ASTM A 802 Standard Practice for Steel Castings, Iron Castings, Surface Acceptance

The object of this standard is to facilitate cooperation between founder and casting purchaser in determi
quality level required.

It should assist in avoiding misunderstanding arising from imprecise descriptions at the order stage an
surface that is amendable to a particular techniques of non-destructive testing. The use of the comparato
on photographs which can introduce uncertainties concerning interpretation, particularly with re
irregularities.

The casting designer and purchasers can denote the level one to four on the drawings as the requireme
founder, Dandong Foundry, will check the photos, and learn about the requirements. The comparator can
quality inspection.
