6.10.1 Bulk lot. An indefinite quantity of a homogeneous mixture of hydraulic fluid,
offered for acceptance in a single, isolated container; or manufactured in a single plant run (not
exceeding 24 hours), through the same processing equipment, with no change in the ingredient
materials.
6.10.2 Packaged lot. An indefinite number of unit containers of identical size and type,
offered for acceptance, and filled with a homogeneous mixture of hydraulic fluid from a single,
isolated container; or filled with a homogeneous mixture of hydraulic fluid, manufactured in a
single plant run (not exceeding 24 hours), through the same processing equipment, with no

6.11 International standardization agreement implementation. This specification
implements STANAG 1135, ANNEX C "Interchangeability of Fuel, Lubricants, and Associated
Products Used by the Armed Forces of the North Atlantic Treaty Nations" and STANAG 7093,
"Guide Specification for NATO Land System Automotive Fluids". When amendment, revision,
or cancellation of this specification is proposed, the preparing activity must coordinate the action
with the U.S. National Point of Contact for the international standardization agreement, as
identified in the ASSIST database at https://assist.dla.mil.
6.12 Interchangeability and compatibility. MIL-PRF-46170 fluids are not
interchangeable with any other fluids. MIL-PRF-46170 fluids are to be regarded as compatible
only with fluids conforming to MIL-PRF-5606, MIL-PRF-6083, MIL-PRF-83282, and MIL-
PRF-87257. Dilution with MIL-PRF-5606 or MIL-PRF-6083 severely lowers the flash point
and fire-resistant capability.
6.13 Disposal actions.
6.13.1 Field operations. Depending on the size of spills, paper towels or absorbents will
be used to absorb the liquid. Contaminated soil will be removed and placed in a box with
absorbents or towels. This box with spill clean-up wastes should either be buried along with
ordinary refuse at a rate not to exceed 10 pounds of clean-up wastes per spill event or be
incinerated in a permitted municipal waste incinerator. Bulk wastes and contaminated liquids
should not be disposed in land fills. Partially full containers of contaminated product should be
collected centrally and stored for later recycle or heat recovery use. State requirements may vary
regarding recycle alternatives. Liquids for recycle or heat recovery should be accumulated by
repouring in appropriately sized and labeled larger containers (see 6.13.3).
