Letter 129

ASTM/Mil specs online, and surface prep of magnesium

-----

1) Is there anyway to locate Military Specs or ASTM's on the internet to download.
2) We are plating Electroless Nickel on Magnesium parts and would like to know where I can get some references on Magnesium for cleaning procedures for different types of mag alloys. Thanx in advance

ASTM gets a substantial part of their operating income from reprints of specifications, so you'll get them from the ASTM website but on a pay basis. As for prepping magnesium though, a terrific reference is ASM International's Metals Handbook, Volume 5: Surface Engineering which has a 20-page chapter just on magnesium.
