AMSHow AMS Works, with a Quick Reference

Drawings and purchase orders for aircraft and spacecraft parts often show numbers such as "AMS 5643" or "AMS 2759/3". These are specifications issued by the U.S.-based SAE International, calledAerospace Material Specifications. This page explains how to read the numbers and summarizes the 50 process specs and 130 material specs you meet in machining. Titles, revisions, and statuses were checked against public pages such as SAE's; the text of the specifications is not reproduced.

?What AMS is

Technical committees and their scope

CommitteeScope
AMS BFinishes Processes and Fluids CommitteeProcess technologies such as plating, brazing, coatings, and compounds. This committee also issues pyrometry AMS2750, heat treatment of steel parts AMS2759, the list of test methods AMS2350, nickel plating AMS-QQ-N-290, and electroless nickel AMS-C-26074.[12][13][14][15][16]
AMS DNonferrous Alloys CommitteeNonferrous metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and copper.[17][18]
AMS ECarbon and Low Alloy Steels CommitteeCarbon and low-alloy steels, plus steel cleanliness, quality assurance sampling, and similar topics. Heat treatment of steel raw material, AMS-H-6875, also belongs to this committee.[11][19]
AMS FCorrosion and Heat Resistant Alloys CommitteeCorrosion- and heat-resistant steels such as stainless steel, and heat-resistant alloys such as nickel-base alloys and special steels.[10]
AMS GTitanium and Refractory Metals CommitteeTitanium, and refractory metals such as beryllium, molybdenum, tantalum, and columbium (niobium).[20][21]
AMS KNon Destructive Methods and Processes CommitteeNondestructive testing: penetrant, magnetic particle, X-ray, ultrasonic, eddy current, and others.[22][9]
AMS JAircraft Maintenance Chemicals and Materials CommitteeMaintenance chemicals for airframes: cleaners, disinfectants, paint strippers, and the like.[23]
AMS P, AMS P17, and AMS CEPolymeric Materials CommitteePolymer Matrix CompositesElastomers Committee1 source, for referencePolymer materials. AMS P17 (Polymer Matrix Composites): composite materials such as prepreg, fibers, resins, adhesives, and core materials. AMS CE (Elastomers Committee): rubber and sealing materials.[24][25]
AMS AMFormally established in 2015 at the request of the FAA. However, the first additive manufacturing material specification, AMS4999, was issued in 2002 by AMS G.[26]
AMEC1 source, for referenceFounded in January 1972 as the Aerospace Heat Treat Committee; in July 1974 it was renamed and its scope widened to aerospace metallic materials and processes in general. It joined the SAE Aerospace Materials Division in 1977. It writes new metal material and process specifications, investigates common problems, and runs round-robin tests.[27][28]

Material specifications (130)

A material specification is a purchase specification that defines, in one document, which alloy is supplied in what form and in what condition, along with chemical composition, mechanical properties, tests, and acceptance criteria. Even for the same alloy, numbers differ by bar, plate, or forging, and by condition such as annealed or solution treated. Here we have collected the numbers whose sources were checked on Kezuriba's material pages. For composition, strength, and machinability, see each material's page.
