PHYSICAL TEST OF MATERIALS
All materials used in the construction of the locomotive shall be of the best quality of their respeC' ve kinds, carefully inspected, and subjected to the fonowing tests. Notwithstanding these tests, should any defects be developed in working, the corresponding part will be rejected.
All plates must be rolled from steel manufactured by the open-hearth process, and must conform to the following chemical analysis:
Boiler Steel Fire-Box Steel Carbon, between.. . . ....... 0. T5 and 0.25 per cent. 0.15 and 0.25 per cent. Phosphorus, not over.... 0.05 " 0.03 " Manganese, 0·45 0·45 Silicon, 0.03 0.03 Sulphur, ................. 0.05 0.035
No sheets will be used that show mechanical defec'l:s. A test strip taken lengthwise from each sheet rolled should without annealing have a tensile strength of 60,000 pounds per square inch, and an elongation of 25 per cent. in a section originally S inches long. Sheets will not be used if the test shows a tensile strength of less than 55,000 pounds, or more than 65,000 pounds, pel' square inch, nor if the elongation falls below 20 per cent.
Copper plates for fire-boxes"must be rolled from best quality Lake Superior ingots; they must contain at least 99.75 per cent. pure copper, and should have a tensile strength of 30,000 pounds per square inch, and an elongation of at least 35 per cent. in a section originally 2 inches long. P lates showing a tensile strength of less than 29,500 pounds per square inch will not be used~
Iron for stay-bolts must be double refined, and must show an ultimate tensile strength of at least 4S,000 pounds per square inch, with a minimum elongation of 25 per cent. in a test section S inches long. Pieces 24 incl.les long must stand bending double both ways, without showing fracture or flaw. The iron must be rolled true to gauges furnished by The Baldwin Locomotive Works , and must permit of cutting a clean, sharp thread.
Copper stay-bolts must be manufactured from the best Lake Superior ingots; they must contain a minimum of 99.75 per cent. pure copper, and when annealed should have an ultimate tensile strength of 30,000 pounds per square inch, and an elongation of at least 35 per cent. iu a section originally 2 inches long. Copper with a tensile strength of less than 29,500 pounds per square inch will not be used.
All boiler-tubes will be carefully inspected and must be free from pit-holes or other imperfection. Each tube must be subjected by the manufacturers, before delivery, to an internal hydraulic pressure of not less than 500 pounds per square inch. They m ust be rolled accurately to the gauge furnished by The Baldwin Locomotive \Vorks, filling the gauge to a plump fit. They must be expanded in the boiler without crack or flaw, and must conform to the following test requirements.
A test section Ii inches long, cut from any tube, must permit of vertical h ammering without showing transverse cracks when flattened down.
All tubes must be draw; from steel manufactured by the open-hearth process and must conform to the following analysis:
Carbon... . ... 0. IS to 0.24 per cent. Phosphorus not over ............ 0.04 per, ~ent. Manganese .......... 0.40 to 0.65" Sulphur" ............ 0.05
A length of Ii inches, cut from any tube. must stand collapsing by vertical hammering without showing any cracks.
A length of 4 inches. cut from any tube, must stalld horiwntal collapsing until the sides meet without cracking. I
Tubes of brass or copper to be of uniform circumferential thickness and solid drawn ; to be perfectly round, and to resist an internal hydraulic pressure of 500 pounds per square inch. After annealing they must stand the following bending and flanging tests:
A length of 4 inches. cut from any tube, must stand being sawn lengthwise and doubled iuside out without showing signs of cracks. Any tube must stand h aving one end flanged without cracking. The tube will be held in a die with the end to be flanged projecting. For tubes of diameters between It and 2~ inches this projecting end is to be five-eights of an inch long. For other diameters a proportinate length is to be flanged.
Bar iron should have a tensile strength of 50,000 pounds per square inch. and an elongation of 20 per cent. in a section originally 2 inches long. Iron wi11 not be used if tensile strength falls below 48,000 pounds nor if elongation is less than 15 per cent., nor if it shows a granular fracture.
Tank-plates to be rolled from homogeneous steel billets. and must be of good finish and free from surface defects. such as spalling or bad buckling. The steel to be of such quality that pieces taken lengthwise of any plate shall show no signs of fracture when bent double while cold. over a mandrel whose diameter is one and a half times the thickness of plate so tested.
All blooms for use in axles, pins. rods. guides. and similar forgings. must be made by the open-hearth process and be free from seams. slivers. and other surface defects.
Drillings will be taken from a point midway between the centre and the surface of the bloom. and must conform to the following specification when analyzed by The Baldwin Locomotive Works standard method:
Carbon, about.. .. 0.40 per cent. Phosphorus. not over ............ 0.05 per cent. Manganese, not over ......... 0.60" Sulphur," ............ 0.05 "
These blooms should be of such quality that a test piece. machined cold from a full-sized bloom of each heat used. has. when tested. an ultimate tensile strength of So.ooo pounds per square inch. and an elongation of 20 per cent. in a test sect ion originally 2 inches long.
Blooms will not be used that show an ultimate tensile strength of less than 75,000 or more than 90.000 pounds per square inch. or an elongation of less than 15 per cent.
All forgings which develop seams or pipes upon machining will be rejected. Of approved make and of following guaranteed mileage:
For 2S-inch wheels .... 40.000 miles. For 33-inch wheels .... 50,000 miles For 3o-inch wheels ............ · ...... 45.000 miles. Other sizes in proportion (Adopted by Joint Committee Master Car Builders' Association, American Railway Master Me
chanics Association. and Association of Manufacturers of Chilled Car 'Wheels, November 21. ISS9.) Deficient mileage will be adjusted upon the return of defective wheel. or that part of same containing
t he defect causing withdrawal from service. Or, if preferred. wheels will be furnished subject to approved specification and drop test without mileage guarantee.
All spring steel must be manufactured by the open-hearth or by the crucible process. and mnst be free from allY physical defects. The m etal desired has the following composition:
Carbon. .. .. ... 1.00 per cent. Silicon. not over .. .. ........ o. IS per cent. Manganese ........ 0.25 ·" Sulphur," ........ 0.02 " Phosphorus. not over.. ... 0.03
Steel will not be used which shows on analysis less than o.go or over 1.10 per cent. of carbon. or over 0.50 per cent. of manganese. 0.05 per cent. of phosphorus. 0.25 per cent. of silicon. or 0.05 per cent. of snlphur. A tempered bar resting upon supports 24 inches between centres must not take a permanent set of more than 0.05 inch after the first application of a load corresponding to a fibre stress of 135,000 pounds per square inch. nor more than 7.5 per cent. of the total deflection under 160.000 pounds fibre stress. nor any further set after five additional applications of a load giving a fibre stress of 150.000 pounds per square iuch.
All bronze to be m ade from new metals and should show the following analysis: Copper.... .. .. 79.70 per cent. Lead. .. ........... 9.50 per cent, 'fin,.... ................. .. .. ...... 10.00 " Phosphorus . .............. ... o.So "
