SAE International

SAE International develops technical information used in all areas of motorized transport and related fields worldwide.

Access most up-to-date SAE Standards with IHS

The standards, technical papers and journals published by SAE International formerly known as the Society of Automotive Engineers, are used daily by engineers, R&D, manufacturers, QA/QC, maintenance and testing personnel in the automotive, aerospace, off-highway, government and engineering academia fields.
Topics covered by SAE International:
SAE standards contain detailed production and interoperability guidelines; clarify legal and regulatory grey areas; condense product development cycles; ensure consistency and high quality in manufacturing; and lead the way to maximum performance.
SAE technical papers and new journals present leading edge engineering, R&D and technology developments from events hosted around the globe, covering the latest developments from the world’s leaders in self-propelled vehicles. These peer-reviewed articles provide in-depth information that is supported by test data and validated simulation for real-world applications of technology.
IHS is the most comprehensive source for obtaining SAE’s critical technical information. Only IHS can provide immediate internet access to SAE standards in PDF along with other industry standards from a single platform.
IHS has the flexibility to deliver any configuration of SAE technical information you require – from individual documents for a two-person sales office to enterprise-wide standards collections or any combination in between.

SAE Standards Collection
IHS retains the largest electronic collection of SAE standards, totaling more than 24,000 active, cancelled, non-current, revised and withdrawn standards containing changes from revision to revision for maintenance of aircraft, heavy equipment, and military ground and air vehicles, dating back to 1922.
SAE Aerospace Material Specifications
More than 3,100 active SAE Aerospace Material Specifications (AMS), which are recognized as the authoritative resource for the world’s aerospace and aircraft community. SAE AMS are procurement standards and not design standards.
SAE Aerospace Standards
More than 4,700 Aerospace Standards (AS), Aerospace Recommended Practices (ARP) and Aerospace Information Reports (AIR) are available from IHS. These are the guidelines for the design and production of thousands of aircraft parts and components.
SAE Ground Vehicle Standards – (SAE J Reports)
The full collection of more than 2,600 SAE J Reports cover hundreds of topics relating to the design, manufacture and test of today’s ground vehicles – commercial and consumer - and emerging technologies such as alternative fuels, hybrids, fuel cells, electric vehicles and telematics.
SAE DoD Adopted Standards
More than 3,600 SAE standards have been adopted by the DoD. These are used worldwide by leading commercial and civil aircraft design, manufacture and maintenance organizations along with defense contractors. The SAE DoD adopted standards collection has direct application in research, design engineering, maintenance, purchasing, bidding and logistics for any self-propelled vehicle in military, commercial and civilian use worldwide.
SAE Manuals – Handbook Supplements
These documents provide comprehensive sources of standards information on specialized topics. In many cases, the standards and information contained in these references are not available in any other publication. The collection includes 26 documents with data for:
- Involute splines and inspection
- Piston ring standards
- SAE motor vehicle safety and environmental terminology
- SAE oil filter test procedure
- And many more
SAE Historical Standards
The SAE historical standards subscription is continually updated as revised standards are issued and includes 14,000 SAE, AS,AMS and GV standards and material specifications from the 1922 to the present. The SAE historical standards databases, covering aerospace and ground vehicle applications, include all cancelled, superseded, withdrawn and prior revisions of current documents
SAE Technical Papers
More than 90,000 technical papers published by SAE from 1906 to the present are available from IHS. Each paper brings R&D and applied industry expertise to the most critical topics in the mobility industry today. they provide a constructive review of current technology and conclusions provide by test data or validated simulation. SAE publishes over 2,500 papers each year so vital information on critical topics is always available.
SAE Journals, formerly known as SAE Transactions, are some of the best published work at SAE International, providing long-term application to the engineering community and to society at-large. They contain the best SAE technical papers and research in all areas pertaining to ground vehicle and aerospace engineering technology and process since 2008.
