Applicability. This test method establishes the procedurefor determining the relative susceptibility of threaded fastenersto stress corrosion cracking. This is an accelerated test in whichthe test specimen is subjected to a uniaxial tensile stress andexposed to an alternate immersion cycle in a 3-1/2 percent sodiumchloride solution.
Potential hazard. This test is potentially hazardoussince the fastener is subjected to a high sustained load. It isrecommended that the testing area be completely enclosed to preventinjury to personnel working in the proximity of the test area. Itis also recommended that safety masks be worn when loading andexamining the specimen.
