Talk:SAE

Standard American Equivalent
editI put this in, then took it out. See talk page on wikipedia. This definition of SAE is occasionally used, but I couldn't find an official source for it. It appears to be a back-ronym for a mis-use of the term to mean American-style units (inch-pound) vs. metric units. Nerfer (talk) 04:08, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
