MIL-PRF-32407A, PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION: MOUNTS, RESILIENT (SURFACE SHIP APPLICATION) (07-JUN-2016)

MIL-PRF-32407A, PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION: MOUNTS, RESILIENT (SURFACE SHIP APPLICATION) (07-JUN-2016)., This specification covers resilient mounts (see 6.4.8) used to support mechanical or electrical equipment for use in surface ship applications internal to the hull. Mounts in accordance with this specification are considered only when mounts contained in S9073-A2-HBK-010, Installation and Inspection Information; Resilient Mount Handbook, cannot meet the requirements of a particular application. This specification is not approved for resilient mounts used on submarines. For submarine applications, see 6.3. The mounts covered by this specification are used to improve at least one of the following performance attributes on surface ships: vibration, shock, ambient noise, or radiated noise. These functions make the mounts military unique. Mounts covered by this specification are intended to be used when Navy standard mounts cannot meet the requirements for a particular application. This specification is intended to be tailored, where permitted, to each specific application by specifying the required mount attributes and verification tests in the acquisition documents (see 1.2 and 6.2).
