This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality, corrosion-resistant steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings, and forging stock.AMS5618K is the result of a Five-Year Review and update of the specification. The revision prohibits unauthorized exceptions (see 3.7, 4.4.4, 5.2.1.1, and 8.7), updates composition testing and reporting (see 3.1 and 3.1.1), adds the option to hardness test wire (see 3.3.2 and 8.3), removes longitudinal microstructure requirements (refer to Rev J 3.4.1.2 and 4.3.4) and updates (see 4.2.1 and 4.2.2), revises decarburization evaluation requirements (see 3.4.4.4), adds guidance on stock removal (see 8.5), and allows the use of prior revisions (see 8.6).
