ASTM A 262 Detecting Susceptibility to Intergranular Attack in Austenitic Stainless Steels ASTM A 380 Cleaning and Descaling Stainless Steel Parts, Equipment, and Systems ASTM E 3 Preparation of Metallographic Specimens 3. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS 3.1 Heat Treatment Shall conform to AMS2759 and requirements specified herein. 3.2 Equipment Shall conform to AMS2759. Furnace temperature uniformity requirements for annealing, stress relieving, and stabilizing shall be ±25 °F (±14 °C). 3.3 Atmospheres Shall be controlled to not contaminate the parts being heat treated. Furnaces used to heat treat other classes of steel using atmospheres, which could contaminate austenitic corrosion-resistant steel parts, such as endothermic, exothermic, carbon-containing nitrogen base, etc, shall have purge cycles (See 8.2) run and then shall be tested to ensure that the surfaces of parts are not contaminated beyond the limits specified in 3.5.1. Materials which could attack or contaminate metal shall not contact parts. Composition and maintenance of salt baths shall be such as to prevent contamination of the parts. Salt baths shall be tested in accordance with AMS2759. Heat treating performed in air shall be in the natural atmosphere of a muffle furnace. 3.3.1 Heating Environment Parts shall be heat treated in either air or protective atmosphere. Acceptable protective atmospheres include argon, helium, hydrogen, neutral salt, vacuum, and exothermic. Nitrogen and nitrogen-hydrogen blends are permitted below 1425 °F (774 °C). Nitrogen and nitrogen-hydrogen blends are permitted at 1425 °F (774 °C) or over only if 0.020 inch (0.51 mm) is removed from all surfaces after heat treatment. Nitrogen and nitrogen-hydrogen blends are permitted up to 1925 °F (1052 °C) as a backfill quench for vacuum furnaces. Use of nitrogen from dissociated ammonia is prohibited. For scale-free or discoloration-free parts, an air atmosphere and air cooling should be avoided. 3.3.2 Protective Coatings A supplemental coating is permitted, to minimize oxidation on finished machined surfaces, when approved by the cognizant engineering organization. 3.4 Procedure 3.4.1 Acid Cleaning Parts shall be acid cleaned in accordance with ASTM A 380 before thermal treatment following forming with dies made from lead, kirksite, or other low-melting-temperature materials. SAE AMS2759/4C - 3 - 3.4.2 Soaking Heating shall be controlled, as described in AMS2759, such that either the heating medium or the part temperature, as applicable, is maintained at the set temperature shown in Table 1 for the soak time shown in Table 2. Soaking shall commence when all control, indicating, and recording thermocouples reach the specified set temperature minus the required temperature uniformity tolerance or, if load thermocouples as defined in AMS2759 are used, when the part temperature reaches the minimum of the furnace uniformity at the set temperature. 3.4.3 Annealing, Stress Relief, and Dimensional Stabilization Shall be accomplished by heating, soaking, and cooling as shown in Tables 1 and 2. 3.4.4 Heating, stress relieving, or slow coaling of unstabilized grades, except 304L and 316L, between 875 and 1500 °F (468 and 816 °C) is prohibited. 3.4.5 Straightening When approved by the cognizant engineering organization, straightening shall be accomplished at ambient temperature with a post-straightening stress relief as shown in Table 1 or at the stress relieving temperature shown in Table 1 without a subsequent stress relief. For parts subject to excessive warpage, dimensional stabilization may be substituted for stress relief, when approved by the cognizant engineering organization. 3.5 Properties 3.5.1 Surface Contamination When any surface of a part is not machined after heat treatment, the protective atmosphere or backfill medium in furnaces, for heating parts above 1350 °F (732 °C), shall be controlled not to produce carburization or nitriding (See 3.5.1.1), and intergranular oxidation shall not exceed 0.0007 inch (0.018 mm). Parts heat treated in salt baths shall be free of residual salts. 3.5.1.1 Unless specifically informed that the parts will be machined all over, the heat treating processor shall process the parts as though some surfaces will not have subsequent metal removal and, therefore, shall heat treat parts using controlled atmosphere which will conform to the surface contamination requirements. Unless specified, controlled atmosphere is not required for parts with only raw material surfaces, except those made from sheet or strip. 3.5.1.2 Furnaces used exclusively to heat treat parts which will have all contamination removed shall not require testing. 3.5.2 Carbide Precipitation When using other means of cooling in accordance with Table 1, Note 2, carbide precipitation is not permitted. 3.6 Test Methods Shall be in accordance with AMS2759 and as follows: 3.6.1 Surface Contamination Testing shall be by metallurgical examination at approximately 500X magnification of etched specimens prepared in accordance with ASTM E 3. The chord method in ARP1820 may be used to enhance this examination. --`,,```,`,``,,,`````,`,,``,,,`,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`--- SAE AMS2759/4C - 4 - 3.6.2 Carbide Precipitation Shall be determined in accordance with ASTM A 262. 4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS The responsibility for inspection, classification of tests, sampling, approval, entries, records, and reports shall be in accordance with AMS2759 and as specified in 4.1 and 4.2. 4.1 Classification of Tests The classification of acceptance, periodic, and preproduction tests shall be as specified in AMS2759 and as specified in 4.1.1 and 4.1.2. 4.1.1 Periodic Tests Surface contamination (3.5.1) is a periodic test and shall be performed for each piece of equipment after the purging of atmospheres whenever the equipment has been used previously to heat treat using atmospheres, such as endothermic, exothermic, carbon-containing nitrogen base, etc, which could contaminate austenitic corrosion-resistant steel parts. 4.1.2 Preproduction Tests Surface contamination (3.5.1) is a preproduction test and shall be performed prior to any production heat treating for each piece of equipment and type of atmosphere to be used in each furnace. Additionally, tests to determine conformance to the requirements for carbide precipitation shall be performed prior to any production heat treatment for each piece of equipment and each alternate means of cooling. 4.2 Sampling Shall be in accordance with AMS2759 and as follows: 4.2.1 Surface Contamination Testing One or more samples shall be processed. 5.
