Serving our customers with quality and safety first.
the muzzle body shall be fabricated of cloth and reinforced with straps and edging tape. the circumference of the muzzle shall be adjustable. the upper portion of the muzzle shall not extend farther rearward than the dog's cheekbones (i.e. the junction of the maxilla and zygomatic bones of the skull) ; the upper portion of the muzzle shall not extend farther forward than the dog's nose; the lower portion of the muzzle shall not press against the dog's throat; and the muzzle shall not interfere with the dog's vision. the muzzle body shall be provided with attachment straps. there shall be at least two straps, one attached to each side of the muzzle. the two primary straps shall extend below the dog's cheekbones to hold the muzzle in place by fastening together behind the dog's head. the fastener shall be a buckle incorporating a QUICK-Release mechanism that is resistant to accidental opening and a means to adjust the length of the straps for proper fit.

the muzzle shall be designed and constructed to fit around the dog's snout to provide the handler a means to prevent the dog from biting without restricting the dog's breathing or its ability to pant, drink, or vomit. it is intended as a safety measure for handling the dog in stressful situations, particularly while administering first aid to the dog. the circumference of the muzzle body shall be adjustable to sizes from 8.5 to 12in. at the rear, and 7 to 10in. diameter front. muzzle bodies adjustable to larger and/or smaller sizes in addition to the ranges specified are acceptable. the length of the muzzle body shall be not more than 3in. from stop to nose. the combined length of the buckled attachment straps shall be adjustable from 12 to 18in.. straps adjustable to larger and/or smaller sizes in addition to the specified range are acceptable.
Indicates there is no data in the hmirs and the nsn is in a fsc not generally suspected of containing hazardous materials.
Item does not contain precious metal.
No known electrostatic discharge (esd) or electromagnetic interference (emi) sensitivity.
Represents items with no adp components
The item does not have a nuclear hardened feature or any other critical feature such as tolerance, fit restriction or application.
HMIC: Hazardous Material Indicator Code. A one position code that identifies a hazardous item.
PMIC: Precious Metal Indicator Code. A one position code which identifies items that have precious metals as part of their content. precious metals are those metals generally considered to be uncommon, highly valuable, and relatively superior in certain properties such as resistance to corrosion and electrical conductivity.
ESD: Electrostatic Discharge. Indicates if an item is susceptible to electrostatic discharge or electromagnetic interference damage. electrostatic discharge damage occurs when an accumulation of static electricity generated by the relative motion or separation of materials is released to another item by direct contact. electromagnetic interference damage occurs when an item comes into proximity with an electrostatic or magnetic field.
ENAC: Enviromental Attribute Code. Identifies items with environmentally preferred characteristics.
CRITL: Criticality Indicator Code. Indicates an item is technically critical by tolerance, fit, application, nuclear hardness properties, or other characteristics.
Defense logistics agency, enterprise business systems
SOS: Source of Supply. A three position code or routing identifier code (ric), which identifies the source of supply activity.
SMIC: Special Material Indicator Code. A two position code, which categorizes material on the basis of requirements for source or quality control, technical design or configuration control, procurement, stocking and issue control, special receipt, inspection, testing, storage, or handling.
MMAC: Material Management Aggregation Code. A two position code that identifies an item of supply to be managed by a specific activity manager.
MCC: Material Echelon Code. A two position code employed by the marine corps in classifying items into categories by materiel category and procurement echelon. the alphanumeric management code is in the first position and identifies the materiel category
IMC: Denotes wether items shall be subjected to integrated management under the defense supply agency or retained by the individual military service or other department of defense components for their management. Assigned by th activity responsible for item management coding.
