1.1This test method describes mechanical test methods and defines acceptance criteria for coating and plating processes that can cause hydrogen embrittlement in steels. Subsequent exposure to chemicals encountered in service environments, such as fluids, cleaning treatments or maintenance chemicals that come in contact with the plated/coated or bare surface of the steel, can also be evaluated.

1.2This test method is not intended to measure the relative susceptibility of different steels. The relative susceptibility of different materials to hydrogen embrittlement may be determined in accordance with Test Method F1459 and Test Method F1624.

1.3This test method specifies the use of air melted AISI E4340 steel per SAE AMS-S-5000 (formerly MIL-S-5000) heat treated to 260 to 280 ksi (pounds per square inch ×1000) as the baseline. This combination of alloy and heat treat level has been used for many years and a large database has been accumulated in the aerospace industry on its specific response to exposure to a wide variety of maintenance chemicals, or electroplated coatings, or both. Components with ultimate strengths higher than 260 to 280 ksi may not be represented by the baseline. In such cases, the cognizant engineering authority shall determine the need for manufacturing specimens from the specific material and heat treat condition of the component. Deviations from the baseline shall be reported as required by 12.1.2. The sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement shall be demonstrated for each lot of specimens as specified in 9.5.

1.4Test procedures and acceptance requirements are specified for seven specimens of different sizes, geometries, and loading configurations.

1.5Pass/Fail Requirements-For plating/coating processes, specimens must meet or exceed 200 h using a sustained load test (SLT) at the levels shown in Table 3.

TABLE 1 Lot Acceptance Criteria for Notched Specimens

Type	Item	Sampling of Each Lot	Requirement/Method
1	Tensile Strength	4 each	Test Method E8. Tensile strength of each specimen must be within 10 ksi of the average.
1	Hardness^A	5 %	51 to 53 HRC per Test Methods E18. Round the average of three readings per specimen per Practice E29.
1	Dimensions	100 %	Meet tolerances of corresponding drawings. Notch dimension verified with shadow graphic projection at 50 to 100× or equivalent.
1	Notched Fracture Strength (NFS)	10 ea	Test Methods E8/E8M. NFS of each specimen must be within 10 ksi of the average.
1c	Self-loading notched round specimen bend fixture, Fig. A2.7	10 ea	Alternate: The number of turns of the loading bolt, which is required to produce fracture in each specimen, must be within 5 % of the average.
1d	Self-loading notched C-Ring bend fixture, Fig. A2.8	10 ea	Alternate: The change in diameter at fracture load for each specimen must be within 0.008 inches of the average.

^A If the hardness requirements of any of the sampled specimens are not satisfied, only those specimens of the lot that are individually inspected for conformance to these requirements shall be used for testing.
