Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com Table C–2 K series source codes C–3. M series source codes M series source coded items are to be manufactured or fabricated at some level of maintenance. They are normally consumable items or those requiring very limited repair (that is, bending, painting, alignment, and so on). The assignment of this code should be based primarily on the predicted usage of the item over the life cycle of the end item and the practicality and economics of stocking, storing and issuing items. Typical M coded items include hose assemblies, tubing, name plates, decals, wires, and so on, which have minimal likelihood of replacement during the life cycle of the end item.
All the publications, manufacturing data, required shop equipment and skills must be available at the specified level of maintenance. Table C–3 M series source codes C–4.
