The FEDERAL SUPPLY CLASSII'ICATION (FSC) and its fndexes
irale been cler-elopeil ald aclopted br, the Office of the Secretary of Defense for
itse in classifying iterns of snpply identifiecl untler the Fecleral Cataloging
Plogram.
The FSC is a coml:rrodity classilication clesigried to serve the functions of
siil-,1r1r' aucl is sulficiently cornprehensive iu scope to permit tlie classification of
all items of persorral plopcrtv. fn oldel to accornplish this, groups and classes
l,rri'e l-reett established for the univelse of cornmoclities. with emphasis on the itcms
i::-,rrstt to be iIr the suppll. systelts of thc Fetlerlal Government.
The stlttctut'o uf thc IrSC. as pleserrtly est,ablishecl. consists of 7? grorrps.
.,r.,i-'h rrle subcli'l.icled into 60;l clrsscs. I,lar:h clllss
covers n lchtir.ely hornogcnc<.rtis
rtfc& of cornmotlitics, itr lespecL to their physical or performance charactcristics,
or iu tire re-<pect that thc items incinrled thereiu are suclr aS are usually requisitioned
or issued together, or constitute a related grouping for supply managertreut
1-,rirlioses,
Tiie FSC utilizes a four-digit coding stmcture. The first trvo digits of the
rocle tmrnber iclcnti{y the gronp, and the last trvo digits of the codo rtumber
iclentify the classes rvithin each group. Code numbers a,re so assigned as to make
it possible to expand the uunrbcr of groups antl classes as that becomes necessary.
Itt most instances gaps iiave been left rvithirr each group, betrveen the numbers
assigttecl to trdjacent classcs, to permit the inseltion of nerv classes in logical
setluellcer 'lt'hett tteccssary, because of technological advances or to accourplish other
clesir"able additions and changes.
The primary application of the FSC code number is in tho Federal stock
number (l'SN). The FSN for an item of supply consists of tire applicable
four-digit FSC code nurnbel plus the seven-digit Federal item identification
number,
Part 1 of the Federal Supply Classification presents the classification
strrtctttre of the FSC, shoiving all groups aid classes listed in the arrangcment
of the four-digit FSC code-numbering system. 114rere appropriate, tho rnain
inclusious and exclusions, rvhich delimit the coverage of a particular class, aro
shorvn irnmediately follorving the title for the class.
The other trvo parts, which make up the rndexes to the Federal supply
Ciassification are:
Part' 2. Numeric rndex of classes (cataloging Handbook H 2-2). This
publication presents the names of iterns included. witliin each class,
listed alpliabeticaliy urtder the clasis number and title. l'he classes
aro shorvn, group by group, in tho numeric order of the tr'SC
code-nurnbering system.
Part 3. Alphabetic Index (Cataloging Handhook H 2r3). This is an
index of all names of items rvhich appear in Part 2, arrangcd in
alphabetical order. Opposite each entry is shown the applicable
X'SC code number.
For convenienee, Part 1 is usually refened to as the (.structure,,t part 2 as
((Numeric

Parb 1 of the tr'ederal Srrpply Classification is maintained by the issuance
of Letters for Distribution C/l-. Ihese Letters aro distributed in limited number
