Section-B covers schedule of infrastructure requirements for manufacturing, testing facilities, quality control requirements and inspection. 2 MATERIAL 2.1 The material shall conform to grade: 35MniMos of 1S: 5517-93 with the following additional requirements: ‘ ve 3 MANUFACTURE ‘he steel shall betmelted in Electric Arc furnace followed:by sécondary refining. “Fhe molten metal shall be degassed throughvacuum:degasaing arrangements to erisure freedom from harmful gaseous content. eer ys 3.1.1. The hydrogen content in the liquid steel shall be 2 ppm max, 3.1.2, The sulphur and phosphorus content during ladle analysis shall be 0.025% (Max.) each. 3.1.3. The size of ingots or concast billets for the given size of the finishud reel product shall be such that a minimum reduction ratio of 8:1 from the minimum cross- section area of the ingot or concast billets to the maximum cross-eéction area of the product is ensured, 3.1.4 Elements not mentioned in IS: 5517-93 shall not be, intentionally or otherwise, added to the steel. i 3.2 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION 3.2.1 The ladle analysis of steel, when analysed in accordance with IS: 228 shall be to IS: 5517-93 Table-2 read in conjunction with requirements detalied in clause Nos. 2.1.1.2 and 2.1.1.3 above. 33 33.4 3.3.2 3.3.3 3.3.4 34 3.6 ~~: £-9505(Revised) FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS The screw couplirigs and/ or spares such as bent couplirig links, pins etc, shall be free from harmful surface and sub- surface defects, which may impziir the end use Of the product. When ingot practice is adopted, the internal defesis of steel, as evaluated by macro etching test as per IS:11371-85 shall not be worse than S- 2 (Sub- surface), R-2 (Random condition) and C-2 (Centre segregation) as por ASTM E-381. When continuously cast billets/blooms are used, the intemal defects of steel, shall not be worse than SB-2 (Sub-surface blow-holes), SC1 (Sub-surface cracks), CS-2 (Centre segregation) and CL-2 (Centro looseness) as er 1S: 13362-92 (Stock for forging produced from continuously cast blooms, billets and slabs Spec.) During processing the billets, blooms or slabs shall be conditioned to remove injurious surface defect, provided the depth of condilioning does nol exceed 1 mm for every 15 mm of concered dimension, upto a maximum depth of 20 mm, -and provided thatthe width of the conditioning is at least four times its greatest depth; except that in case of slabs, theidepth of conditioning on the wide surface may exceed :this.allowance by 50%,.upto a maximum depth of 20 mm, The maximum depth of canditioning on two parallel sides at opposite locations shall not exceed one and half times the maximum allowed for one side. The transition between conditioned and non-conditioned areas shall be gradual. All heavy.swart and/or slag shall be.removed. After removal of surface defects from: the billets, magnetic particle-testing and ultrasonic examination may:be:carried out-on-all the. billets to ensure:freedom from surface defects and intemal defects respectively. “Standard for testing method and acceptance criteria may'be'prepared and'RDSO's approval obtained. In special cases, particularly where it is necessary on large material and is not injurious, greater depth of conditioning may be permitted by agreament belween the Purchaser/inspecting Authority and the Manufacturer. The method of conditioning employed for removal of surface defects shall be such that it does not impair the properties of the billet material, The Manufacturer shall be at liberty to choose the method of conditioning, subject to prior approval of the Purchaser. The raw material shall be procured from ROSO approved sources only. Complete details of chemical composition and other tests shall be obtained from steel maker and shall be produced to the inspector. : The screw coupling assembly shall conform to RDSO/SK-990"1 with latest alterations, lea 5 6 64 QUALITY OF SCREW COUPLINGS if too good fit is made, the couplings are soon distortion of the screws due to stresses set u {tem § of $k.98002) to be assembied with bent coupling before nest treatment. Procedure should be by heating the bent portion of the coupling link and then @pening / closing up reasonably for insertion of the trunnion After fitrrent, arms of {he coupling link to be closed.
