1、Designation:A476/A476M00(Reapproved 2014)Standard Specification forDuctile Iron Castings for Paper Mill Dryer Rolls1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation A476/A476M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the
2、year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers ductile iron castings for use inpressure containing paper mill dryer rolls at temperatur
3、es up to450F 230C.1.2 No precise quantitative relationship can be stated be-tween the properties of the iron in various locations of the samecasting or between the properties of a casting and those of a testspecimen cast from the same iron(see Appendix X1).1.3 The values stated in either SI units or
4、 inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3.1 ExceptionWithin the text,the
