NSN

TITLE: PACKING FOR LIGHT BOXES

DEFINITION: LIGHT BOXES ARE PACKING BOXES WHICH CONTAIN A LESSER QUANTITY

OR SMALLER COUNT OF THE ITEM PACKED THAN REQUIRED BY THE APPLICABLE

PACKAGING DRAWING.

1. VOIDS IN LIGHT BOXES SHALL BE FILLED WITH APPROPRIATE MATERIALS

SO AS TO HOLD THE CONTENTS AS SECURELY AS WOULD BE EXPECTED IN A FULL

BOX. PARAGRAPHS 2 & 3 ARE EXAMPLES.

2. INTERIOR CONTAINERS WHICH ARE SELF-SUPPORTING, E.G. SPIRAL WRAPPED

FIBER CONTAINERS, MAY BE USED WITHOUT FILLING. PACKING BOX FILLERS SHALL

BE USED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NORMAL PACKING INSTRUCTIONS.

3. INTERIOR CONTAINERS WHICH ARE NOT CONSIDERED SELF-SUPPORTING MAY BE

USED IF BRACED INTERNALLY. ALTERNATIVELY, THE EMPTY INTERIOR CONTAINERS

MAY BE ELIMINATED AND DUNNAGING OR BRACING WITH WOOD, PLYWOOD, OR EQUIVALENT

WATER-RESISTANT MATERIAL MAY BE USED.

4. FILLERS OR DUNNAGE MATERIALS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE MOISTURE LEVELS OR WATER

RESISTANT REQUIREMENTS OF FILLER MATERIALS NORMALLY USED WITH THE ITEM

BEING PACKED.

5, THE WEIGHT OF LIGHT BOXES SHALL NOT EXCEED THAT OF THE NORMAL PACKED

BOX.

6. WHEN THE LIGHT EXTERIOR BOX CONTAINS 50 PERCENT OR MORE OF THE STANDARD QUANTITY, OR IF THE EXTERIOR CONTAINER IS MADE FROM A MATERIAL SUCH THAT THE SIZE OF THE

CONTAINER CANNOT BE READILY MODIFIED (E.G. METAL OR PLASTIC CONTAINERS, FIBER DRUMS), THEN THE EXTEROR CONTAINER SPECIFIED ON THE APPLICABLE PACKING DRAWING MUST BE

USED AND VOIDS APPROPRIATELY FILLED PER NOTES 1 THROUGH 5 ABOVE. IF THE CONTAINER IS ALREADY MARKED WITH POP CERTIFICATION SYMBOLS OR IS BEING PACKAGED TO A VALID POP REPORT, THEN THE EXISTING MARK (SHOWING FULL CERTIFICATION WEIGHT) SHALL BE MARKED

ON THE PACKAGE. THE SHIPPER/PACKER OF A LIGHT BOX IS RESPONSIBLE TO INSURE THAT

POP CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS OF CFR 49 ARE MET PRIOR TO SHIPMENT.

DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A.

APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE;

DISTRIBUTION IS UNLIMITED.

7. WHEN THE LIGHT EXTERIOR BOX CONTAINS LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE

STANDARD QUANTITY AND THE SIZE OF THE EXTERIOR CONTAINER CAN BE

MODIFIED (E.G. WOOD BOX, FIBERBOARD BOX), THEN THE SIZE OF THE EXTERIOR

CONTAINER MAY BE REDUCED TO CONFORM TO THE NUMBER OF INTERIOR

CONTAINERS TO BE PACKED USING THE SAME MATERIAL AS THE STANDARD

EXTERIOR PACK (I.E. TYPE, GRADE, CLASS, ETC., OF APPROPRIATE SPECIFICATIONS).

WHENEVER POSSIBLE, THE STANDARD EXTERIOR CONTAINER SHOULD BE UTILIZED SINCE

REDUCED SIZE LIGHT BOXES CANNOT BE ADAPTED TO THE STANDARD UNITIZATION

CONFIGURATION AND THE USE OF A REDUCED SIZE BOX WILL REQUIRE A NEW PERFORMANCE

ORIENTED PACKAGING CERTIFICATION MARK. THE SHIPPER/PACKER OF A LIGHT BOX IS

RESPONSIBLE TO INSURE THAT POP CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS OF CFR 49 ARE MET

PRIOR TO SHIPMENT.

8. WHEN A LIGHT INTERIOR PACKAGE CONTAINS LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE

STANDARD QUANTITY, THE PACKAGE SPECIFIED ON THE APPLICABLE PACKAGING

DRAWING MUST BE USED AND VOIDS APPROPRIATELY FILLED PER NOTES 1

THROUGH 5 ABOVE.

9. WHEN A LIGHT INTERIOR PACKAGE CONTAINS LESS THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE

STANDARD QUANTITY, THE SIZE OF THE INTERIOR PACKAGE AND BARRIER BAG AS

APPLICABLE MAY BE REDUCED TO CONFORM TO THE NUMBER OF UNITS PACKAGED

USING THE SAME MATERIAL AS THE STANDARD PACKAGE (I.E. TYPE, CLASS, GRADE,

ETC. OF THE APPROPRIATE SPECIFICATION). WHEN ITEMS ARE PACKAGED IN TRAYS,

LIGHT TRAYS MAY BE USED ONLY IF THE INTEGRITY OF THE TRAY AS A UNIT CAN BE

MAINTAINED. ITEMS SHALL BE DISTRIBUTED AROUND THE TRAY TO MAINTAIN ITS

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY AND TO EQUALLY DISTRIBUTE THE WEIGHT OF THE ITEMS.

10. FOR MARKINGS, SEE APPLICABLE PACKING AND MARKING DRAWING FOR THE

NSN BEING PACKED. FOR LIGHT BOX MARKING REQUIREMENTS SEE DRAWING 12982865.
