1、Designation:A290/A290M16Standard Specification forCarbon and Alloy Steel Forgings for Rings for ReductionGears1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A290/A290M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of
2、 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.Scope*1.1 This specification covers normalized and tempered,andquenched and tempered,carbon and alloy steel forged or rolledrings
3、for reduction gears.1.2 Several grades and classes of steel are covered asfollows:1.2.1 Grade 1,Classes A and B,and Grade 2,Classes C andD,are carbon steel.1.2.2 Grade 3,Classes E and F,Grade 4,Classes G,H,I,J,K and L,Grade 5,Classes M and P,and Grade 6,Class T,arealloy steel.1.2.3 All grades and cl
4、asses are considered weldable underproper conditions.Welding techniques are of fundamentalimportance and it is pre-supposed that welding procedure andinspection will be in accordance with proper methods for theclass of material used.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to
