Scope
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes requirements applicable to metal stock that is ordered and produced in accordance with an Aerospace Material Specification (AMS). Topics include producer requirements, distributor requirements, size and grain orientation nomenclature, and purchaser ordering information to distributors. Requirements of this document have been developed to address titanium and titanium alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys, carbon and alloy steels, and corrosion and heat-resistant alloys.
Rationale
AS6279B incorporates changes to address aluminum alloys and to update definition of a forging (2.2.7), metal stock (2.2.15), documented practices (3.2.1), re-marking requirements (3.3.5.2.2), tolerance requirements (3.3.6.1.1), and restriction on altering ST size (3.3.6.1.2).

Issuing Committee
AMS G Titanium and Refractory Metals Committee
The committee of Titanium, Beryllium, and Refractory Materials, AMS Committee G, is responsible for preparation, revision, review and approval of documents related to aerospace application of these materials. Included are titanium, beryllium, and refractory metallic such as molybdenum, tantalum, and columbium. The committee provides a forum for interchange of experience and ideas among industry representatives, both suppliers and users, along with interested government agencies, to ensure the utility, proper technical content, and industry acceptance of published documents.
