Army Explosives Safety Conference
The Army Explosives Safety Conference will be held June 21-23 at Redstone Arsenal, AL.
The conference will provide information on explosives safety, new ammo technologies and
processes, in-theater ammo issues, HERO (hazards of electromagnetic radiation to ordnance),
and ammo safety training. The conference is free and open to all military and federal employees.
To register for the conference, go to:
M1000 HET Semitrailer
Steering Link Bolt
Use NSN 5305-00-719-5240 to get a new
steering link bolt for your M1000 HET
semitrailer. It replaces NSN 5305-00-719-
5239, which is shown as Items 12 and 36
in Fig 31 of TM 9-2330-381-24P (Jun 09).
You’ll also need a different self-locking
nut to secure those new bolts. NSN 5310-
00-877-5795 is the replacement for NSN
5310-00-902-9369, which is shown as
Items 15 and 26. Make a note until the
TM is updated.
New NSN for M113A2 FOV
St±ring linkage coTer pin
Get a new cotter pin for the steering linkage on your M113A2 FOV with NSN 5315-01-359-
1451. NSN 5315-00-816-1794, which is shown as Item 10 in Fig 41, Item 3 in Fig 166, Item 18 in
Fig 167, and Item 4 in Fig 168 of TM 9-2350-261-24P (Aug 05), is a terminal item. Also note that
the old NSN brought 100 cotter pins. The replacement NSN brings only one. The old cotter pin
is shown in numerous other places throughout the TM. Use the replacement NSN in each of
these instances, too.
need some glue?
Sometimes the only way to hold stuff together is with some glue. So what to use? Get a package
of 12, 3-gram tubes of ethyl cyanoacrylate, also known as Super Glue®, with NSN 8040-01-024-
6988. It’s good for bonding both rubber and plastic to metal. Or, if you’re looking for something
that doesn’t dry quite as fast, try NSN 8040-00-777-0631. That gets a two-part epoxy kit for
general-purpose bonding, sealing and repairing of metal, wood, rubber and plastic.
M2A2/M3A2, M2A2/M3A2 ODS
Bradley Decals
Take note if you want to order one of the two ISU
decals shown as Items 72 and 73 in Fig 126 of TM
9-2350-284-24P-2 (Jul 02). If you order Item 72, you’ll
get Item 73 and vice versa. Switch the information for
both until the TM can be updated.
M871R-Series Pneumatic Wheel Assembly
To get the pneumatic wheel assembly for the
40-ton medium heavy equipment transporter,
use NSN 2530-01-571-7223. This NSN replaces
the parts info shown for Item 1 in Fig 19 of TM
5-2330-325-14-P.
M915 FOV Air Filter NSNs
Ever wonder if the air filters for the M915 family of vehicles are one size fits all? Well, they’re
not. Eyeball the following chart to get the air filters you need for the models in your unit.
M871R-Series Wheel Rim Assembly
To get a hub-piloted one-piece wheel as-
sembly, 11R x 22.5-in tire, for the M871R
(RESET) 22 ½-ton semitrailer, use NSN 2530-
01-584-7914.

Use NSN 1010-01-587-7637 to get
the rear evaporator coil for the
M1117 armored security vehicle
(ASV).
This NSN replaces the parts
info shown as Item 30 in Fig 225 of
TM 9-2320-307-24P.
M1117 ASV Hawker Battery
The AGM Hawker Armasafe Plus battery, NSN 6140-01-485-1472, is now approved for use in
the armored security vehicle (ASV). The battery that’s currently used in the vehicle and shown
in the TMs is still OK, too. Just
don’t mix it
with the Hawker battery. Remember,
all
batteries
installed in the vehicle need to be the same type.
