Numbering System for SAE Standards

All SAE Standards begin with letters. Ground Vehicle Standards start with J; Aerospace Standards start with AS, AMS, AIR and ARP. Standards often have various iterations and updates in different years.

SAE Ground Vehicle Standards are also called J-Papers or J-Reports because the standard numbers begin with J. The year of the standard is inside its number. For example: 

• J585_200802 Tail Lamps
• J513_199901 Refrigeration Tube Fittings

 "Current" and "Historical" standards: The number of the standard changes with the year it was released, but the title does not.
