The purpose of this standard is to provide uniform methods for defining, quantifying, and classifying the residual stress in metallic structural alloy products and finished parts. These stresses may exist within a single element, or they may be the result of a joining process. Such quantification and classification may be required when residual stresses within mill stock or preforms can impact further in-process distortion during machining or other processes, and when residual stresses within finished components can impact final mechanical properties and performance (especially strength, durability, and fracture performance).

This specification provides requirements and procedures for hydraulic-pressure leak testing of parts.

This specification defines the requirements for in-process correction of foundry discontinuities by manual welding of castings.

This specification covers pyrometric requirements for equipment used for the thermal processing of metallic materials. Specifically, it covers temperature sensors, instrumentation, thermal processing equipment, correction factors and instrument offsets, system accuracy tests, and temperature uniformity surveys. These are necessary to ensure that parts or raw materials are heat treated in accordance with the applicable specification(s).

This specification covers procedures and requirements for peening of metal parts with portable, bonded-shot, rotary flap assemblies in accordance with AS2592. The principles of rotary flap peening are similar to conventional shot peening, except conversion of arc height values using the magnetic test strip holder is required for intensity determination.

This specification establishes the requirements for brush plating of cadmium by electrodeposition.

This specification, in conjunction with the general requirements for steel heat treatment covered in AMS2759, establishes the requirements and procedures for three classes of gas, vacuum, liquid, and low pressure (LPC) carburizing and related heat treatment of parts fabricated from carburizing grade steels. Parts made from steels other than those specified in the detail specifications may be heat treated in accordance with the applicable requirements using processing temperatures, times, and other parameters recommended by the material producer unless otherwise specified by the purchaser. This specification does not cover pack carburizing.

This specification covers the requirements for saturation peening, straightening, and forming metal parts using controlled pneumatic activated needles.

This specification covers engineering requirements for applying tungsten carbide thermal spray coatings to ultra-high strength steels (220 ksi and above) utilizing high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) combustion driven processes and the properties for such coatings. The processes and procedures herein apply only to the properties of the as-deposited coating.

An industry-wide interest has arisen with regards to the properties and capabilities of investment cast PH 13-8Mo corrosion resistant steel. Specifically of interest are the structural applications in the aerospace industry for this product heat treated to the H1000 condition. The objective of this AMEC cooperative test program was to generate and compile useful data for aerospace structural evaluation of investment cast PH 13-8Mo heat treated to H1000. The focus of the test program was the determination of overall mechanical properties, fatigue, fracture toughness, and crack growth data along with basic microstructural evaluation of the investment cast material. Additional objectives included the evaluation of mechanical property variations between cast and machined tensile specimens and evaluation of microstructural constituents. All testing was performed to determine the suitability of PH 13-8Mo, H1000 investment castings for use in the aerospace industry.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) addresses the general procedure for the best practices for minimizing uncertainty when calibrating thermal conductivity and cold cathode vacuum gauges, which includes the vacuum sensor(s) and accompanying electronics necessary for a pressure measurement to be made. It also includes the best practices for an in-process verification where limitations make it impossible to follow the best practices for minimizing uncertainty. Verifying the accuracy and operation of vacuum gauges is critical to ensure the maintenance of processes while under vacuum.

This specification covers a coating consisting of tungsten disulfide without binders and not requiring a curing process.

This specification covers procedures and requirements for peening of metal parts with portable, bonded-shot, rotary flap assemblies in accordance with AS2592. The principles of rotary flap peening are similar to conventional shot peening, except conversion of arc height values using the magnetic Almen test strip holder is required for intensity determination.
