Description / Abstract:
Form
This standard describes the accepted methods used for preparing
aerospace sealant test specimens for qualification and quality
conformance or acceptance testing. AS5127/1 and AS5127/2 are to be
used in conjunction with this document and the applicable AMS
specifications.
Application
This standard is intended to be used with AMS specifications or
other materials specifications which govern the procurement of
aerospace sealants.
All test procedures and associated test materials designated in
this standard were adopted from current military and consensus
material specifications for sealing compounds. Cross-references for
equivalent test materials may be obtained using documents such as
the SAE AMS Index or the ASTM Metals Alloys in the Unified
Numbering Systems reference manuals.
Safety - Hazardous Materials
While the materials, methods, applications, and processes
described or referenced in this standard may involve the use of
hazardous materials, this standard does not address the hazards
which may be involved in such use. It is the sole responsibility of
the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and proper use of any
hazardous materials and to take necessary precautionary measures to
ensure the health and safety of all personnel involved. Refer to
the specific product Materials Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) or Safety
Data Sheet (SDS) for health and safety information.
