What is NATO Supply Classification Class 9340?

NSC 9340 is the NATO Supply Classification Class (also known as Federal Supply Class FSC 9340 in the USA) for supply items codified in the category of Glass Fabricated Materials.

Which Federal Supply Group is FSC 9340 in?

FSC 9340 is in Federal Supply Group (FSG) 93 which contains Nonmetallic Fabricated Materials.

Which NATO Supply Classification Group is NSC 9340 in?

NSC 9340is in NATO Supply Classification Group (NSG) 93 which contains Nonmetallic Fabricated Materials.

What is a Laminated Glass?

A Laminated Glass (GLASS,LAMINATED) is a transparent item consisting of two or more pieces of glass, with straight parallel surfaces bonded together by an interlay of transparent plastic to prevent fragmentation or splintering if broken. It may be heat strengthened and/or tinted and is generally used where safety glazing characteristics are required, such as airplane windows, explosive hazards and furniture shielding.

What is a Glass Tubing?

A Glass Tubing (TUBING,GLASS) is a tubular item of glass having a uniform cross section throughout its entire length. It may have reference and/or indicator markings and is generally used where the conveying, containing, or visual inspection of liquids and/or gasses are required, such as laboratories. Excludes INSULATOR (1), WASHER; and WASHER (as modified).

What is an Observation Window?

An Observation Window (WINDOW,OBSERVATION) is a transparent item of a predetermined size that permits unobstructed and undistorted view of a desired area. It may include a frame, have reference markings, grid lines and may be heat strengthened and/or tinted. It is generally used where safety, security, and/or the restriction of foreign matter are required, such as the visual examination of the inside of pressurized tanks, liquid sights, controlled liquid flow, and inspection of equipment enclosed in a housing. See WINDOW (as modified); SCALE, CATHODE RAY TUBE; SCALE, PLOTTING; WINDOW, METAL; WINDOW, WOOD; and WINDOW PANEL, AIRCRAFT.

What is a Single Plate Safety Glass?

A Single Plate Safety Glass (GLASS,SAFETY,SINGLE PLATE) is a transparent item consisting of prestressed pieces of glass, with straight parallel surfaces. Prestress results from heating up to fusing temperature followed by uniform quenching on both sides. Quick shrinking produces a high surface tension which only can be broken down by a heavy mechanical load. The shattered glass crumbles into spherical non-splintering pieces. It may be heat resistant or tinted and is generally used where safety characteristics such as in motor-vehicle windows are required. Excludes GLASS, LAMINATED.

NATO Supply Class 9340 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 93, which is dedicated to Nonmetallic Fabricated Materials. Specifically, Class 9340 focuses on Glass Fabricated Materials.

Glass Fabricated Materials refer to products that are made from glass and have been processed or fabricated in some way. This can include items such as glass sheets, glass panels, glass containers, glass components, and other glass-based products that have undergone manufacturing or fabrication processes.

The purpose of classifying Glass Fabricated Materials under NATO Supply Class 9340 is to provide a standardized system for categorizing and organizing these types of products within NATO. This classification system helps facilitate procurement, logistics, and supply chain management for NATO member countries.

By having a specific supply class for Glass Fabricated Materials, it becomes easier for NATO member countries to identify, source, and procure these materials for various purposes, such as construction, manufacturing, or maintenance of military equipment and infrastructure.

It's important to note that NATO Supply Class 9340 is just one of many supply classes within NATO Supply Group 93. Each class within the group represents a different type of nonmetallic fabricated material, allowing for a comprehensive categorization of these materials within the NATO supply system.

Overall, NATO Supply Class 9340 for Glass Fabricated Materials plays a crucial role in ensuring efficient and effective procurement and management of glass-based products within the NATO organization.
