FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard ( Third Revision ) was adopted by the Indian
Standards Institution on 22 June 1979, after the draft finalized by the Lead,
Zinc, Tin, Antimony and Their Alloys Sectional Committee had been
approved by the Structural and Metals Division Council.
0.2 This standard was originally published in 1950 and, subsequently
revised in 1961 and 1966. In this revision of the standard, clause on shapes
and weights of ingots has been revised. Sampling clause has been modified
and impurity limits for Grade 6 have been revised, Pouring temperature
ranges and typical uses of the alloys are given in Appendix A for
information.
0.3 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this
standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS : 2-1960*. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off
value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
1. SCOPE
1.1 This standard covers the requirements
bearing alloys ( see Table 1 ).
2. SUPPLY OF MATERIAL
2.1 General requirements relating to the supply of antifriction
alloys shall conform to IS: 1387-1967t.

6.1 Unless otherwise agreed to between the purchaser and the manufacturer, two percent of the ingots from each melt shall be broken at the
notch to find out the nature of fracture.
The fractured surfaces shall not
show segregation, dross, dirt, spots, overheated metal or any type of
non-metallic inclusions.
7. SAMPLING
7.1 Sampling for Chemical Analysis - Unless otherwise agreed to between
the purchaser and the manufacturer, two ingots or two percent of the
ingots, whichever is greater shall be, selected at random from each melt.
7.1.1 The method of preparing samples for chemical analysis from the
ingots selected under 7.1 shall be in accordance with IS : 1409-1959.
7.2 Sampling for Fracture Test - Unless otherwise agreed to between the
purchaser and the manufacturer, sampling shall be done as given in 6.1.
8. RE-TESTS
8.1 Re-test for Chemical Cqmposition - If the sample prepared under 7.1.1

under 3.1, two more tests shall be
conducted on the same sample in order to confirm that the analysis has
been done correctly.

8.2 Re-test for Fracture Test - If the samples selected and tested to meet
the requirements under 6.1 fail, two further samples shall be selected from
the same melt and shall be broken at the notch to find out the nature of
the fracture.
Should the fractured surfaces of any one of the ingots show
segregation, dross, dirt, spots, overheated metal or any type of non-metallic
inclusions, the lot shall be deemed as not complying with this standard.
