This dictionary of terms was prepared for use by those with a need to describe and understand the dynamics and handling of two-wheeled, single track vehicles. It is intended to span the gap between vehicle dynamics specialists and those with a more general interest. This report is pertinent to such areas as vehicle design and development, the description of two-wheeler properties, rider training and education, and the preparation of standards and regulations. This report was prepared by the SAE Motorcycle Committee, which solicits suggestions for improvements and additions to be considered in future revisions. Comments should be directed to SAE Headquarters.

This standard covers complete general and dimensional specifications for the various types of tube fittings intended for general application in the automotive, appliance, and allied fields. Flare type fittings shall be as specified in Figs. 1-4 and Tables 1-3. NOTE: For sizes 3/16-3/8 and 1/2-3/4 the flare type fittings depicted in Figs. 1A-3C are identical with the corresponding refrigeration tube fittings specified in SAE J513. Special size combination fittings 3/16-3/8 and 1/2-3/4 shall be as specified in J513. Inverted flared type fittings shall be as specified in Figs. 5-11 and Tables 1, 4-7. Gages and gaging procedures pertaining to inverted flared tube fittings are given in Appendix A. NOTE: The seat dimensions specified in Table 4 are predicated on practical threading limitations in steel fittings and use of these fittings with double flared tubing.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes minimum performance requirements for new pneumatic valves when tested in accordance with the test procedure outlined in SAE J1409. The performance requirements will include: a Input-output performance b Leakage characteristics c Low temperature performance d Elevated temperature performance e Corrosion resistance performance f Endurance testing g Structural integrity

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes minimum tolerance requirements for pilot operated and mechanically actuated modulating type valves, and through type valves used in the service brake control system when tested in accordance with the test procedure outlined in SAE J1859. This document applies to the nominal input-output characteristics as specified by vehicle original equipment manufacturer and labeled by the valve manufacturer as outlined in SAE J1860. The tolerance requirements will include: a Crack (opening) pressure or force. Crack pressure may be measured at the initial output pressure or as the pressure differential before output pressure exceeds 14 kPa (2 psi). Crack force may be measured at initial output pressure or before output pressure exceeds 14 kPa (2 psi). b Pressure differential (input-output)

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes uniform Test Procedures for desiccant Air Dryers used in vehicles with compressed air systems per SAE J2383. Continuous flow desiccant Air Dryers are excluded from the scope of this document.

These remanufacturing procedures are recommended minimum guidelines (with theunderstanding that being more critical is acceptable) for use by remanufacturers/rebuilders of alternators to promote consistent reliability, durability, and safety of remanufactured alternators. Installation of remanufactured or rebuilt products is often an economical way to repair an application even though the products may not be identical to original equipment parts. Before processing any part, a remanufacturer/rebuilder should determine if the original design and present condition of the core are suitable for remanufacturing/rebuilding so as to provide durable operation of the part as well as acceptable performance when installed on the application. The remanufacturer/rebuilder should also consider the safety aspects of the product and any recommendations of the original manufacturers related to remanufacturing or rebuilding this product.

This SAE Recommended Practice describes the dynamic testing procedures required to evaluate the integrity of patient compartment interior Storage Compartments such as cabinets, drawers, or refillable supply pouch systems when exposed to a frontal, side or rear impact (i.e., a crash impact). Its purpose is to provide component manufacturers, ambulance builders, and end-users with testing procedures and, where appropriate, acceptance criteria that, to a great extent, ensure interior Storage Compartments or systems meet the same performance criteria across the industry. Descriptions of the test set-up, test instrumentation, photographic/video coverage, test fixture, and performance metrics are included.
