ASTM WK95563

Revision of A320/A320M-24a Standard Specification for Alloy-Steel and Stainless Steel Bolting for Low-Temperature Service

Rationale

ASTM A320 Section 5.1.5 requires that all tempering for L7M 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
