Control of Corrosion in Ground Support Equipment

Abstract

A two year (1972-1974) survey of corrosion in the mechanical elements of ground support equipment was conducted based on the corrosion maintenance manhours reported in the 3M Data Bank. Inventories of all major Navy Commands were reviewed. Data did not pinpoint any severe corroded equipment, areas or corrosion situations. However, the total headings under which all corrosion is reported was determined to be probably too broad for the definitive purposes of this program. A more refined review is necessary to establish any corrosion problem and eventually develop a corrosion control manual for ground support equipment. (Author)
