About this file
This document is a detailed specification for three types of anti-exposure flyers' coveralls: CWU-74/P, CWU-86/P, and CWU-87/P. The coveralls are designed to protect military aircrew members from exposure to cold water, wind, spray, and rain, and to prevent hypothermia during flights over water.
The specification covers the classification, materials, construction, testing, and inspection requirements for the coveralls. It provides detailed dimensional tolerances, pattern information, and diagrams. The coveralls must undergo qualification, first article, and conformance inspections. The specification also includes packaging and shelf-life requirements.
The related federal contract opportunity is a pre-solicitation from DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles seeking sources to produce zippers that meet the water-tight requirements in the specification. The solicitation number is SPE1C125RZIPPERS.

2/ The zippers shall be checked for proper function by opening and closing each zipper not less than three times along its full length.
3/ Puckering is evidence of tight tension or gathering of the material. When puckering is evident and is caused by the gathering of the material, the stitching shall be inspected for tight tension and breaking of stitches by exerting normal pull in the lengthwise direction of the stitching, by pulling the material taut to straighten out the seam. Puckering due to the gathering of the material shall be classified and scored as a seaming defect.
4/ A seam shall be considered open whether one side or both sides are open.
4.5.2.2 End item dimensional examination. The end item shall be examined for conformance to the dimensions specified in 3.13 and tables IV through VI, as applicable.
4.5.3 Coverall leakage. Using the apparatus specified in MIL-W-85635 and the procedures specified herein, each of the assembled coveralls shall be tested for conformance to the requirements of 3.14. The water leakage test shall be accomplished in one complete cycle from start to finish without interruption.
a. Fill the reservoir with approximately 30 gallons of clean, fresh water and add 60 milliliters (ml) (¼ cup) of chlorine bleach. The bleach shall be added at the initial filling of the reservoir and at each subsequent refilling. Do not add more than 60 ml (1/4 cup) of bleach for each reservoir full of water. The reservoir shall be drained and the water replaced at least monthly or more often if the water becomes dirty, slimy, dank, or odoriferous.
b. Secure the water leakage inspection apparatus in the horizontal position with the platform open.
c. The garment to be inspected shall be turned inside out with the entrance and relief zippers, as applicable, fully closed. Lay the coverall on the bottom half of the platform, positioning the neck opening to the left and the entrance zipper facing up. Care shall be taken while inserting the coverall in the test apparatus to ensure that the garment is not pinched.
d. Close off the left wrist, neck, and each leg opening with a clamp. The openings shall be folded prior to clamping to avoid leakage at the openings.
e. Extend the right sleeve of the coverall through the opening provided in the side of the inspection apparatus. OPTIONAL STEP: Route 2-inch hook and pile tape loosely around each thigh, just below the crotch, and just above the leg opening, to help separate the legs and facilitate visual inspection. Close the top gate and secure all four latches.
f. Route water hose over the platform hook and place water hose into right sleeve opening. Grasp water hose and wrist seal/sleeve firmly making sure to leave an opening in the sleeve to allow air inside the coverall to escape while filling the coverall with water. While holding hose and sleeve, turn pump on by depressing footswitch and fill coverall until water reaches the shoulder of the coverall sleeve. If the water does not flow from the filling hose within 5 seconds from the time the switch is turned to the “on” position, prime the pump by clicking the switch “off” and “on” several times.
g. Turn the pump off and rotate the inspection apparatus 90º to a vertical position and secure the platform. If necessary, turn the pump on again and refill the coverall to within 6 inches of the right sleeve wrist opening.
h. Turn the pump off, remove hose, and clamp off right sleeve wrist opening in a similar manner as described in 4.5.3d.
i. Rotate the inspection platform back to the horizontal (front facing upwards) and lock in place. The coverall should be firm to the touch, like a well-inflated helium balloon, not gelatinous or wobbly like an under inflated helium balloon.
Correct Under-inflated
j. While the inspection platform is in the horizontal position (front of coverall facing upwards), inspect back of the coverall (underside) for leaks, including areas under the thigh and ankle securing fastener tapes by temporarily loosening the hook and pile closures. If water appears on the coverall surface, blot area dry with an absorbent material, such as a paper towel, and observe whether the water reappears. If water does not reappear within 10 seconds, it will not be considered a leak.
k. If the water reappears, mark the suspect area with a wax marking pencil for repair. Do not use any other kind of pencil for marking. If minor leakage is attributable to the stitched seams exposed on the outside perimeter of the zipper area, it is acceptable to apply a thin layer of a neoprene base adhesive to the inside of the rubber covered zipper tape.
l. Rotate the platform 180 to the horizontal position again so that the front of the suit is at the bottom closest to the splash pan. Inspect the front of the coverall and slide fastener box stitching near seal block for any water leakage. If water appears and drips within 10 seconds, mark suspect area for patching using only a wax marking pencil.
m. After marking all suspect areas for repair, rotate platform back to original horizontal position and lock in place. Remove sleeve clamp from right wrist and slowly drain water from the coverall.
n. Open platform, remove clamps, hook and pile tape (if used), and drain any remaining water.
o. Turn coverall right side out.
p. Fully dry coverall. When using a dryer, set dryer at lowest temperature setting and dry coverall for a maximum of 20 minutes. When air drying, hang the coverall on a wooden hanger and allow to air dry. After hanging for a maximum of 4 hours, check coverall for dryness.
q. Ensure that all areas requiring patching are clearly marked.
r. Determine reparability of a coverall by patching (see 3.12.1).
5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or order (see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these personnel need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the Inventory Control Point’s packaging activity within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or within the military service’s system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the managing Military Department’s or Defense Agency’s automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible packaging activity.
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. The coveralls are military unique because they are used for continuous wear by military aircrew members on flights over water, in the event of immersion into water.
The coveralls are intended to protect the wearer from exposure to cold water, wind, spray, and rain, and to protect against hypothermia. The coveralls are intended to be used in conjunction with waterproof wrist seals and socks fitted on an individual basis as applicable (see 3.6.1, 3.6.2, and 3.6.3).
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the following:
a. Title, number, and date of this specification, including any amendments.
