Full title and description
SAE AMS5626E — Steel, Tool, High Speed Bars and Forgings. Material specification covering the T1 (UNS T12001) high‑speed tool steel furnished as bars, forgings and forging stock for applications requiring high wear resistance and high density; the document was cancelled/withdrawn effective January 1, 1997.
Abstract
This short AMS material specification defines a high‑speed tool steel (T1 / UNS T12001) in product forms such as bars and forgings, specifies chemical and physical conditions, heat‑treatment/tempering conditions, surface and mechanical requirements, and intended use for parts requiring wear resistance (service temperatures referenced up to about 900 °F / 482 °C in descriptive abstracts). The AMS5626E release is recorded as cancelled/withdrawn in January 1997.
General information
- Status: Cancelled / Withdrawn (effective January 1, 1997).
- Publication date: 1997 (AMS5626E recorded 01‑Jan‑1997).
- Publisher: SAE International (Society of Automotive Engineers).
- ICS / categories: 77 (Metallurgy) — relevant subcategories include 77.140 (Iron and steel products), 77.140.35 (Tool steels), 77.140.60 (Steel bars and rods) and 77.140.85 (Iron and steel forgings).
- Edition / version: AMS5626E (edition E, 1997).
- Number of pages: 1 (single‑page material specification record).
Scope
Specifies a high‑speed/tool alloy (designated T1, UNS T12001) in the form of bars, forgings and forging stock for aerospace and related applications. The scope text and product designation indicate use where wear resistance and high density are required rather than high oxidation resistance; descriptive summaries note applicability up to roughly 900 °F (482 °C). This AMS edition was cancelled in January 1997.
Key topics and requirements
- Material designation and alloy identity: T1 (UNS T12001) high‑speed steel (chemical composition and grade limits typically defined).
- Product forms: bars, forgings and forging stock (available surface and finish conditions described).
- Physical conditions and heat treatment: permitted conditions such as as‑forged, annealed, normalized, normalized & tempered, quenched & tempered (common AMS/AMS‑S practices).
- Mechanical/property requirements and allowable service temperature guidance (wear resistance and strength expectations for high‑speed tool steel).
- Certification, marking and identification requirements typical of AMS material specs (material test reports and traceability).
- Historical note: relationship to older military specification MIL‑S‑5626 and later related AMS/AMS‑S documents.
Typical use and users
Used by aerospace and defense procurement, manufacturers of tooling and wear‑resistant components, metal service centers, heat‑treaters and forging houses that supply bars and forging stock for flight hardware and industrial tool applications. Engineers and quality managers consult the AMS for material acceptance, certification and procurement language — noting that this particular AMS edition is cancelled and users typically reference superseding or alternate AMS/industry specifications.
Related standards
Historically linked to MIL‑S‑5626 (military predecessor); related and later AMS documents covering like products include AMS‑S‑5626 series and other AMS material specifications for chrome‑moly (AISI 4140 / related) steels and aerospace forging/bar stock (examples: SAE AMS6382, AMS6349, and later AMS‑S‑5626 revisions). Users should consult current AMS/SAE indices for active replacements.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: SAE AMS5626E is an SAE aerospace material specification titled "Steel, Tool, High Speed Bars and Forgings" that defines the T1 (UNS T12001) high‑speed tool steel in bar and forging forms; the AMS5626E record is shown as cancelled/withdrawn effective January 1, 1997.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers material designation, permitted product forms (bars, forgings, forging stock), physical and surface conditions, heat‑treatment/tempering practices and acceptance requirements for the T1 high‑speed tool steel intended for wear‑resistant parts.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Aerospace and defense procurement/specification engineers, material suppliers, heat‑treaters, forging shops and service centers that supply or qualify tool/high‑speed steels for aerospace or industrial tooling applications.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: AMS5626E is cancelled/withdrawn (effective January 1, 1997). Users should consult SAE/AMS indices or national standards libraries for the active replacement or equivalent AMS/AMS‑S specifications (see related AMS‑S‑5626 series and other AMS documents).
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — AMS5626 has a revision history (A → B → C → D → E) and is historically connected to earlier MIL‑S‑5626 military specifications; related AMS/AMS‑S documents cover similar materials and were issued subsequently.
