This specification covers an aluminum alloy in the form of seamless, drawn tubing from 0.025 to 0.500 inches (0.64 to 12.70 mm) in wall thickness (see 8.6).
Rationale:
AMS4480A prohibits unauthorized exceptions Form (1.1), Exceptions (3.6), revises Properties (3.2, 3.3.2.1), Reports (4.4.1), and Identification (5.1.1).
