Full title and description
SAE AMS7295/5C — Radiographic Film, 3-80. Material specification for a low-contrast, fine-grain industrial radiographic film supplied as cut sheets or rolls for X‑ray and gamma radiography used in nondestructive testing applications.
Abstract
This AMS material specification (AMS7295/5C) defines the physical and performance characteristics, form (sheets or rolls), and intended use of a 3-80 low-contrast, fine-grain radiographic film intended for industrial radiography and nondestructive inspection. The document provides acceptance criteria and required properties for consistent radiographic imaging performance.

Scope
This specification covers one type of low-contrast, fine-grain radiographic film (designated 3-80) in the form of cut sheets or rolls intended for industrial X‑ray and gamma radiography in nondestructive testing. It addresses required film characteristics, formats, and acceptance criteria to ensure reproducible radiographic imaging for inspection purposes.
Key topics and requirements
- Definition of the 3-80 low-contrast, fine-grain radiographic film formulation and base/coat characteristics.
- Acceptable forms and dimensions — cut sheets and rolls for industrial use.
- Performance requirements for sensitivity, granularity, contrast (low-contrast imaging), and physical handling.
- Quality and inspection criteria to support nondestructive testing (radiographic) applications.
- Revision history and applicability notes (documented revisions /5A, /5B, /5C).
Typical use and users
Used by aerospace and industrial NDT (nondestructive testing) laboratories, inspection engineers, quality assurance teams, and suppliers of radiographic film and imaging materials. Typical applications include X‑ray and gamma radiography of welds, castings, and structural components where low-contrast, fine-grain film is required for defect detection.
Related standards
Other parts of the AMS7295 series (examples: AMS7295/1 — Radiographic Film 5-80; AMS7295/3 — Radiographic Film 4-80; AMS7295/5 and subsequent revisions /5A, /5B) are related and define alternate film contrasts/formats within the same family. These AMS documents and other NDT radiography standards (ISO/EN NDT series) are commonly referenced together in procurement and inspection specifications.
