5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as
specified in the contract or order (see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by
DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these personnel need to contact the responsible packaging
activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the
Inventory Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or
within the military service's system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the
managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM
products, or by contacting the responsible packaging activity.

(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful,
but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. The spindle oils covered by this specification are intended for the use
as lubricants for high-speed spindles on machine tools. The type of oil selected should be based
on the recommendation of the manufacturer of the machine tool. These oils may be used
satisfactorily in other applications requiring extra low, low, or medium viscosity,
oxidation-resistant oils.
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the following:
a. Title, number, and date of this specification.
b. Type of spindle oil required (see 1.2).
c. Packaging requirements (see 5.1).
6.3 Storage conditions. The spindle oils may be stored at temperatures ranging from
