REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR)
0001 00
If your loader needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user, are the only one who can tell us what you
don't like about your equipment. Let us know why you don't like the design or performance. (E-Mail:
TACOM-TECH-PUBS@conus.army.mil) We will send you a reply. The preferred method for submitting Quality Deficiency
Reports (QDRs) is through the Army Electronic Product Support (AEPS) website under the Electronic Deficiency Reporting
System (EDRS). The web address is: https://aeps.ria.army.mil. If the above method is not available to you, put it on an SF 368
(Product Quality Deficiency Report), and mail it to us at: Department of the Army, U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Arma-
ments Command, AMSRD-TAR-E, PDQR MS 268, 6501 E. 11 Mile Road, Warren, MI 38397-5000.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
1.
CPC of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any corrosion problems with this item be reported so
that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent the problem in future items.
2.
Corrosion specifically occurs with metals. It is an electrochemical process that causes the degradation of metals. It is
commonly caused by exposure to moisture, acids, bases, or salts. An example is the rusting of iron. Corrosion damage in
metals can be seen, depending on the metal, as tarnishing, pitting, fogging, surface residue, and/or cracking.
3.
Plastics, composites, and rubbers can also degrade. Degradation is caused by thermal (heat), oxidation (oxygen), solva-
tion (solvents), or photolytic (light, typically UV) processes. The most common exposures are excessive heat or light.
Damage from these processes will appear as cracking, softening, swelling, and/or breaking.
SF Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM 738-750,
