This SAE Aerospace Information Report is to supplement content from ARP4163 pertaining to error analysis on the use of multiple drive adapter applications, on both vertical and horizontal balance machines. This new Aerospace Information Report will serve as a practical resource that offers guidance to the Machine Operator and Process Engineer.

to provide industry with a reference document highlighting the necessary design considerations and configuration option for an aircraft fully enclosed test facility (Hush House).

The goal of this new document is to provide criteria for managing, auditing, and controlling the use of rotating balancing tooling and associated support tools. A variety of subjects will be addressed including serialization and marking requirements, critical inspection criteria, performance tracking through tooling compensation trend analysis, handling of gage standards (rotor simulators, master blades, dummy blades, etc.), recommendations for periodic and preventive maintenance intervals, test recommendations to evaluate rotating tooling performance, requirements for traceable measures (such as torques, runouts, eccentricity, etc.), repeatability characterization, and criteria for return to service.

The materials defined by this U.S. CAR / S.A.E Recommended Practice are low VOC water based coatings for automotive tooling and general maintenance.

This SAE Standard covers the physical and performance requirements for electrodeposited copper, nickel, and chromium deposits on exterior ornamentation fabricated from die cast zinc alloys (SAE J468 alloys 903 and 925), and wrought zinc strip (ASTM B 69). This type of coating is designed to provide a high degree of corrosion resistance for automotive, truck, marine, and farm usage where a bright, decorative finish is desired.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to evaluation of the conformance match condition existing between two surfaces. Evaluation of this conformance may be especially useful in bonded applications although it may also have relevance to bolted adjacent surface joint conditions. Since good bonding surface conformity is necessary for providing optimal bond performance with pressure sensitive adhesives, the purpose of this document is to provide a method of evaluating the conformance match of the mating surfaces. This document is intended as a guide toward standard practice but may be subject to frequent change to keep pace with experience and technical advances. This should be kept in mind when considering the use of this document. Tool types, materials, application tools, and component contact area evaluation methods are included as part of this document.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to serve as a reference for the amount of torque that a Power Take-Off can induce on the transmission mounting pad. This document will apply to six-bolt, eight-bolt, and rear mounted power take-offs.

The scope of this SAE Information Report is an evaluation of the ports and tools used on automotive air-conditioning systems to evacuate and charge systems with approved refrigerants during vehicle service. A task force was formed in April 2021 to perform this evaluation and concluded its work in September 2021. The scope of the task force was to evaluate issues being reported from service repair shops with air-conditionings service ports and the tools being used to connect to these ports. The task force also evaluated published SAE J Standards and discovered many of these standards did not include the necessary requirements for service ports and tools. The task force published a final report of its findings and recommendations. The report includes recommendations to correct and publish new SAE Standards related to the scope of this project.

The scope of this SAE Recommended Practice is to give guidelines for design, processing, and material selection for stainless steel and bimetal exterior automotive moldings.

This SAE Recommended Practice covers the identification and classification of ceramic, sintered carbide, and other cermet tool products. Its purpose is to provide a standard method for designating the characteristics and properties of sintered tool materials.

The purpose of this SAE Information Report is to provide automotive engineers and designers with a concise statement of the basic characteristics of cast iron under elevated temperature conditions. As such, the report concentrates on general statements regarding these properties with limited illustrative data, anticipating that those who may be interested in more detail will want to use the bibliography provided at the conclusion of the report.

Because of the drastic chilling involved in die casting and the fact that the solid solubilities of both aluminum and copper in zinc change with temperature, these alloys are subject to some aging changes, one of which is a dimensional change. Both of the alloys undergo a slight shrinkage after casting, which at room temperature is about two-thirds complete in five weeks. It is possible to accelerate this shrinkage by a stabilizing anneal, after which no further changes occur. The recommended stabilizing anneal is 3 to 6 h at 100 °C (212 °F), or 5 to 10 h at 85 °C (185 °F), or 10 to 20 h at 70 °C (158 °F). The time in each case is measured from the time at which the castings reach the annealing temperature. The parts may be air cooled after annealing. Such a treatment will cause a shrinkage (0.0004 in per in) of about two-thirds of the total, and the remaining shrinkage will occur at room temperature during the subsequent few weeks.

This SAE Information Report is a summary of information obtained by way of survey conducted during the 2Q and 3Q of 1997 of MAYDAY system manufacturers. The data represented here has been condensed from the original survey that was conducted by telephone interviews and faxes. The information contained within is limited to technical data as it pertains to vehicle and on-board MAYDAY system operations. It does not contain business, marketing, or any proprietary technical information. The complete survey results are in the possession of the SAE. The purpose of this survey was to determine whether the general concept and architecture on which the SAE J2313 MAYDAY Message Set was being developed is consistent with those of current MAYDAY system hardware manufacturers. The survey was not intended for MAYDAY service providers or public service answer points and emergency service providers.

The cautionary statements presented in this SAE Information Report are to be included in all current and future SAE standards involving service practices (J2211) and service equipment (J2210) for HFC-134a refrigerant.
