- Content
- This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality alloy steel in the form of bars, forgings 100 square inches (645 cm2) and under in cross-sectional area, and forging stock of any size.
- Content
- AMS6532K addresses inconsistencies that have been identified with the product as currently defined. The revision limits the carbon content (see Title and Table 1), requires approval of specific melting practices (see 3.2.1 and 3.2.2), clarifies macrostructure requirements (see 3.5.1.1 and 8.7), updates aging time consistent with industry practice (see Table 4), updates conditions that require protection (see 5.3), and limits the use of prior revisions (see 8.6).
