Explanation
Stocked items; use the applicable NSN to request/requisition items with these
source codes. They are authorized to the category indicated by the code entered
in the 3d position of the SMR code.
**NOTE: Items coded PC are subject to deterioration.
Items with these codes are not to be requested/requisitioned individually. They
are part of a kit which is authorized to the maintenance category indicated in the
3d position of the SMR code. The complete kit must be requisitioned and
applied.
Explanation
Items with these codes are not to be requested/requisitioned individually. They
must be made from bulk material which is identified by the part number in the
DESCRIPTION and USABLE ON CODE (UOC) column and listed in the Bulk
Material group of the repair parts list in this RPSTL. If the item is authorized to
you by the 3d position code of the SMR code, but the source code indicates it is
made at a higher level, order the item from the higher level of maintenance.
