This SAE Recommended Practice covers the dimensional and material requirements of rubber O-rings for automotive application and rectangular section rubber seal rings for automotive applications.

It is anticipated that this SAE Recommended Practice will be only one step in a comprehensive evaluation of the vehicle/transmission application. This document alone is not adequate “due care” to insure against high-speed seizure or other high-speed problems. The notes printed in bold print throughout the practice convey important information about the test itself or the results and should be considered carefully. All references to transmissions also apply to transaxles, except for the unbalance evaluation which applies only to rear-wheel-drive transmissions with propeller shaft output.

The following is a list of the most common terminology used in describing hydraulic control systems. The hydraulic control system of an automatic transmission may include oil pumps, pressure regulator, governor, and control valves.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as a guide to the design and use of static and reciprocating elastomeric transmission seals. It has been prepared from existing literature, which includes standards, specifications, and catalog data of both producers and users and includes generally-accepted information and data. The main reason for the preparation of the document is to make standard information available in one document to the users of static and reciprocating elastomeric transmission seals.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes equipment and procedures for the evaluation of the effectiveness and other performance characteristics of spark arresters or turbochargers used on the exhaust system of large engines normally used in a railroad locomotive, stationary power plant, and other similar applications. This document does not cover applications requiring flame arresting, exhaust gas cooling, or isolation from explosive gases. Two test methods are presented: a laboratory test using ambient air (cold test) and an engine test using exhaust gases (hot test). The hot test is preferred. Arresters tested by the provisions of this document can be expected to perform as tested when tilted no more than 45 degrees from their normal position. Test results from a spark arrester or turbocharger evaluated by the hot test can be applied to different engines of similar design, provided the data shows it to be effective in the applicable flow ranges.

This SAE Recommended Practice defines radial lip force for shaft seals. The principle of lip force measurement is described and the types of radial force measuring devices are discussed. A type of radial force measuring device and procedure for use is recommended.

This SAE Standard establishes physical properties required of SAE Coarse Test Carbon and SAE Fine Test Carbon and establishes test methods to ensure that these requirements are met.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to spring-loaded clutches such as are used with manual shift type transmissions.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes equipment and procedures for testing spark arresters used on medium-size, single-position internal combustion engines, normally used in transportable, stationary, and vehicular applications, such as highway trucks, agricultural tractors, industrial tractors, other mobile equipment, and motorcycles. This document provides two methods of testing (laboratory testing and engine testing) which may be used to evaluate a spark arrester. It also includes special requirements for screen type devices and an endurance test procedure for screen type spark arresters.

This document encompasses analytical procedures for measuring nonregulated diesel exhaust emissions. Methods are recommended for the measurement of aldehydes and carbonyl compounds, sulfates and the characterization of diesel exhaust particulates. Informational methods are presented for the measurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in diesel exhaust particulate samples. The procedures are based on current proven chemical and engineering practices. However, it should be noted that the procedures are subject to change to keep pace with established experience and technology.
