About this file
This document is a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) for a Rail-Pusher Set with National Stock Number 1440-00-462-6353 AH. The SPI provides detailed packaging, handling, and shipping requirements for a military asset, specifically focusing on wood packaging material (WPM) compliance with international phytosanitary standards. Key requirements include constructing wooden components from debarked wood, applying heat treatment (56°C/133°F for 30 minutes), and obtaining certification from an accredited agency recognized by the American Lumber Standards Committee.
The document includes comprehensive packaging specifications, such as specific bolt placement, washer usage, and handling precautions. The Rail-Pusher Set weighs 850 lbs, with dimensions of 305 1/4" length, 24 1/2" width, and 15" depth. The packaging instruction is designed for Level A protection, which covers the most severe worldwide shipment, handling, and storage conditions, including war reserve material, mobilization, strategic and theater deployment, open storage, and deck loading scenarios. The SPI provides detailed notes on assembly, bolt countersinking, diagonal placement, and careful handling to prevent damage to the item.
