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.

This document describes the assessment methods and physical requirements associated with the manual handling of carts and dollies, specific to material handling systems. All possible designs and applications could not be anticipated in creating these guidelines. Where there are questions of adherence to this document, such as use of an “off-the shelf” design, always consult the responsible Ergonomics Department. Force guidelines were primarily developed referencing the push/pull psychophysical Snook data contained in A Guide to Manual Materials Handling (second edition) by Mital, Nicholson and Ayoub (NY: Taylor & Francis, 1997). The force guidelines accommodate 75% of female capabilities and 99% of male capabilities. Factors that were included in the established guideline include: push / pull distances, vertical hand height, horizontal hand height, frequency and wheel / castor alignment and load rating. These factors were used to develop a conservative force guideline.

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.

The procedures and guidelines detailed in this SAE Information Report provide various techniques and processes to properly clean fluid power piping prior to assembly and operation.

This SAE Recommended Practice sets forth a method for determining the compatibility of automotive sealers with cathodic electrocoat primer.

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 defines conditions to which bonded assemblies can be exposed to simulate environmental aging. These recommendations are generally based on existing Original Equipment Manufacturer requirements at this time. (Environmental specifications used for this proposal were from General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.) The substrate type, dimension, and number are described by the standard for materials being tested and should include control specimens which receive no environmental aging.

Although not limited to, these installations are normally used on trucks considered as Medium Duty (Class 6 and 7), as well as Heavy Duty (Class 8).

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.

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.
