Work Item
ASTM WK95557
Revision of A193/A193M-25 Standard Specification for Alloy-Steel and Stainless Steel Bolting for High Temperature or High Pressure Service and Other Special Purpose Applications
Rationale
ASTM A193 6.1.6 requires that all tempering for B7M must be performed after all cutting is performed, including cut to length - which is deemed as unnecessary. When the bolt is cut to length, it does not impede with its form, fit, or function. The threads are not impacted by the cut and therefore cut to length should be omitted from this restriction.
