This specification covers a corrosion- and heat-resistant nickel alloy in the form of sheet and strip up to 0.1874 inch (4.76 mm), inclusive, in thickness and plate up to 4.000 inches (101.6 mm), inclusive, in thickness.
Rationale:
AMS5542R is the result of a Five-Year Review and update of the specification. The revision updates composition testing and reporting requirements (see 3.1, 3.1.1, 4.2, and Table 1), clarifies finish and bending requirements (see 3.2.1 and 3.3.1.2), adds pyrometry (see 3.3.2), adds strain rate requirements to tensile testing (see 3.3.2.1.2), adds hardness information (see 3.3.2.2 and 8.2), and updates the exceptions requirements (see 3.3.3 and 8.5).
