The content of this Standard Practice is the resulting efforts of competent and e

3、xperienced volunteers to provide an effective, clear, and non-exclusive standard that will benefit the industry as a whole. This MSS Standard Practice describes minimal requirements and is intended as a basis for common practice by the manufacturer, the user, and the general public. The existence of

4、 an MSS Standard Practice does not in itself preclude the manufacture, sale, or use of products not conforming to the Standard Practice. Mandatory conformance to this Standard Practice is established only by reference in other documents such as a code, specification, sales contract, or public law, a

5、s applicable. MSS has no power, nor does it undertake, to enforce or certify compliance with this document. Any certification or other statement of compliance with the requirements of this Standard Practice shall not be attributable to MSS and is solely the responsibility of the certifier or maker o

This Standard Practice

7、 shall remain silent on the validity of those other standards of prior or subsequent dates of issue even though applicable provisions may not have changed.” By publication of this Standard Practice, no position is taken with respect to the validity of any potential claim(s) or of any patent rights i

8、n connection therewith. MSS shall not be held responsible for identifying any patent rights. Users are expressly advised that determination of patent rights and the risk of infringement of such rights are entirely their responsibility.

14、Printed in U.S.A. MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-112ii FOREWORD One of the MSS Cast Surface Comparators, as described in Section 4 and Figure 1, is included with the purchase of the printed version of this Standard Practice because it is a necessary and normative part of the Standard Practice. However, th

15、e Comparator is a “necessary and normative” part of the Standard Practice whether purchased in printed form or electronically. Those purchasing this Standard Practice, in electronic format, may submit a receipt to MSS within 30 days of payment and receive a Comparator at no charge. Additional MSS Ca

18、evaluation of cast surface finishes. b) To make available a Cast Surface Comparator with MSS surface rating numbers 1 through 10, to be used to monitor surface finish by a visual and tactile method. c) To provide guidance on surface finish by “sight and feel“ to minimize misunderstandings which may

19、occur between purchaser and manufacturer. 1. SCOPE 1.1 This surface quality Standard Practice provides criteria for the visual and tactile evaluation of cleaned AS-CAST surface finishes of components manufactured from castings. 1.2 This Standard Practice and its supporting MSS Cast Surface Comparato

20、r may be applied to surfaces formed by any casting method. 1.3 This Standard Practice provides visual and tactile criteria for evaluating casting surface finish and texture, which can be used to develop an acceptable quality level. 1.4 Cast surfaces on materials such as gray iron, ductile iron, bron

21、ze, and malleable iron may be compared with the use of this Standard Practice; however, it is not the intention of this Standard Practice to limit comparisons to only these types of materials. 1.5 This Standard Practice does not apply to machined surfaces or those surfaces that are intended to be ma

22、chined. 1.6 This Standard Practice is limited to “sight and feel“ by comparison without measurement. Luster and color are not part of this Standard Practice. 1.7 This Standard Practice is not intended for use on those castings where burn-in, slag, scabs, etc. so distort the surface that the comparat

23、or cannot be used and the casting may be rejected for other causes. 2. DEFINITIONS 2.1 Refer to ASME B46.1, “Surface Texture (Surface Roughness, Waviness, and Lay)”. 3. CAST SURFACE FINISH 3.1 General There are many methods of measuring cast surface finishes to establish a criteria for quality accep

24、tance limits. These are primarily by measurement or pictures. See the references listed in Annex A of this Standard Practice for other inspection methods; including ASTM A802, MSS SP-53, MSS SP-55, and MSS SP-93. 3.2 Cast surface finishes involve texture, roughness, waviness, lay, and flaws. For def

25、initions and other actual measurement methods for various surface irregularities refer to ASME B46.1 or any of the other referenced standards. 3.3 The casting method and material used will influence the surface roughness. Consideration must be given to the actual acceptable surface finish and its fi

26、nal function. A mutual agreement should be made between purchaser and manufacturer. MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-1122 3.4 The degree of roughness forms the criteria of this Standard Practice. Through the use of the MSS Cast Surface Comparator and its 10 three-dimensional tactile surface representations,

27、 an acceptable cast surface finish can be evaluated and agreed upon by purchaser and manufacturer. 4. MSS CAST SURFACE COMPARATOR 4.1 The MSS Cast Surface Comparator is a standardized, economical, durable, and convenient “pocket size“ evaluation tool for the inspection and quality acceptance of cast

28、 surface finishes. 4.2 The MSS Cast Surface Comparator was designed and manufactured using actual representative samples of cast surfaces. Numbers were then assigned to establish the degree of roughness. 4.3 Neither optical magnifiers nor measuring instruments are required to perform the surface ins

29、pection. It is a visual and tactile method. If magnifiers or measuring instruments are used, these shall not determine acceptance or rejection. 4.4 The MSS Cast Surface Comparator is a molded-plastic three-dimensional tactile representation of AS-CAST surface finishes, with numbers ranging from 1 th

30、rough 10, representing smooth-to-rough. The surface texture roughness of a surface which needs to be qualified is rated by means of comparison to the MSS Cast Surface Comparator. Visual and tactile comparisons can be made by using this Surface Comparator and its 10 tactile finish rating swaths. See

31、Figure 1 for an illustration of the actual plastic MSS Cast Surface Comparator. 4.5 Casting surface roughness acceptance levels can be established through the use of the MSS rating numbers 1 through 10, regardless of casting method and/or material. A comparison can be designated by an acceptable MSS

32、 number and/or range between numbers. The lower the MSS number, the smoother is the surface finish. 5. PROCEDURE 5.1 General The quality acceptance level should be established by prior agreement of the purchaser and manufacturer and be based on the intended use and function of the casting. Requireme

33、nts for some areas of the castings may be for cosmetic appearance, rather than function. The MSS number selected can either be a maximum or a minimum. The cast surface finish required can also be designated as between two MSS rating numbers. It may be desirable to establish different MSS numbers for

34、 different areas of a casting. This is based on whether the entire casting should have the same general surface smoothness requirement or if certain areas are more or less critical than others. 5.2 Cleanliness The cast surface to be inspected should be clean and free of dirt, oil, loose sand, or oth

35、er foreign material that would impair an accurate determination of the surface finish. 5.3 Surface Evaluation Place the MSS Cast Surface Comparator (see Section 4) near the surface to be inspected. By “sight and feel”, compare the casting surface to the comparator surface, utilizing the quality acce

36、ptance level established in Section 5.1. Luster and color should not be a consideration; only roughness. 6. ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION Based on the surface evaluation in Section 5 and an agreed upon surface roughness level, the cast part shall be accepted or rejected. MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-1123 SMOO
