Department of the Army forms and procedures used for equipment maintenance will be those prescribed by DA Pam 738-750,

The Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS).

1-3. CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)

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

problems with the forklift be reported so that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent the

problem in the future.

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

as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swilling, or breaking of these materials may be a corrosion problem.

If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using Standard Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report. Use of

key words such as "corrosion, rust, deterioration, and 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.
