REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR)
0001
If your 924H Wheel Loader needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user, are the only one who
can tell us what you do not like about the equipment. Let us know why you do not like the design or performance.
All non-aviation / missile EIRs and PQDRs must be submitted through the Product Data Reporting and Evaluation
Program (PDREP) Web Site. The PDREP site is: https://www.pdrep.csd.disa.mil.
If you do not have internet access, you may submit your information using an SF 368 (Product Quality Deficiency

CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
0001
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) energy,
oxidation (oxygen), solvation (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.
4. SF Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM
750-8, TAMMS Users Manual.
