PORTABLE FRICTION FORGE BONDING SYSTEMS (PFFB) RELIABILITY AND SAFETY CHARACTERISTICS
ASME SECTION IX
TENSION TESTING TO FAILURE
MACRO-EXAMINATION
TEST SAMPLE TESTING PER ASME Section IX:Bend test 5 each studs from each set above per QW-192.1.2ACCEPTABLETorque test 5 each studs from each set above per QW-192.1.3ACCEPTABLE
TEST RESULTS PER ASME Section IX:5 studs from each set described above were subjected to bend testing per QW-192.1.2 and were found to meet the requirements specified5 studs from each set described above were subjected to torque testing per QW-192.1.3 and were found to meet the requirements specified
TENSION TESTING TO FAILURETypical failure mode characterized: Fracture of base metal in stud or base metal in plate(In both cases, failure observed at ~1400 lbs of load on gauge, or ~6600 lbf)
TEST SAMPLE TESTING PER ASME Section IX:MACRO-EXAMINATION (~10x, lightly etched) 304L stud (top),bond interface (mid), A36 carbon steel (bottom)Bond interface is free of cracks and injurious flaws
