Explanation
R
Applied to repair parts (assemblies and
components ) which are considered
economically reparable at direct and
general support maintenance levels.
When the maintenance capability to
repair these items does not exist, they
are normally disposed of at the GS
level. When supply considerations dic-
tate, some of these spare parts may be
listed for automatic return to supply
for depot level repair as set forth in
AR 710-50. When so listed, they will
be replaced by supply on an exchange
basis.
s Repair parts and assemblies which are
economically reparable at DSU and
GSU activities and which normally
are furnished by supply on an ex-
change basis. When items are deter-
mined by a GSU to be uneconomically
reparable, they will be evacuated to a
depot for evaluation and analysis be-
fore final disposition.
T
High dollar value recoverable repair parts
which are subject to special handling
and are issued on an exchange basis.
Such repair parts normally are re-
paired or overhauled at depot main-
tenance activities.
U
Repair parts specifically selected for sal-
vage by acclamation units because of
precious metal content, critical mate-
rials, or high dollar value reusable
casings or castings.

umn indicates the Federal stock number assigned
to the item and will be used for requisitioning
purposes.
c. Description, Column

This column indi-
cates the Federal item name and any additional
description of the item required. The abbrevia-
tion “w/e” when used as a part of the nomencla-
ture, indicates the Federal stock number includes
all armament, equipment, accessories, and repair
parts issued with the item. A part number or
other reference number is followed by the appli-
cable five-digit Federal supply code for manu-
facturers in parentheses.
d. Unit of Measure (U/M), Column 4. A 2
character alphabetic abbreviation indicating the
amount or quantity of the item upon which the
allowances are based e.g., ft, ea, pr, etc.
e.
Quantity Incorporated in Unit, Column 5.

used in the assembly group. A “V” appearing in
this column in lieu of a quantity indicates that a

spacers, gaskets, etc. ).
f. 30-Day DS/GS Maintenance Allowances,
Columns
6
and
7.
NOTE;
Allowances in GS column are for GS mainte-
nance only.
(1)
The allowance columns are divided into
three subcolumns. Indicated in each subcolumn,
opposite the first appearance of each item, is the
total quantity of items authorized for the number
of equipments supported. Subsequent appearances
of the same item will have the letters “REF” in
the applicable allowance columns. Items authorize
for use as required but not for initial stockage
are identified with an asterisk in the allowance
column.
(2) The quantitative allowances for DS/GS
levels of maintenance will represent initial stock-
age for a 30-day period for the number of equip-
ments supported.
(3) Determination of the total quantity of
parts required for maintenance of more than 100
of these equipments can be accomplished by con-
verting the equipment quantity to a decimal fac-
tor by placing a decimal point before the next
to last digit of the number to indicate hundredths,
and multiplying the decimal factor by the parts
quantity authorized in the 51–100 allowance col-
umn. Example, authorized allowance for 51–100
equipments is 40; for 150 equipments multiply
40 by 1.50 or 60 parts required.
