Need specification QQ C-320 "Electrodeposited Chromium"
this text gets replaced with bannerText
Q. Hello, would be possible to have the specification provided to me?

A. Hi David.
As you see from the conversation below, that spec is way out of date and was canceled long ago. But if you want it anyway, here is QQ-C-320 rev. B (17-June-1974), Amendment 4 (10-April-1987), and the Cancelation Notice (3-May-2001):
QQ-C-320
The later SAE AMS replacements are copyrighted and must be purchased; they can't be copied and disbursed.
Luck & Regards,

Q. I've found printed versions that will be mailed. I would like it right away. I previously had printed versions, but were lost in last summer's flood. Thanks.

A. Shannon,
Do you want a copy of Fed QQ-C-320 or AMSQQC320? If it is the former then go to the assist quicksearch website and download it for free. If it is the latter, as this superseded QQ-C-320, then this is available from SAE direct. By the way AMSQQC320 has been superseded by AMS2460.

A. Google "ASSIST Quicksearch" and you'll get to the web depository of US Military and Federal Specifications.
Put "QQ-C-320" into the Document ID box. Click on 'Submit'.
Click on the icon on the left of "QQ-C-320", then click on the PDF icons of the documents you want to download.
AMSQQC320 was revised once, then cancelled and replaced by AMS 2460 in July 2007.

A. I usually go to
http://assist.daps.dla.mil/quicksearch/
to get copies of mil specs. This particular one, QQ C320, is listed as canceled and replaced by AMS QQ C320, though the last copy prior to the cancellation is available there. SAE's website in turn lists AMS QQ C320 as canceled and replaced by AMS2460, which can be purchased there or via other spec suppliers such as AMS2460.
