    ASTM F467/F467M Specifications

    Standard requirements for nonferrous nuts used in general applications.

    Scope

    ASTM F467/F467M Specification covers the requirements for commercial wrought nonferrous nuts 1/4 inch to 1 1/2 inch in imperial sizes and M6 to M36 inclusive in diameter in a number of alloys in common use and intended for general service applications. Applicable bolts, cap screws, and studs for use with nuts covered by this specification are covered by Specification ASTM F468.

    ASTM F467/F467M Supplementary Requirements

    S1 – Stress Corrosion Requirements, Copper Alloys

    The S1 supplementary requirement focuses on stress corrosion resistance testing for copper alloy fasteners used in corrosive or high-moisture environments. This testing helps identify susceptibility to cracking caused by combined tensile stress and chemical exposure. It is especially important for marine, chemical processing, and offshore applications where corrosion-related failures can occur. Compliance with S1 improves long-term durability, structural reliability, and service safety of the material.

    S2 – Shipment Lot Testing

    The S2 supplementary requirement specifies additional shipment lot testing to verify that each production batch meets the required mechanical and chemical properties. This testing ensures consistency in material quality, dimensional accuracy, and performance before delivery to the customer. It provides enhanced traceability and quality assurance for critical engineering applications. Shipment lot testing helps reduce the risk of defective or non-conforming fasteners entering service.

    S3 – Dye Penetrant Inspection

    The S3 supplementary requirement requires dye penetrant inspection to detect surface cracks, discontinuities, or defects that may not be visible during normal visual examination. A penetrant liquid is applied to the material surface to reveal fine imperfections after processing. This non-destructive testing method improves quality control and helps prevent premature component failure. It is commonly used for safety-critical fasteners and precision-engineered assemblies.

    S4 – Heat Control (Alloys 400, 405, and 500 Only)

    The S4 supplementary requirement applies specifically to Alloys 400, 405, and 500 and establishes stricter heat control procedures during manufacturing. Proper heat identification and processing ensure the material maintains the required mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and metallurgical consistency. This requirement also supports traceability of production heats for quality verification and certification purposes. Heat control is essential for maintaining reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
