ASTM A336/A336M-10

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
Designation:A336/A336M–09 Designation: A336/A336M – 10
Standard Specification for
Alloy Steel Forgings for Pressure and High-Temperature
1
Parts
This standard is issued under the fixed designationA336/A336M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.
A superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.
1. Scope*
2
1.1 This specification covers ferritic steel forgings for boilers, pressure vessels, high-temperature parts, and associated
equipment.
1.2 Forgings made of steel grades listed in Specification A335/A335M, may also be ordered under this specification. The
chemical, tensile, heat treatment, and marking requirements of Specification A335/A335M shall apply, except the forging shall
conform to the chemical requirements of Tables 1 and 2 of Specification A335/A335M only with respect to heat analysis. On
product analysis they may deviate from these limits to the extent permitted in Table 1 of this specification.
1.3 Supplementary Requirements S1 to S9 are provided for use when additional testing or inspection is desired. These shall
apply only when specified individually by the purchaser in the order.
1.4 Unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specification designation, the material shall be furnished to the inch-pound
units.
1.5 SpecificationA336/A336Mformerlyincludedausteniticsteelforgings,whicharenowfoundinSpecificationA965/A965M.
1.6 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each
system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the
two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
