CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL

Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any

corrosion problems with this item be reported so that the problems can be corrected and improvements

can be made to prevent the problem in the future.

While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other

materials, such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling, or breaking of these

materials may be a corrosion problem.

If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using SF 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report.

Use of key words such as "corrosion", "rust", "deterioration", or "cracking" will ensure that the information

is identified as a CPC problem.

The form should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750, Functional User's Manual for

the Maintenance Management System (TAMMS).
