About this file
This document is a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) for a shaped charge item with National Stock Number 1377-01-318-5645, controlled by 406 SCMS at Gulag-Hill AFB. The SPI specifies military preservation and packing requirements using a two-level system: Level A employs ASTM D6880 standard with 4 cubic feet gross volume and 35 pounds gross weight, while Level B uses ASTM D6880 with 4 cubic feet gross volume and 35 pounds gross weight. Container interior dimensions for Level A are 38 inches length by 9 3/4 inches width by 7 1/2 inches depth, and for Level B are 38 inches length by 9 3/4 inches width by 7 1/2 inches depth. The container exterior dimensions for Level A are 41 inches by 12 3/4 inches by 10 1/2 inches, and for Level B are 41 inches by 12 3/4 inches by 10 1/2 inches.
Packaging materials include steel strapping, structural support, desiccant, humidity indicator, barrier bags, cushioning, masking tape, and rail supports. Construction must comply with MIL-STD-2073-1 for cleaning and drying, with no preservative applied. Marking follows IAW MIL-STD-129, including special markings for SPI number F01-318-5645, proper shipping name designation as "Charges, Shaped, Flexible, Linear, UN0237," and UN PDP marking "4C1/Y18/S/xx USA/DOD/AF70." Critical construction notices mandate that wooden containers use debarked, heat-treated lumber conforming to ISPM No. 15 standards, battens are required whenever two or more boards form the top, bottom, or sides, and staples are prohibited for assembly. The bottom panel must be secured with wood screws conforming to FF-S-111D, Type I, Style 2S or equivalent. The instruction includes three munition notices addressing repackaging requirements, hazard classification mandates, and palletization standards IAW MIL-STD-1660 for ammunition and explosives.
