Scope

1.1 Purpose—This practice establishes the minimum requirements for ultrasonic examination of wrought products. NOTE 1—This practice was adopted to replace MIL-STD-2154, 30 Sept.1982. This practice is intended to be used for the same applications as the document which it replaced. Users should carefully review its requirements when considering its use for new, or different applications, or both. 1.2 Application—This practice is applicable for examination of materials such as, wrought metals and wrought metal products having a thickness or cross section equal to 0.250 in. (6.35 mm) or greater. 1.2.1 Wrought Aluminum Alloy Products—Examination shall be in accordance with Practice B594. Angle beam scans of wrought aluminum alloy products shall be performed in accordance with this practice as agreed upon by the purchaserand supplier. 1.3 Acceptance Class—When examination is performed in accordance with this practice, engineering drawings, specifications, or other applicable documents shall indicate the acceptance criteria. Five ultrasonic acceptance classes are defined in Table 1. One or more of these classes may be used to establish the acceptance criteria or additional or alternate criteria may be specified. 1.4 Order of Precedence—Contractual requirements and authorized direction from the cognizant engineering organization may add to or modify the requirements of this practice. Otherwise, in the event of conflict between the text of this practice and the references cited herein, the text of this practice takes precedence. Nothing in this practice, however, supersedes applicable laws and regulations unless a specific exemption has been obtained. 1.5 Measurement Values—The values stated in inch-pounds are to be regarded as standard. The metric equivalents are in parentheses. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health , and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. 1.1 Purpose—This specification specifies the minimum requirements for ultrasonic testing of forged products. NOTE 1—Adopted this practice to replace MIL-STD-2154 of September 30, 1982. This practice is intended to be used by the same application as the file it replaces. Users should carefully review their requirements when considering using them for new or different applications, or both. 1.2 Application—This specification is applicable to the inspection of materials such as wrought metals and wrought metal products having a thickness or cross-section equal to or greater than 0.250 in. (6.35 mm) or greater. 1.2.1 Forged Aluminum Alloy Products—Inspection shall be in accordance with Specification B594. Angle beam scanning of wrought aluminum alloy products shall be performed in accordance with this practice agreed upon by the purchaser and supplier. 1.3 Acceptance Levels—When inspecting in accordance with this specification, the acceptance criteria shall be noted on the engineering drawings, specifications, or other applicable documents. Five ultrasonic acceptance levels are defined in Table 1. One or more of these levels may be used to establish acceptance criteria, or additional or alternative criteria may be specified. 1.4 Priorities—Contractual requirements and authorized instructions from the recognized engineering organization may add to or modify the requirements of this practice. Otherwise, in the event of a conflict between the text of this specification and a reference cited herein, the text of this specification shall control. However, nothing in this Practice supersedes applicable laws and regulations, unless a specific exemption is obtained. 1.5 Measurements—Values expressed in inch-pounds are considered standard. Metric equivalents are in parentheses. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.7 This International Standard has been developed in accordance with the internationally recognized principles of standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guidelines and Recommendations issued by the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee of the World Trade Organization.
