About this file

This is a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) document for the packaging and preservation of an aircraft rudder component. The document provides detailed specifications for both serviceable and unserviceable preservation methods per MIL-STD-2073, with two packaging levels defined: Level A for domestic shipments (44.531 cubic feet gross, 348 pounds gross weight) and Level B for overseas/FMS shipments (44.531 cubic feet gross, 348 pounds gross weight). Both levels utilize ASTM D6251 specifications with design fragility rating of 110 for each.

The packaging construction requires specific components including strapping, saddles, wrapping materials, cushioning felt, bracing, nuts, washers, bolts, carriage bolts, and mounting blocks secured with nails or staples per ASTM F1667, and adhesive A-A-59692 Type II. The document includes detailed dimensional drawings and assembly instructions, specifying cushioning attachment methods and wrapping requirements to prevent direct contact between the bare item and cushioning materials. Critical compliance requirements include adherence to International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM No. 15) for wood packaging material, requiring all wooden components to be constructed from debarked, heat-treated lumber (56°C/133°F for 30 minutes minimum) with certification by an American Lumber Standards Committee-accredited agency. Marking per IAW MIL-STD-129 is required, including SPI number notation and center of balance designation on the identification side of the container.
