Chemical Analysis
General Appearance
Carbon BO- 12%
Manganese
$-70-S-110 0.35 - 1.2%
8.170 0.50 - 1.2%
$-280 and Larger - All Grit 0,60 - 1.2%
siiicon (0.4% rut
Sulfur (0.05% maximum
Phosphorous, 0.05% maximum
Microstructure
The Microstructure of cast steel shot and grit shall be uniform
Martensite, tempered to a degree consistent with the hardness
range, with fine well distributed carbides, if any
Hardness.
Shot
Ninety percent of random hardness check performed on a.
representative sample shall fall within the range of 402-558 Knoop
harrinass number (40-51 HRC)
Grit
Ninety percent of random hardness check performed on a
representative sample shall fall within the following ranges,
S hardness range of 402-558 Knoop hardness number (40-51 HRC),
Mnaraness range ot 435-650 Knoop (47-56 HRC), L hardness
range 612-754 Knoop (54-61 HRC), and H hardness of 732 Knoop
minimum (60 HRC),
‘The hardness may be determined by any ofthe various methods
appicable to small sections such as Micro Hardness Tester with a
Knoop indenter, at loads determined to provide a reliable
conversion to Rockwell C.
Der
‘The density of cast steal shall be not less than 7.3 gi
7 gmice for shot
‘The cast steel shot shall be as nearly spherical as commercially
possible and no more than 20% of the shot particles shall have
objectionable defects.
oe Voids for Shot
‘No mor than 10% ofthe cast ste! shot parices shall contain vos
as determined at 10X magnification. A void must be greater than
10% of the arca ofthe abracive parle to be conaidered harmful
= Shrinkage ____
No more than 10% of cast steel shot particles shall contal
shrinkage as determined at 10X magnification. Shrinkage is an
internal cavity with irregular dendritic surface, whose area is larger
than 40% of the particle area.
Cracks
No more than 15% of cast sieel shot and 40% of the cast sieel git
Particles shall have cracks as determined at 10X magnification. A
rack is 8 linear discontinuity whose length is greater than 3 times:
its width and radial in direction.
Particle Shape of Shot
When examined at 10X magnification, no more than 8%. of the
shot particles will have a length that is in excess of twice the cross
section.
Mechanical Tests
‘Sovoral dacigne of ehat tecting machines are available
‘commercially for application to routine procedures. See SAE
\J445 for methods of checking uniformity of shipments of shot or
{fit to determine relative fatigue life and energy transfer of cifferent
‘ypes of shot or grt.
Ervin AMASTEEL Special Hardness
Whareinass - 8% minimum 405-650 KHN (27-56 HRC)
hardness - 90% minimum 612-754 KHN (54-61 HRC)
H hardness - 90% minimum 733 KHN (60 HRC minimum)
AMASTEEL is also available in other hardness ranges. For these requirements, the hardness of 90% of the representative sample will be
within a range of 7 HRC points.
Ervin AMASTEEL Shot and Grit products meet or exceed all of the requirements of SAE specifications. The Ervin AMASTEEL Division is also
