Specifies conditions for carrying out the tests, and includes nominal dimensions and tolerances for standard and subsidiary test pieces and requirements for the testing machine, its installation, and initial calibration. Guidance on the maintenance of the machine and a method for determining friction losses are included in an appendix.

This standard specifies the conditions for performing the Charpy U-notch impact test on metals with particular reference to ferrous metals. It also includes requirements for the installation of the testing machine, its initial and periodic calibration, and recommendations for its maintenance by the user.NOTE: The term U-notch is taken to include keyhole notch except where requirements specifically differ.
