This specification covers established manufacturing tolerances applicable to sheet, strip, and plate of nickel, nickel alloys, and cobalt alloys ordered to inch/pound dimensions. These tolerances apply to all conditions, unless otherwise noted. The term excl is used to apply only to the higher figure of a specified range.

Where the terms “nickel”, “nickel-copper”, “nickel-chromium”, “nickel-molybdenum”, “nickelmolybdenum- chromium”, and “cobalt” are used without qualification, they refer to both non-heattreatable and heat-treatable alloys as applicable, unless otherwise noted.

MAM 2262 is the metric version of this AMS.
