What is a Vegetable Fiber Hard Pressed Building Board?

A Vegetable Fiber Hard Pressed Building Board (BUILDING BOARD,HARD PRESSED,VEGETABLE FIBER) is a rectangular shaped board of wood or other vegetable fibers of heavy density and square edges. The surfaces of the board may be smooth, tile scored, embossed, or painted.

What is a Thermal Insulation Sleeving?

A Thermal Insulation Sleeving (INSULATION SLEEVING,THERMAL) is a rigid or flexible item composed of one or more materials, having uniform inside and outside diameters in the entire length. It may be furnished in segments or split-round or full-round sections, composed of one or more layers. It is specifically designed to cover pipe, tubing, and like surfaces, to restrict the transfer of heat from the high temperature surface to the low temperature surface. It may also include protective coatings, jackets, attaching cement, attaching bands, and/or accessories, (excluding prefabricated components used in aircraft applications).Excludes INSULATION PIPE COVERING, THERMAL, AIRCRAFT.

What is a Thermal Insulation Blanket?

A Thermal Insulation Blanket (INSULATION BLANKET,THERMAL) is a flexible material composed of one or more kinds of fiber, with or without binder added, supplied in flat sheets or rolls. It may have a vapor barrier or reinforcing material such as paper, woven wire or other sheet material affixed to one or both sides. It is designed to provide resistance to the flow of heat, and must be rated for this use. Excludes insulation components prefabricated into definite shapes and sizes used in aircraft applications. Excludes INSULATION BLANKET,THERMAL,AIRCRAFT.

NATO Supply Class 5640 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 56, which is dedicated to Construction And Building Materials.

Specifically, NATO Supply Class 5640 focuses on Wallboard, Building Paper, And Thermal Insulation Materials.

Wallboard refers to materials used for constructing walls, such as gypsum board or drywall. Building paper is a type of material used for moisture and weather protection in construction projects. Thermal insulation materials are used to reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency in buildings.

This classification is important within NATO as it helps to standardize the procurement and supply of these specific materials for construction and building projects. By categorizing them under NATO Supply Class 5640, it becomes easier for member nations to identify and acquire the necessary materials for their construction needs.

If you require more specific information about any of the materials within this supply class, please let me know.
