MIL-STD-870C, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE STANDARD PRACTICE: CADMIUM PLATING, LOW EMBRITTLEMENT, ELECTRO-DEPOSITION (01 MAR 2007) [NO S/S DOCUMENT]

MIL-STD-870C, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE STANDARD PRACTICE: CADMIUM PLATING, LOW EMBRITTLEMENT, ELECTRO-DEPOSITION (01 MAR 2007) [NO S/S DOCUMENT]., This standard covers the process and materials required for the electro-deposition of cadmium on high strength steel substrates. Subsequent heat treating techniques needed to insure low embrittlement of steel are also described. This process is not authorized for use on steel heat treated above 1.65 X 109 PASCAL’s (Pa) (240,000 pounds per square inch {psi}) without the approval of the applicable procuring activity. This standard meets the corrosion resistance requirements of SAE-AMS-QQ-P-416. It may be used whenever SAE-AMS-QQ-P-416 is specified provided any unique requirements in SAE-AMS-QQ-P-416 are compiled with.
