RATIONALE
b. Add dimensions related to top and bottom sealing beads (Tables 2C and 2D). The top seal is critical to recovery type
cooling systems.
c. Change table format from Min/Max to Nominal/Tolerance to assist readers when building CAD models.
d. Revise Large cap and neck dimensions to correspond with supplier recommendations.
1 . SCOPE
This SAE Standard was developed primarily for passenger car and truck application, but may be used in marine, industrial,
and similar applications.
1 .1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide dimensions for the different pressure ratings of bayonet type radiator pressure
caps and filler necks. Use of these dimensions will prevent the use of a high-pressure rated cap on low-pressure systems
for the small and medium size applications (see Tables 1 and 2 and Figures 1 to 3).
This document will allow use of a low-pressure rated cap on a nominal high-pressure system.
