Writing a passivation spec
April 22, 2009
- MIL-DTL-81706B
- MIL-DTL-5541
[on DLA]F
I am wondering if anyone has a quick explanation as to the difference between these to Mil spec's. I place on my prints the following note but wondering if I need to change it.
Mil-DTL-5541F, Type II, Class 3
OR
Mil-DTL-5541F, Type II, Class 1A
Depending what I need but should I reference the MIL 81706B as well or all by itself.

Hello Jim,
Mil-DTL-81706B is a detail of materials. It also comes with a Qualified products list.
If you list Mil-DTL-5541F is references Mil-DTl-81706B therefore I don't believe you need to mention it.
Hope this helps,
