Applicability.
This test method establishes the procedure for determining therelative susceptibility of threaded fasteners to stress corrosioncracking. This is an accelerated test in which the test specimen issubjected to a uniaxial tensile stress and exposed to an alternateimmersion cycle in a 3-1/2 percent sodium chloride solution.
Potential hazard.
This test is potentially hazardous since the fastener issubjected to a high sustained load. It is recommended that thetesting area be completely enclosed to prevent injury to personnelworking in the proximity of the test area. It is also recommendedthat safety masks be worn when loading and examining thespecimen.
