For general heat-resistant alloy castings, reference should ke made to Specification [A207IA 297M. For nickel alloy castings for comosion-esistint service, reference should he made to Specification A 44/4 494M. 1.2 The values stated in either ineh-pound units or ST units are fo be regarded separaicly as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other, Combining values from the lwo systems may result in aonconformance with the specifi- Inch-pound units are applicable for material ordered to ation A 743M. 2.

'8.3 Post weld heat treatment, if required, shall be in accor- dance with Table 1 8.3.1 The martensitic grades CAGNM, CAIS, CALSM, CBG, and CA4O shall be retempered after weld repairing, ‘except that local tempering will be permitted if, inthe opinion of te manufacturer, furnace heat eating will be damaging to the finished surface of a machined casting. Heat treatment, other than tempering, of grades CAGNM, CA15, CALSM, (CBS, and CA4O after weld repairing shall be performed only TABLE 3_Minimum Proheat Temperatures when agreed upon between the manufacturer and the pur- chaser, Weld repair on Grade CA4OF is not recommended ‘because of the risk of local hardening and possible cracking in the heat affected zone 83.2 Post weld heat treatment is not required on the other ‘grades of this specification. When post weld heat treatment is believed necessary for adequate corrosion resistance in the service environment, castings should be ordered in accordance ‘with Specification A 744/A. 744M. 9. Product Marking 9.1. Castings shall he marked for material identification with, the ASTM specification number (A 743V/A 743M) and grade symbol, that is, CF8, CAIS, CB30, etc. In addition, the mamufacturer’s name or identification mark and the pattern ‘number shall be castor stamped using the low-siress stamps on all castings, Small-size castings may be such that marking must be limited consistent with the available area, ‘The marking of hheat numbers on individual castings shall be agreed upon tween the manufacturer and the purchaser, Marking shall be Grose —_Mninun Preeat Terersves____ in such position as not to injure the usefulness of the casting. yy EAS, CATA 00 05) 10.
