Description / Abstract:
The scope of this Recommended Practice is to delineate groups of
materials for which there is considerable fabrication and operating
experience in the sea water environment. In addition, some of the
more promising materials for possible future applications are
covered.
Purpose
The purpose of this Recommended Practice is to define materials
for use in fluid systems of marine vehicles, including submersibles
and advanced surface craft. This report is more particularly
directed to the designer of fluid power and piping systems on board
marine vehicles.
