Description / Abstract:
1. Scope - This SAE Standard is intended to establish uniform methods
of testing SAE J844 tubing
and fitting assemblies as used in automotive air brake systems.
This document also establishes minimum qualifications for tensile and
pressure capabilities,
vibrational durability under cyclic temperatures, serviceability, and
fitting compatibility
requirements. The specific tests and performance criteria applicable
to the tubing are set forth in
SAE J844.
NOTE - The test values contained in this document are for test
purposes only. For environmental and
usage limitations see SAE J844. Fittings - A type of fitting for use
with SAE J844 nonmetallic
tubing is included in SAE J246; however, it is not intended to
restrict or preclude the use of
other designs of fittings that comply with this document.
