Description / Abstract:
This standard prescribes acceptance criteria for surface
inspections and radiographic inspections applied to metal castings.
This standard is not intended to apply to high pressure die
castings. Acceptance criteria for die castings may be based on
standards and guidelines developed by the American Society for
Testing and Materials (ASTM), and the North American Die Casting
Association (formerly the American Die Casting Institute (ADCI)).
Examples are ASTM B 505 and ADCI "Q", "E", and "M" series
standards.
