Description / Abstract:
This SAE Recommended Practice applies to flywheels and
flywheel-starter ring gear assemblies used with internal combustion
engines of spark ignition and diesel type. Engine sizes are those
capable of using SAE No. 6 through SAE No. 00 size flywheel
housings.
Purpose
This document is intended to provide a uniform test procedure
for flywheel assemblies to determine the rotative speeds at which
they will either burst or withstand a specified limiting speed.
