PALLET UNIT

THE PALLET UNIT SHOWN ABOVE DEPICTS THE PALLETIZATION OF BOX 4.

PALLETIZATION OF BOX SIZES 1 THROUGH 3 CAN ALSO BE ACCOMPLISHED

IN A SIMILAR MANNER. SEE THE DETAILS ON PAGES 3 AND 4.

GENERAL NOTES

A. THIS DOCUMENT HAS BEEN PREPARED AND ISSUED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH AR740-1 AND AUGMENTS TM 743-

200-1 (CHAPTER 5).

B. DIMENSIONS, CUBE AND WEIGHT OF A PALLET UNIT WILL

VARY SLIGHTLY DEPENDING UPON THE ACTUAL DIMEN-

SIONS OF THE BOXES AND THE WEIGHT OF THE SPECIF-

IC ITEM BEING UNITIZED.

C. WHEN ASSEMBLING A PALLET UNIT, CARE SHALL BE

TAKEN TO INSURE THAT BOXES AND FILLER ASSEM-

BLIES ARE EVELY ALIGNED HORIZONTALLY AND VERTI-

CALLY SO THAT THE SIDES AND ENDS OF THE PALLET

DO NOT EXCEED A 1/2” TOLERANCE.

D. INSTALL EACH HORIZONTAL STRAP TO BE LOCATED AS

SHOWN. HORIZONTAL STRAPS MUST BE TENSIONED

AND SEALED AFTER THE APPLICATION OF TIEDOWN

STRAPS.

E. INSTALL EACH TIEDOWN STRAP TO PASS UNDER THE

DECK/STRINGER BOARDS OF THE PALLET AND TO BE

LOCATED AS SHOWN. TIEDOWN STRAPS WILL NOT BE

APPLIED UNTIL THE HORIZONTAL STRAPS HAVE BEEN

TENSIONED AND SEALED.

F. THE FOLLOWING AMC DRAWINGS ARE APPLICABLE FOR

OUTLOADING AND STORAGE OF THE ITEMS COVERED BY

THIS APPENDIX.

G. IF LESS THAN 36 BOXES ARE TO BE LOADED ON A PAL-

LET, IT SHALL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY SUBSTITUTING

FILLER ASSEMBLIES, AS DEPICTED ON PAGE 4 FOR

OMITTED BOXES. IF MORE THAN SIX BOXES ARE TO BE

OMITTED FROM THE PALLET UNIT, IT CAN BE ACCOM-

PLISHED BY USING A COMBINATION OF OMITTING A

COMPLETE LAYER OF BOXES AND SUBSTITUTING FILLER

ASSEMBLIES AS NECESSARY, TO SATISFY THE REDUCED

QUANTITY OF BOXES TO BE UNITIZED.

H. ALL FILLER ASSEMBLIES WILL BE POSITIONED IN THE

TOP LAYER OR LAYERS OF THE CENTER STACK OF A

UNIT LOAD.

J. A PLUS-OR-MINUS 1/4" IS ALLOWED ON OVERALL DIMEN-

SIONS OF A FILLER ASSEMBLY, SPACER ASSEMBLY OR

ANY OTHER DUNNAGE ASSEMBLY. HOWEVER, SIMILAR

PIECES IN AN ASSEMBLY MUST BE WITHIN 1/8” OF THE

SAME DIMENSION.

K. DIMENSIONAL LUMBER SPECIFIED THROUGHOUT THIS

PROCEDURAL DRAWING IS OF NOMINAL SIZE UNLESS

OTHERWISE SPECIFIED. FOR EXAMPLE, 1” X 4” MATERI-

AL IS ACTUALLY ¾” THICK BY 3-1/2” WIDE AND 2” X 4” MA-

TERIAL IS ACTUALLY 1-1/2” THICK BY 3-1/2” WIDE.

L. WHEN LOADING BOXES, THEY ARE TO BE POSITIONED

TIGHT AGAINST AND FLUSH OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE

TOP OF THE SIDE AND END GATES. EXCESS SLACK CAN

BE ELIMINATED BY INSERTING APPROPRIATELY SIZED

PIECE OF PLYWOOD OR 1” X 4” MATERIAL STAPLED UN-

DER TIEDOWN STRAPS WHEN BOXES ARE NOT FLUSH

WITH OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE SIDE OR END GATES.

M. THE UNITIZATION PROCEDURES DEPICTED HEREIN MAY

ALSO BE USED FOR UNITIZING BULK EXPLOSIVES ITEMS

IN FIBERBOARD BOXES PROVIDED THE BOX PACK DOES

NOT VARY FROM WHAT IS DELINEATED HEREIN. THE

EXPLOSIVE CLASSIFICATION OF OTHER ITEMS MAY BE

DIFFERENT THAN WHAT IS SHOWN.

N. CONVERSION TO METRIC EQUIVALENTS: DIMENSIONS

WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT ARE EXPRESSED IN INCHES,

AND WEIGHTS ARE EXPRESSED IN POUNDS. WHEN

NECESSARY, THE METRIC EQUIVALENTS MAY BE COM-

PUTED ON THE BASIS OF ONE INCH EQUALS 25.4MM AND

ONE POUND EQUALS 0.454 KG.

O. THE STYLE 1 PALLET DELINEATED IN THE DETAIL AT

LEFT (OR STYLE 1A PALLET FOR BOX SIZE 1 THRU 3)

NEED NOT HAVE CHAMFERS OR STRAP SLOTS AS SPEC-

IFIED WITHIN MILITARY SPECIFICATION MIL-P-15011

WHEN USED FOR THE UNITIZATION OF ITEMS COVERED

BY THIS DOCUMENT.

P. ALL WOODEN DUNNAGE SHALL BE PRESERVATIVE TREATED IN ACCORDANCE

WITH THE PROCEDURES SPECIFIED IN MIL-DTL-2427 FOR CLEATED WOODEN

BOXES. IF THE DUNNAGE CONSISTS OF MORE THAN ONE COMPONENT, IT

MUST BE ASSEMBLED PRIOR TO TREATMENT. THE LETTERS PA DENOTING
