couldaffect the torque-tension relation

5、ship. It isrecommended that a torque-tension study of thefastener joint be performed before releasing thisfinish on any new application.1.4.3. This finish is suitable for temperatures up to120 C. Applications with exposures above thistemperature shall be reviewed with the responsibleMaterials Engine

6、er before usage.1.4.4. High-strength or high-hardness steel partsare susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement. Whilecertain precautions and post-plate de-embrittlement baking are generally effective inprotecting the parts from hydrogen embrittlement,they are time sensitive and require extra careduring

7、processing.Electroplating of steel parts with hardness above46 HRc is not recommended.2 ReferencesNote: Only the latest approved standards areapplicable unless otherwise specified.2.1 External Standards/Specifications.AIAG CQI-11 ISO 2813 ISO 17025AIAG CQI-12 ISO 4892-1 SAE J2527ASTM D523 ISO 4892-2

The fasteners must be plated and coatedin an automated barrel process in a productionenvironment. The panel may be h

14、and-processed.Before electroplating, the gloss level of the steelpanels shall have a maximum gloss level of 150using a 60 gloss meter per ASTM D523 orISO 2813. Coated fasteners and gloss panels shallbe submitted to the responsible Materials Engineerfor evaluation.3.2 Plating and Coating Thickness.3.

15、2.1 The plating layer thickness is defined as themetallic zinc-nickel layer measured after allspecified supplemental treatments are completed.However, the measurement of plating thicknessdoes not include the topcoat. The zinc-nickelplating layer shall contain (12 to 17)% nickel. Theplating layer thi

16、ckness on significant surfaces shallbe a minimum of 10 m.3.2.2 The plating thickness on bolts and screwsshall be measured on the head. For refereepurposes, in cases when it is not possible toaccurately measure the plating thickness on thehead (e.g., the plating is mechanically damaged orit was alrea

17、dy exposed to a corrosion test), the tipof an unexposed thread may be measured andcompared to a reference part plated in the sameprocess. On nuts, the plating thickness shall bemeasured on the spanner flats.3.2.3 For parts other than threaded fasteners, theplating thickness requirement applies to si

18、gnificantsurfaces as specified on engineering drawings. Ifthe significant surfaces are not defined, then allsurfaces are considered significant.3.2.4 For threaded fasteners, the maximum totalthickness of the plating and topcoat is limited bythe basic thread size (tolerance h or H). Afterplating and

19、topcoat, parts must gauge withappropriate basic size GO thread gage. Threadsmay be produced undersize/oversize toaccommodate the coating, provided that thefinished product meets all specified mechanicalproperties. Where mechanical properties are notspecified, undersizing/oversizing is subject toappr

20、oval by the responsible fastening engineer,and all undersize/oversize shall be withinpermissible limits as agreed upon.3.2.5 Recess Fill Test. The total coating systemshall not adversely affect the drive system (internalrecess dimensions, hex size, etc.) or function ofthe fastener.Using a batch (min

21、imum batch size of (ten) 10) ofuncoated hexalobular internal drive pan headscrews (Part Number 11611882 or equivalent),measure the recess penetration depth againstdrawing requirements to ensure conformance.Coat the parts in a production process and lot size.(Coating the test parts with other similar

22、ly sizedparts to reach production lot size is acceptable.)Measure the recess penetration depth aftercoating. All measurements must meet the drawingrequirement after coating. For Part Number11611882, the maximum penetration depth for thedrive recess is 0.5 mm.3.2.6 For parts other than threaded faste

23、ners,there is no limit on maximum total coatingthickness, as long as the finish meets all otherrequirements and does not negatively affect thefunction of the part.3.2.7 Measurement Method. For refereepurposes, the plating thickness shall bedetermined by microscopic examination of crosssections taken

24、 perpendicular to significant surfacesper ISO 1463. For regular production, x-rayfluorescence (XRF) can be used for platingthickness measurement. The measurement shallbe taken after the entire finishing process iscomplete. The measurement method shall havegood accuracy and be robust to the finish ma

25、terial,substrate material, part size and geometry. In caseof dispute, the supplier must be able todemonstrate a maximum deviation of 10%between its test method and the cross-sectioningmeasurement per ISO 1463 when measuring thesame area of the same part.Note: Plating layer thickness measurement shal

Allelectroplated parts with surface or core hardnessgreater than 353 HV (35 HRc) shall be processedper SAE/USCAR-5 and tes

46、ted for de-embrittlementper SAE/USCAR-7. The sample size for theSAE/USCAR-7 test shall be per ASTM F1470.The maximum material hardness in the drawing orrelevant specification shall be used to determine ifde-embrittlement baking is required. For example,a 10.9 grade fastener has a hardness range of(3

47、2 to 39) HRc. Since the maximum hardness isabove 35 HRc, all parts must be de-embrittlementbaked.If a part is heavily cold-worked or heat-treated tohigh-strength/hardness but is without a maximumhardness limit stated in the drawing orspecification, the applicator shall obtain thehardness data from t

48、he customer in order todetermine if de-embrittlement baking is required.Note: Baking is determined by the maximummeasured hardness of the lot, not the average.3.9.1 When a part requires heat-treatment forhydrogen de-embrittlement after electroplating, thepassivation and topcoat shall be applied afte

49、r theheat-treatment operation. To deviate from thisprocess flow, the desired process (example:passivation before bake) must be validated at thetime of applicator/material approval by repeatingNSS testing per 3.4.1 after baking for 8 hours perSAE/USCAR 5. For these parts, the time to the firstappearance of white and red corrosion must notexceed non-baked parts by more than 48 hours.3.10 Friction Control.
