Scope
This specification covers the requirements for heat-treatment of four classes of steel (see 1.2) and the requirements for furnace equipment, test procedures and information for heat-treating procedures, heat-treating temperatures and material (see 6.11) test procedures. This specification is applicable only to the heat treatment of raw material (see 6.1.1); it does not cover the requirements for the heat treatment of steel parts (see 3.4 and 6.1.2). This specification also describes procedures which, when followed, will produce the desired properties and material qualities within the limitations of the respective alloys tabulated in Tables IA, IB, IC and ID. Alloys other than those specifically covered herein may be heat treated using all applicable requirements of this specification.

Issuing Committee
AMS E Carbon and Low Alloy Steels Committee
The committee of Carbon and Low Alloy Steels, AMS Committee E, shall prepare, coordinate, and revise documents related to carbon and low alloy steels technology, such as steel cleanliness and steel quality assurance sampling, through the participation of metals suppliers, users, and interested government agencies. Committee activities shall provide a forum for the cooperative interchange of ideas and experience of the participants, resulting in the publication of specifications that embody sound, established aerospace industry practices and requirements to serve the suppliers and customers of aerospace materials.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
