- This coding system is intended to provide a convenient means of identifying the various tube, pipe, hydraulic hose type and hose fittings, not intended for use in aircraft and of transmitting technical or engineering information relating to them wherever drawings or other pictorial media may not be readily available. The code has been kept flexible to permit expansion to cover new fitting categories or styles and, if the need develops, the inclusion of additional materials. The system is also compatible with automatic data processing equipment.It is not intended that this code should supersede established systems or means of identification. Therefore, it should be the prerogative of the user to apply the code which best satisfies his requirements.
- Content
- This revision to SAE J846 is to add fitting type codes and fitting shape codes used in SAE J1754-2 and SAE J1754-3 for ordering information. Added a new Table 9 to separate the hose fitting attachment type from the descriptions in Tables 6A and 6B and removed the redundant codes. All codes removed from Tables 6A and 6B are listed in Appendix B until all other standards that use the SAE J846 nomenclature can be revised. Revised SAE J1926 codes to remove the relationship of ISO11926 and made other miscellaneous description improvements to SAE J846.
