This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) provides general information for the interpretation and clarification of engineering drawing requirements relating to the manufacture and inspection of fluid system couplings, tube fittings, and hose ends. Because it is impractical to define every minute detail of the part on the face of the drawing, this standard describes interpretations of dimensioning of general machining features and otherwise undefined tolerances that fall under the heading of “good shop practice.” This standard is supplemental to ASME Y14.5M-1994 and explains, defines, and interprets drawing terms or practices that are not addressed by ASME Y14.5M-1994. Unless otherwise specified in this standard, drawing interpretations contained in ASME Y14.5M-1994 shall apply.
This index of trademarks of current and former manufacturers of aerospace fittings, couplings, hoses, and tube support devices is within the scope of activities of the SAE G-3 Committee and available at the time of publication. Supplier markings from previous publication are maintained for component traceability. Suggestions for additional entries or corrections shall be sent to SAE in Warrendale, PA.
This document is prepared as an aid in the selection of clamping devices and their use in aerospace equipment for the installation and support of tubing and wiring. For recommended installation practices, refer to ARP994.
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) establishes the method for qualification testing of tube joints and fitting attachments, using the flexure test method described in ARP1185. This qualification test method allows the determination of S-N type stress versus cycles or D-N type deflection versus cycles curves, as illustrated in AIR1418 as an alternate to flexure testing to a minimum endurance stress level.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the requirements for fluid fittings that combine both beaded hose connections and pipe threaded connections for use in all types of fluid systems.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the requirements for fluid fittings that combine both flanged fitting ends and beaded hose connections for use in all types of fluid systems.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the requirements for fluid fittings that combine both 37 degree flared and pipe threaded connections for use in all types of fluid systems.
