This test procedure is intended to apply to hydraulic pump suction filters and strainers used in automotive automatic transmissions that include hydraulic power pumps. The various paragraphs of Section 5 include a variety of tests and alternative tests that are not applicable to all filters and applications, so the engineer must specify which tests are to be performed for a particular application. These test procedures are intended to evaluate filter functional performance characteristics only; durability is not evaluated under this standard. Filter design requirements must be specified by the engineer on the filter assembly drawing, an applicable engineering specification, or summarized on an application data sheet similar to that found in this recommended practice. See Figure 6. Pressure circuit filters, both barrier and system contamination control types, are not covered under this standard. They are similar in design and construction to filters used in many hydraulic and lubricating applications. Testing for pressure filters is covered by the ISO and SAE standards listed in Section 2.

Screw Threads - UNJ Profile, Inch, Controlled Radius Root with Increased Minor Diameter

AS8879E (Current)

9/25/2026

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) specifies the characteristics of screw threads - UNJ profile, inch, series, including a mandatory controlled radius as specified in Table 1 at the root of the external thread. The minor diameter of both external and internal threads provides a basic thread height of .5625H to accommodate the external thread maximum root radius. The following detailed design requirements are included: Screw threads - UNJ basic profile and design profiles. Standard series of diameter-pitch combinations for nominal thread diameters from 0.060 to 6.000 inches. Standard thread classes and form tolerances. Formulae for thread dimensions and tolerances. Method of designating UNJ threads. Tables for selected diameter-pitch combinations for close tolerance mechanical thread applications. Tables for screw thread - UNJ profile thread limit dimensions.

IEEE 1394 Beta PHY Enhancements

AS5643/3 (Current)

9/25/2026

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes guidelines for enhancement to IEEE 1394-2008 Beta (formerly IEEE 1394b) PHYsical (PHY) layer. It encompasses enhancements to the IEEE 1394-2008 Beta PHY to reduce port connection times and increase port connection reliability. Therefore, this document contains extensions/restrictions to “off-the-shelf” IEEE 1394 standards and assumes that the reader already has a working knowledge of IEEE 1394. The enhancements covered in this document include: Detect loss of descrambler synchronization Fast-ReTrain (FRT) Fast Power-on Re-connect (FPR) Fast Connection Tone Debounce (FTD) Programmable invalidCount Bus Reset Cause This document does not identify specific environmental requirements (electromagnetic compatibility, temperature, vibration, etc.); such requirements will be vehicle-specific and even LRU-specific. One should refer to the appropriate sections of MIL-STD-461E for their particular LRU and utilize handbooks such as MIL-HDBK-454A and MIL-HDBK-5400 for guidance. This document is referred to as a “slash sheet” and accompanies the AS5643B base standard.
