FIG. 1 Test Specimen and Method of Making Shear Test of Clad Plate
NOTE 1When necessary, it is permissible to use a narrower specimen, but in such a case the reduced portion shall be not less than 1 in. in width. NOTE 2Punch marks for measuring elongation after fracture shall be made on the at or on the edge of the specimen and within the parallel section; either a set of nine punch marks 1 in. apart, or one or more sets of 8-in. punch marks may be used. NOTE 3The dimension t is the thickness of the test specimen as provided for in the applicable material specications.
FIG. 2 Standard Rectangular Tension Test Specimen with 8-in. Gage Length
NOTE 1The bend may be made over a diameter equal to the thickness of the test material.
7.2.3 The bond between the alloy cladding and the base metal shall be ascertained by observation of the behavior of the composite sheet or strip when sheared with the alloy side down. 7.3 Methods and practices relating to mechanical testing required by this specication shall be in accordance with Test Methods and Denitions A 370. 8. Product Analysis 8.1 Product analyses may be required on the nished product only when the composite plate thickness is sufficient to permit obtaining drillings or millings without dangerNumber of contamination from the adjacent layer. 8.2 If product analysis is specied by the purchaser, it shall be made from drillings Tests and Retests 8.1 One or millings taken from the nal piece or a broken test specimen. In order to avoid contamination more tension tests, as required by the base plate metal, cladding samples shall be taken from specications for the test coupon by removal and discard of all the base metal plate material, plus 40 % of the cladding thickness from the bonded side, not to exceed 116 in. (1.588 mm). The material and, when specied, one shear test or three bond bend tests shall be chemically cleaned and millings made representing each plate as rolled. Each specimen shall be taken to represent in the full cross-section nal condition of the remainder. 8.3 Methods and practices relating to chemical analysis heat treatment required by this specication shall for the plate, including any SPWHT if required. 8.2 If any test specimen shows defective machining or develops aws, it may be in accordance with Test Methods, Practices, discarded and Terminology A 751. 8.4 Results of the product analysis shall conform to the requirements of Section 7 of Specication A 480/A 480M. another specimen substituted. 9. Dimensions, Mass, and Permissible Variations 9.1 Composite plates, sheets, and stripsTest Specimens 9.1 The tension test specimens from plate shall conform to the dimensional and mass requirements prescribed in T the specications for the base metal. 9.2 Bend test specimens for the alternative bond strength tests shall be taken at right angles to longitudinal axis of the plate. 9.3 When required by the purchaser, the shear test specimen should be taken near a corner of the plate, parallel to its longitudinal axis, or other location that is representative of the nal product. 9.4 For plates 1, Table 2, Table12 in. [38 mm] and under in thickness tension test specimens shall be full thickness of the material except as specied in 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. 9.5 For plates over 112 in. [38 mm] in thickness, tension tests shall be of the form shown in Fig. 3, Table 4, and shall be of all base steel conforming to the requirements of the specication for the base steel.

NOTEThe gate length and llets shall be as shown, but the ends may be of any shape to t the holders of the testing machine in such a way that the load shall be axial. The reduced section shall have a gradual taper from the ends toward the center, with the ends 0.003 to 0.005 in. larger in diameter than the center.
FIG. 3 Standard Round Tension Test Specimen with 2-in. Gage Length
9.6 The bend test specimen used for bond strength determination shall be 112 in. wide [38 mm] by not more than 34 in. [19 mm] in thickness and shall be machined to the form and dimensions shown in Fig. 2, or may be machined with both edges parallel. In reducing the thickness of the specimen, both the alloy cladding and the base steel shall be machined so as to maintain the same ratio of clad metal to base steel as is maintained in the plate, except that the thickness of the clad metal need not be reduced below 18 in. [3.1 mm]. The sides of the bend test specimen used for bond strength determination may have the corners rounded to a radius not over 116 in. [1.6 mm] for plates, 2 in. [50 mm] and under in thickness, and not over 18 in. [3.1 mm] for plates over 2 in. [50 mm] in thickness. 10. Thickness of Cladding Metal 10.1 The minimumProduct Analysis 10.1 Product analysis may be required for the cladding alloy on the nished product. Chemical analysis may be accomplished by wet chemical or instrumental procedures. If wet chemical procedures are used, millings may be taken only when the composite plate thickness a is sufficiendt to permit obtaining millings without danger of contamination from the adjacent layer. If spectrometric procedures are used, the sample shall be exposed on the center line of the cladding when there is sufficient cladding thickness available so that there is no contamination from the adjacent base metal. 10.2 If product analysis is specied by the purchaser for the cladding alloy, it shall be made from drillings or millings taken from the nal piece or a broken test specimen. For wet chemical analysis, in order to avoid contamination by the base plate metal, millings of cladding samples shall be taken from the alloy-cladding test coupon by removal and discard of all the base metal plate material, plus 40 % of the cladding thickness from the bonded side, not to exceed 116 in. [1.6 mm]. The material shall be agreed upon between chemically cleaned and sufficient millings shall be taken to represent the p full cross-section of the remainder. If there is insufficient cladding thickness available to spectrographically expose on the center line of the cladding without contamination, 50 % of the cladding shall be removed and the sample exposed on this surface. 10.3 Methods and practices relating to chemical analysis required by this specification shall be in accordance with Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology A 751. 10.4 Results of the product analysis shall conform to the requirements of Section 7 of Specication A 480/A 480M. 10.5 Results of the product analysis for the backing steel when required shall conform to the requirements of Section 7 of Specication A 20/A 20M. 11. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance 11.1 The materialPermissible Variations 11.1 Permissible variations except for thickness shall be f in accordance with Specication A 20/A 20M. 11.2 Minimum thickness of injurious defects, shall have a workmanlike appearance, the alloy cladding metal and of the backing steel, or of the total composite plate shall conform be as required by purchase order documents when ordered to the designated nish. 11.2 Plate alloy surfaces minimum thicknesses.
