This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers devices whose primary function is the retention of fasteners, except for such devices that are integral with the item being retained.
This Aerospace Recommended Practice is applicable to the design of remote indicating magnetic chip detectors installed in the lube systems, hydraulic systems, controls systems, gearboxes, constant speed drives, etc. of Aerospace Power Plants. It is not applicable to the touch-to-test type terminal models.
This procurement specification covers aerospace quality safety cable kits consisting of safety cables and ferrules made from the same corrosion and heat resistant steels and a nickel base alloy of the type identified under the Unified Numbering System as follows: a UNS S30400 - Corrosion resistant steel (AMS5697, AMS5560) b UNS S32100 - Corrosion and heat resistant steel (AMS5689, AMS5570) c UNS N06600 - Nickel base alloy (AMS5687, AMS5580) d UNS N06625 - Nickel alloy, corrosion resistant (AMS5666, AMS5581) The requirements for installation practices are also specified.
This standard establishes dimensional limits and acceptance requirements for uniform cross section spiral retaining rings which have been processed to minimize the amount of distortion and burrs.
Orientation of the engine, engine axis and coordinate system referred to herein shall be the conventional terminology used in all references to aircraft gas turbine engines.
This specification covers the requirements for format and outline of contents of operating instructions in published form or in manuscript form suitable for publication.
This paper was prepared to support supersession of MIL-S-8879C with Screw Thread Conformity Task Force selected industry standard AS8879C, published by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Other documentation changes will be covered by separate papers. Separate papers are anticipated for thread gaging issues, and thread gage calibration procedures. The STC-TF decided that the thread design standard needed to be completed before thread gage definition could be addressed. Thread gage definition has to be known before calibration procedures can be addressed.
