This specification establishes the engineering requirements for the heat treatment of titanium and titanium alloy parts. Heat treatment of raw material by raw material producers, forge shops, or foundries shall be in accordance with the material procurement specification AMS-H-81200.
This specification provides a standard set of procedures for sampling and testing to meet the requirements of material specifications for wrought titanium and titanium alloy products, except forgings and forging stock. It is applicable to the extent specified in a material specification.
This specification covers the procedures for approval of products of premium-quality titanium alloys and the controls to be exercised in producing such products.
This specification establishes requirements for titanium forgings of any shape or form from which finished parts are to be made. (See 8.3, 8.5.4, and 8.7). These forgings are used typically in the manufacture of high-performance parts when control of short-transverse tensile, fracture toughness, tensile creep, or tensile rupture is required, but usage is not limited to such applications.
This specification covers one grade of commercially-pure titanium in the form of bars, wire, forgings, flash welded rings, up to 4.000 inches (101.60 mm), inclusive, in nominal diameter or least distance between parallel sides, and stock for forging or flash welded rings.
