Designation:F147012Standard Practice forFastener Sampling for Specified Mechanical Properties andPerformance Inspection1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1470;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThroughout this practice the terms detection and prevention apply to quality control systems.Abriefdescription of both is provided to assist the purchaser in the application of this practice.The detection system relies on inspection as the primary means of controlling the quality offurnished material.Methods include in-process and final inspection.In-process inspection is typicallyperformed by the individual performing the process and generally includes a first-piece inspection bysomeone other than the operator.Quality-control inspection may perform audit inspections on theprocess output during the course of the production run.In addition,a final inspection is performed byquality control inspectors according to a prescribed sample plan.The other sample plans utilize zerodefects as their acceptance criteria.The prevention system uses advanced quality planning in addition to many of the techniques usedin the detection system.Quality planning incorporates a systems approach to quality control thatfocuses on defect prevention and continual improvement.In addition,Statistical Process Control(SPC)is usually applied to control the process,to achieve process stability and improve the capabilityby reducing the variability.ISO 9001,ISO/TS 16949,ASQ Q9001,and Guide F26882quality system standards,or acombination thereof,are models that may be used in establishing a prevention-based quality system.1.Scope*1.1 This practice provides sampling methods for determin-ing how many fasteners to include in a random sample in orderto determine the acceptability or disposition of a given lot offasteners.1.2 This practice is for mechanical properties,physicalproperties,performance properties,coating requirements,andother quality requirements specified in the standards of ASTMCommittee F16.Dimensional and thread criteria samplingplans are the responsibility of ASME Committees B18.1 andB18.18.2M-B18.18.6M.1.3 This practice provides for two sampling plans:onedesignated the“detection process,”as described in Terminol-ogy F1789,and one designated the“prevention process,”asdescribed in Terminology F1789.1.4 This practice is intended to be used as either a FinalInspection Plan for manufacturers,or as a Receiving InspectionPlan for purchasers/users.It is not valid for third-party quali-fication testing.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3F1789 Terminology for F16 Mechanical FastenersF788/F788M Specification for Surface Discontinuities ofBolts,Screws,and Studs,Inch and Metric SeriesF812/F812M Specification for Surface Discontinuities ofNuts,Inch and Metric SeriesF2688 Guide for System-Based,Customer-Centered QualityPlan For Manufacturers2.2 ASME Standards:ASME B18.18.1 Inspection and Quality Assurance for Gen-eral Purpose FastenersASME B18.18.2M Inspection and Quality Assurance forHigh-Volume Machine Assembly Fasteners1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F16 on Fastenersand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F16.93 on Quality AssuranceProvisions for Fasteners.Current edition approved Nov.15,2012.Published December 2012.Originallyapproved in 1993.Last previous edition approved 2009 as F147009.DOI:10.1520/F1470-12.2A practice for developing a quality management system that does not requirethird party certification.3For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 ASME B18.18.3M Inspection and Quality Assurance forSpecial Purpose Fasteners4ASME B18.18.5M Inspection and Quality Assurance PlanRequiring In-Process Inspection and Controls4ASME B18.18.6M Quality Assurance Plan for FastenersProduced in Third Party Accreditation System42.3 ASQ Standards:ASQ Q9001 Quality Management Systems42.4 ISO Standards:ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems Requirements4ISO/TS 16949 Quality management systemsParticular re-quirements for the application of ISO 9001:2000 forautomotive production and relevant service part organiza-tions.43.Terminology3.1 Terms shall be defined in accordance with TerminologyF1789.3.2 Definitions:3.2.1 test,nan element of inspection that generally de-notes the determination by technical means of the properties orelements of supplies,or components thereof and involves theapp
