The SAE system uses a basic four-digit system to designate the chemical composition of carbon and alloy steels. The first digit (1), of this designation indicates a carbon steel; i.e., carbon steels comprise 1xxx groups in the SAE-AISI system and are subdivided into four categories due to the variance in certain fundamental properties among them.
For many years, certain grades of carbon and alloy steels have been designated by a four-digit AISE/SAE numerical index system that identified the grades according to standard chemical compositions. Since the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) ceased writing material specifications, the relationship between AISI and grade designations has been discontinued. From point of edition of the 1995 Iron and Steel Society (ISS) Strip Steel Manual, the four-digit designations are referred to solely as SAE Designations.
The following article gives information on lists of standards relating to the following material categories:
For more information on the AISI-SAE designation system see our related article: Introduction to the AISI-SAE Designation System.
The list of standards below covers a wide range of materials and applications a few of which are:
