About this file
This is a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) document for Aircraft Fire Extinguisher Cartridges (National Stock Number 1377-01-255-2382). The document provides detailed military preservation and packaging requirements for this munitions item, which is controlled by 406 SCMS at Gulfport-Columbus Air Force Base.
The SPI specifies two packing levels: Level A for the most severe worldwide shipment, handling, and storage conditions (including war reserve material, mobilization, and deck loading), and Level B for standard conditions. Level A requires Level B packs to be overboxed in a specified Level A container marked "OVERPACK." The document mandates wrapping items in specified barrier materials (A-A-59135), placing wrapped items in barrier bags (MIL-DTL-117), and cushioning with ASTM D5486 tape and ASTM D4727 filler pads to prevent movement. Up to 36 items may be placed in a single shipping container. Specific container dimensions vary by level: Level A containers measure 10" x 10" x 16", while Level B containers measure 10 3/8" x 10 3/8" x 16 3/4". The document includes requirements for hazard classification certification, compliance with International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM No. 15) regarding debarked and heat-treated wood packaging materials, and detailed palletization procedures for Level B packs using plywood, strapping, and edge protectors with specified dimensions and weight tolerances. All marking requirements must comply with MIL-STD-129 for palletized unit loads of ammunition.
