For bars specified in the quenched ‘and tempered condition, when heat treated in batch-type famaces, a lot shall consist of all bars from the same heat, of the same prior condition, the same size, and subjected to the same heat teatment in one tempering charge. For bars specified in the quenched and tempered condition, when heat treated without interruption in a continuons-type furnace, a lot shall consist of all bars from the same heat, of the same prior condition, of the same size, and subjected to the same heat treatment, 4, Chemical Composition 4A Limits: 4.1.1 The chemical composition shall conform to the requirements specified in the purchase order or the individual product specifications. For convenience the grades commonly specified for carbon steel bars are shown in Tables 1 and 2, Bars may be ordered to these grade designations and when so ordered shall conform to the specified limits by heat analysis, 4.1.2. When compositions other than those shown in Tables 1 and 2 are required, the composition limits shall be prepared using the ranges and limits shown in ‘Table 3 for carbon steel and Table 4 for alloy steel.PART A —FERROUS MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS, 4.2. Heat or Cast Analysis: 4.2.1. The chemical composition of each heat or cast shall be determined by the manufacturer in accor- dance with Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology ATS 42.2 The heat or cast analysis shall conform to the requirements specified in the product specification or purchase order. These can be the heat chemical range and limit for a grade designated in Tables 1 and 2, or another range and limit in accordance with 4.1.2, or with requirements of the product specification, NOTE I — Heat analysis for lad isnot determinable since Tea is auded wo the ladle steam while each ingot is poured. When specified san added elemento standand steel, theperentage of la is reported 2350.15 to 0.35 incl, which is the range commonly specified for this element 4.2.3 If requested or required, the heat analysis shall be reported to the purchaser or his representative, 4.2.4 Reporting of significant figures and rounding shall be in accordance with Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology A751. 43 Product Analysis: 43.1 Merchant quality carbon bar stel is not sub- jeotto ejection for product analysis unless misapplication of a heat is clearly indicated, 43.22 Analyses may be made by the purchaser from finished bars other than merchant quality representing each heat of open-hearth, basic-oxygen, or electric-fur- nace steel, The chemical composition thus determined shall not vary from the limits specified in the applicable specification by more than the amounts prescribed in Table 5 and Table 6, but the several determinations of any element, excluding lead, in a heat may not vary both above and below the specified range. Rimmed or capped. sleel is characterized by a lack of homogeneity in its, composition, especially for the elements carbon, phos- phorus, and sulfur; therefore, when rimmed or capped steel is specified or required, the limitations for these clements shall not be applicable, Because of the degree to which phosphorus and sulfur segregate, the limitations for these elements shall not be applicable to rephospho- rized or resulfurized steels. 4.33. Samples for product analysis shall be taken by one of the following methods 433.1 Applicable to small sections whose cross- sectional arca does not exceed 0.75 in.? [500 mm”] such as rounds, squares, hexagons, etc. Chips are taken by rilling or machining the full cross section of the piece. Drilling is not a feasible method for sampling sizes 0.75, in? 2 and smaller 129 SA-29/SA-29M 433.2 Applicable to products where the width of the cross section greatly exceeds the thickness, such as bar size shapes and light flat bars. Chips are taken by drilling entirely through the steel at a point midway between the edge and the middle of the section, or by milling or machining the entire cross section. 43.3.3. Applicable to large rounds, squares semi- finished, etc, Chips are taken at any point midway between the outside and the center ofthe piece by drilling parallel to the axis or by milling or machining the full cross section. In cases where these methods are not practi- cable, the piece may be drilled on the side, but chips are ‘not taken until they represent the portion midway between the outside and the center. 43.34 When the steel is subject to tension test requirements, the tension test specimen can also be used for product analysis. In that case, chips for product analy- sis can be taken by drilling entirely through the tension test specimens or by the method described in 4.3.3.1 4.3.4. When chips are taken by drilling, the diameter of the drill used shall conform to the following, Area of Sample ‘Cross Section, “Approximate Drill in? (en?) Diameter in. (x) 16 {300} oF less 4025) ‘Over 16 {100} 1 p50) 4.3.5. The minimum number of samples to be taken from material representing the same heat or lot before rejection by the purchaser shall be as follows: Minimam Number of Samples 15 tons (15 Mg) and under 4 (Over 15 tons (15 Ma] 6 4.3.6. In case the number of pieces in a heat is less than the number of samples required, one sample from cach piece shall be considered sufficient. 