This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality, maraging steel in the form of bars, forgings, mechanical tubing, flash-welded rings up to 10.0 inches (254 mm) in diameter or least distance between parallel sides (thickness), and stock of any size for forging or flash-welded rings (see 8.6).
Rationale:
AMS6519F is the result of a Five-Year Review and update of the specification. The revision updates the Title to match the Scope and adds the common name, adds a note on stress corrosion (see 1.2.1), updates composition to require testing for calcium (see Table 1), adds composition reporting information (see 3.1.1), clarifies macrostructure (see 3.5.1 and 8.8), adds pyrometry (see 3.5.3.2), updates exceptions requirements (see 3.5.3.2.1.4, 4.4.4, and 8.7), adds forging stock property option (see 4.4.3), and provides guidance on stock removal (see 8.5).
