8.3 Geometry of test specimens and the location in the
product from which they are taken shall be as specified in Test
Method BSS7,
84 Test Methods—The tension tests shall be made in
accordance with Test Method BSS7.
8.5 Retests—When there is evidence that the test specimen
is defective or is not representative of the lot of material,
retesting may be performed in accordance with Sections 8 and
9 of Test Method BSS7.
9. eat Treatment
9.1, Producer or supplier heat treatment forthe production of
‘TI, T2, TS and T1O-type tempers shall be in accordance with
Practice B945; and for the production of T3, T4, T6, T7, TS,
and T9-type tempers, except as noted in 9.2 or unless otherwise
specified in 9.3, shall be in accordance with AMS 2772.
9.2 Unless otherwise specified (4.2.1), alloys 6005A, 6013,
(6041, 6060, 6061, 6063, 6064, 6066, 6070, 6082, 6105, 6162,
£6262, 6351, 6360, 6463, 6560, and 7129 may be solution heat
‘eated and quenched at the extrusion press in accordance with
Practice 8807/B807M forthe production of T3, T4T6, T7, T8,
land T9.type tempers.
9.3 When specified (4.2.2), heat treatment of the production
of T3, T4, T6, T7, TS and T9.type tempers shall be in
accordance with Practice B918/B918M.
10. Producer Confirmation of Heat-Treat Response
10.1 In addition to the requirements of Section 8, material in
alloys 2014, 2024, and 6061 produced in the O or F temper
(within the size limits specified in Table 2) shall, after proper
solution heat treatment and natural aging for not less than 4
days at room temperature, conform to the properties specified
in Table 2 for T42 temper material. The heat-treated sample
may be tested prior to 4 days natural aging but if they fail to
‘conform to the T42 temper properties, the test may be repeated
after completion of 4 days natural aging without prejudice.
10.2 Alloys 2219, and 7075 material produced in the O or F
temper, (within the size limits specified in Table 2) shall, after
proper solution heat treatment and precipitation heat treatment,
conform to the properties specified in Table 2 for T62 temper
material.
10.3. Number of Specimens—The numberof specimens from
‘each lot of © temper material and F temper material to be
tested to verify conformance with 10.1 and 10.2 shall be as
specified in 8.2
1, Heat Treatment and Reheat-Treatment Capability
11.1 As-received material in the © or F temper in alloys
2014, 2024, and 6061 (within the size limitations specified in
‘Table 2 and without the imposition of cold work) shall be
capable of conforming tothe properties specified in Table 2 for
‘T42 temper, upon being properly solution heat-treated and
naturally aged for not less than 4 days at room temperature.
11.2. As-received material in the O and F tempers in alloys
2219 and 7075 (within the size limitations specified in Table 2
‘and without the imposition of cold work) shall be capable of
conforming to the properties specified in Table 2 for the T62
temper, upon being properly solution and precipitation heat-
treated,
11.3 Material in alloys and tempers 2014-74, T4510,
T4511, T6, T6510, and T6SI1, and 2024-73, T3510, T3511,
TSI, T8510, and T8511, shall be capable of conforming to the
properties specified in Table 2 for the T42 temper, upon being
properly resolution heat-treated and naturally aged for not less
than 4 days at room temperature.
Nore 7—Reginning with the 1975 revision, 6061-78, T6, T4510,
‘TASH, T6S10, and TSI were deleted fom 11-3 bec experience has
shown the reheatreated material tends to develop large recrystallized
‘rains and may fil 1 develop the lene proper shown in Table 2
114 Alloy 2219 in the T31, 73510, T3511, TS1, T8510, and

‘TOSII tempers, shall be capable of conforming to the proper-
ties specified in Table 2 for the T62 temper, upon being
properly resolution heat-treated and precipitation heat-treated.
11.5 Material in T3731, T3510, T3511, T4, T4510, and
‘TASII tempers shall be capable of conforming. upon being
properly precipitation heat-treated, to the properties specified
in Table 2 for the T81, T8510, T8511, T6, T6S10, and T6511
tempers, respectively.
12, Stress-Corrosion Resistance
12.1 Alloy 7075 in the T73 and T76-type tempers shall be

‘when subjected to the test specified in 12.2
12.1.1 For lotacceptance purposes, resistance 10 stress-
corrosion cracking for each lot of material shall be established
by testing the previously selected tension-test samples to the
criteria shown in Table 4
12.1.2 For surveillance purposes, each month the producer
shall perform atleast one test fr stress corrosion resistance on
each applicable alloy-temper, for each thickness range
0.750 in, and over produced that month. Each sample shall be
taken from material considered acceptable in accordance with
the lot-acceptance criteria of Table 4. A minimum of three
adjacent replicate specimens shall be taken from each sample
‘and tested. The producer shall maintain records of all lots so

12.2.1 Specimens shall be stressed in tension in the short
transverse direction with respect to grain flow and held at
constant strain. The stress level shall be 75 % of the specified
‘minimum yield strength for T73-type tempers and 25 ksi for
‘T76-type tempers.
12.2.2 The stress-corrosion test shall be made in accordance

AL. BASIS FOR INCLUSION OF PROPERTY LIMITS.
ALI Mechanical property limits are established in accor-
‘dance with Section 6, Standards Section, of the most current
edition of Aluminum Standards and Data and the latest edition
fof the Aluminum Association publication Tempers for Alumi-
‘num and Aluminum Alloy Produets (Yellow and Tan Sheets)
A1.2 Limits are based on a statistical evaluation of the data
indicating that at least 99 % of the population obtained from all
standard material meets the limit with 95 % contidenee. For the
products described, mechanical property limits are based on
the statistical analyses of atleast 100 tests from at least five
‘east lots of standard production material with no more than ten
‘observations from a given heat treat or inspection lot, Mechan
‘cal properties limits for press solution heat treated products
have specific additional requirements that are provided in
Tempers for Aluminum and Aluminum Alloy Products.
A2. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA FO!
AL Limits denoted as “tentative” by the Aluminum Asso-
ciation may be included. Requirements for tentative property
registrations are defined in the latest edition of Tempers for
Aluminum and Aluminum Alloy Products. Tentative property
limits are established at levels at which atleast 99 % of the data
conform at a confidence level of 95 %. Tentative property
limits, which are subject to revision, shall be based on a
statistical analysis of at least 30 tests from at least three cast
lots of standard production material with no more than ten
‘observations from a given heat treat or inspection lot, Where
tentative property limits are listed, they shall be shown in
italics and footnoted as “tentative” in the standard.
ALA All tests shall be performed in accordance with the
appropriate ASTM test methods,

for sale in commercial quantities within the prior twelve
months to at least three identifiable users.

Xi1 Designations assigned in conformance with this prac-
tice were used for wrought aluminum and wrought aluminum
alloys in ASTM specifications prior to 1960, and for cast
aluminum and aluminum alloys and ingot prior to 1974, but
now designations conforming to the American National Stan-
dard Alloys and Temper Designation Systems for Aluminum
(ANSI H35.1/H35.1M) are standard with the UNS, Practice
E527 for information only. The former ASTM designations and
the corresponding ANSI and UNS designations for wrought
alloys are as shown in Table X3.1. Cast alloys and ingot are as,
shown in Table X3.2. (See Table X1.1.)