4.3.7 In the event that product analysis determina tions are outside the permissible limits as prescribed in 4.3.2, additional samples shall be analyzed and the accept- ability of the heat negotiated between the purchaser and the producer. 44 Referee Analysis — In case a referee analysis is requited and agreed upon to resolve a dispute concerning the results of a chemical analysis, the referee analysis shall be performed in accordance with the latest issue of ‘Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology A 751, unless otherwise agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser.SA-29/88.29M 5. Grain Size Requirement SL Austenitic Grain Size Sl1 When a coarse austenitic grain size is speci- fied, the steel shall have a grain size number of 1 to 5 exclusive as determined in accordance with Test Methods E112. Conformance to this grain size of 70% of the grains in the area examined shall constitute the basis of acceptance. One test per heat shall be made. 5.1.2. When a fine austenitic grain size is specified, the steel shall have a grain size number of 5 or higher as determined in accordance with Test Methods E 112, Conformance to this grain size of 70% of the area exam- {ned shall constitute the basis of acceptance. One test per heat shall be made unless the provisions of 5.1.2.1 or 5.1.2.2 are exercised. 5.1.2.1 When aluminum is used as the grain refining element, the fine austenitic grain size requirement shall be deemed to be fulfilled if, on heat analysis, the aluminum content is not less than 0.020% total aluminum or, alternately, 0.015% acid soluble aluminum, The ala- ‘minum content shall be reported. The grain size test speci- fied in 5.1.2 shall be the referee test. 5.1.2.2 By agreement between purchaser and supplier, columbium or vanadium or both may be used for grain refining instead of or with aluminum. When columbium or vanadium is used as a grain refining ele- ‘ment, the fine austenitic grain size requirement shall be deemed to be falfilled if, on heat analysis, the columbium or vanadium content is as follows (the content of the elements shall be reported with the heat analysis): Steels having 0.25% carbon or tes cb 0.025 min v 0.05 min Steels having over 0.25% carbo: ch 015 min v (0. min ‘The maximum contents shall be: cb ‘0.05 max v 0.08 mex csv 0.06 max $.1.2.3 When provisions of 5.1.2.1 or 5.1.2.2 are exercised, a grain size testis not required unless specified by the purchaser. Unless otherwise specified, fine austen- itic grain size shall be certified using the analysis of grain refining element(s). 5.1.2.4 Referee Test —In the event that the chemical analysis of columbium or vanadium does not meet the requirements of 5.1.2.2, the grain size test shown in 5.1.2 shall be the referee test unless an alternative test method is agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser. 2004 SECTION IL Mechanical Property Requirements GA Test Specimens: 6.14 Selection — Test specimens shall be selected in accordance with the requirements of the applicable product specification or in accordance with Supplement J of the latest issue of Test Methods and Definitions A370, in the sequence named. 6.12 Preparation — Unless otherwise specified in the applicable product specification, test specimens shall be prepared in accordance with the latest issue of Test ‘Methods and Definitions A 370, and especially Supple- rment I thereof 6.2 Methods of Mechanical Testing — All mechanical tests shall be conducted in accordance with the latest issue of Test Methods and Definitions A 370, and especially Supplement I thereof, on steel bar products. 63 Retests: 63.1 TFany test specimen shows defective machin- ing or develops flaws, the specimen may be discarded and another substituted. 6.3.2 If the percentage elongation of any tension specimen is less than that specified and any part of the fracture is more than % in. [20 mm] from the center of 2 in. (50 mm] specimen, or is outside the middle half of the gage length of an 8 in, [200 mmj specimen as indicated by scribe scratches marked on the specimen before testing, a retest shall be allowed. 633 For “as-wrought” material, ifthe results for ‘any original tension specimen are within 2000 psi [14 MPa] of the requited tensile strength, within 1000 psi (7 MPa] of the required yield point, or within 2% of the required elongation, retesting shall be permitted. If the original testing required only one test, the retest shall consist of two random tests from the heat or lot involved. If the original testing required two tests of which one failed by the amounts fisted in this paragraph, the retest shall be made on one random test from the heat or lot. If the results on the retest specimen or specimens meet the specified requirements, the heat or test lot will be accepied. If the results of one retest specimen do not meet the specified requirements, the material is subject to rejection, 6.34 For thermally treated bars, ifthe results of the mechanical tests do not conform to the requirements, specified, two more tests may be selected for cach bar failing, and each of these retests shall conform to the requirements of the product specification. 635 Ifa bend specimen fails, due to conditions ‘of bending more severe than required by the specification, retest shall be permitted from the heat ortest lot involved.PART A —FERROUS MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS for which one random specimen for each original speci- ‘men showing failure shall be used.
