In addition, the use of plywood, cardboard or other similar materials that will splinter, flake or crumble is prohibited as protective covering for openings on fittings, valves and components. CRES or aluminum sheet, .050 thickness or greater, or suitable plastic, is the only acceptable material for capping, sealing or protecting openings and machined surfaces unless otherwise approved by Electric Boat Corporation. THE USE OF SYTROFOAM PACKING IS PROHIBITED. Except as noted above, the supplier's normal commercial preservation, packaging and packing shall be sufficient if it: Ensures acceptance by common carrier at lowest rate, and Affords protection against damage during shipment. Alternate packing materials are available and should be utilized on future shipments. Receipt of material packed in styrofoam will result in rejection and return of material and/or delays in processing through our Receiving/Inspection Departments and in payment of your invoice.
