CHAPTER 33
PALLETS
33-1. GENERAL. This chapter covers pallets used in storing and handling weapons and explosives.
Reference should be made to the particular item sheet for more detailed information.
33-2. DESCRIPTION.
a. A pallet is a wood or metal platform on which material can be stacked. Wood pallets consist
of a top decking and a bottom decking, both of hardwood, separated by three equally spaced softwood
stringers or spacers. The space between the top and bottom decking allows the entry of forks of materials
handling equipment. Wood pallets are being replaced by metal pallets for the handling of live
ammunition.
b. Metal pallets generally have a main deck or platform made of lengths of heavy steel wire
welded to form a grid of 2-inch squares. The deck is welded to and supported by vertical supports and a
number of parallel, heavy steel wire deck supports. The vertical supports are welded to the deck and to
three steel-plate base runners. These runners extend along the length of the bottom of the pallet. The
complete pallet is thoroughly galvanized. Metal pallets are more durable than wood pallets, are not
subject to warping, and do not present a fire hazard.
c. Two general types of pallets are in use: 2-way and 4-way. Two-way pallets can be approached
and raised with a forklift or pallet truck only on two sides, whereas 4-way pallets can be handled on all
four sides.
33-3. OPERATION. Pallets are used for storing and handling bombs, cartridge tanks, projectiles,
rocket containers, rocket heads, rocket motors and unit loads. When selecting a pallet, several factors
should be considered: the weight and size of the load, the type of load, and the particular storage or
handling situation. The weight and size of the load will determine the size and capacity of the pallet
selected. When live ammunition and explosives are involved, metal pallets should be used if available
and must be used when fabricating fleet-issue unit loads. Type of entry, 2-way or 4-way, should be
considered in the selection of a pallet.

(GENERIC) DESCRIPTION.
a. Shackles, constructed of galvanized or self-colored steel, are generally U-shaped fittings with a rod
inserted through each leg of the fitting to secure a load. Loose shackles, which are not an integral part of an
equipment design, shall not be used at greater than their Safe Working Load (SWL). The SWL shall be determined
by calculating 80 percent of the rated capacity that is steel-stamped on the shackle. (For example, if a shackle has
a rated capacity of 1,000 pounds, the SWL is 800 pounds.)
b. Only shackles which have been permanently marked in raised letters with the SWL, size and
manufacturer name are approved to handle ordnance.
c. For information purposes only, listed below are examples of shackles that are approved for Navy use.
Other types may be used if they meet the above requirements.

CHAPTER 42
SKIDS
42-1. GENERAL. This chapter covers skids used in handling weapons and explosives. Reference
should be made to the particular item sheet for detailed information.
42-2. DESCRIPTION. A skid is usually a mobile piece of equipment with a cradle-type bed for
supporting a load. The skid is not self-propelled, requiring either manpower or powered equipment for
movement. Some skids are equipped with lift angles which provides a means of lifting the entire skid. In
this case, the skid is carried to the desired location and raised to a convenient height for unloading by
lifting equipment.
42-3. OPERATION. Skids are generally used to handle bombs, mines, torpedoes, rockets, missiles
and miscellaneous ammunition items during aircraft rearming procedures aboard aircraft carriers and at
shore stations. When selecting a skid, several factors should be considered: the weight and size of the
load, the rated safe working load (SWL) of the skid, the type of location in which the skid is to be used,
and the particular weapon to be carried. The weight and size of the load shall not exceed the SWL or
handling limitations of the intended skid.

CHAPTER 43
SLINGS
43-1. GENERAL. This chapter covers slings used in hoisting and handling weapons and explosives.
Reference should be made to the particular item sheet for detailed information.
43-2. DESCRIPTION.
a. A sling is a lifting device consisting of one or more flexible sections. This flexible section
may be wire rope or a strap of nylon, steel or cotton mesh.
b. Slings are made in two basic configurations: (1) a flexible section, or sections, which may be
connected to a lifting link, and (2) a beam with a flexible section, or sections attached.
c. The first configuration secures the load in one of two ways: with a fitting, or fittings,
connecting directly to a load, or by looping around the load without fastening directly to it.
d. The fittings used on slings may be hooks, shackles, brackets, bands, or rings. These fittings
either connect to eyes, lugs, frames or other fixtures on the load, or go around the load.
e. Some of the slings which loop around the load may have hooks or other devices for securing
the sling around the load; others are looped around the load by connecting both ends of the sling to the
hook or shackle of the hoisting equipment.
f. Military Specification MIL-W-3903 describes two general types of wire rope assemblies.
Type II refers to slings having metal sleeve endings and includes two classes. Class 1 is 6 x 19 and
Class 2 is 6 x 37 improved plow steel wire rope with an independent wire rope core. Type II, whose
independent wire rope core offers resistance to crushing, is the only type authorized for use in sling
construction.
g. The slings consisting of a beam with an attached flexible section, or sections, are of two kinds:
those having attached sections with fittings which connect directly to the load, and those having sections
which loop around the load.
43-3. OPERATION.
a. In selecting a sling for a particular handling situation, several factors should be considered:
the weight and size of the load, the rated safe working load (SWL) of the sling, the kind and spacing of
any suspension fixtures on the load, and the load positions which are encountered before, during and after
handling. The weight and size of the load shall not exceed the SWL of the intended sling. The kind and
NAVSEA OP 2173 VOLUME 2 EIGHTH REVISION
43-2
spacing of any suspension fixtures will determine the kind of attaching fittings the required sling must
have.
b. Since most of the slings lift loads in a horizontal position only, this must be considered in
selecting a lifting device. Other lifting devices for bombs, containers, mines, missiles, pallets, torpedoes
and other loads are described in the chapters which cover beams, carriers and strongbacks.
c. Slings with attaching fittings are used with bombs, containers, mines, missiles, torpedoes, and
general cargo loads; those which loop around the load are used with bombs, mines, torpedoes, warheads,
and general cargo loads.
d. Slings consisting of a beam and sections with attaching fittings are used with missile
components and pallets; those with a strap for looping around the load are used with missiles and
torpedoes.
e. In selecting slings for general cargo handling, the choice among the different wire rope
constructions depends on the application of the sling and the characteristics most desired. If resistance to
abrasion is of primary importance, wire rope of the 6 x 19 class is used, since this rope, having wires of
large diameter, affords a high degree of resistance to abrasion. On the other hand, if flexibility of the wire
rope is an important characteristic, the ropes of the 6 x 37 class, having small wires, are the better
construction.
NOTE
The slings listed in this publication may be constructed with a turnback
eye, double swage (reference NAVSEA Drawing 2643075) or
constructed with a mechanically spliced flemish eye and single swage
(reference NAVSEA Drawing 6213972). All wire rope slings are
authorized for use, providing they are serviceable and test certification is
current.

SLING, BOMB ROTATION
DL 7516596
NSN NOT ASSIGNED
DESCRIPTION. Bomb Rotation Sling is a commercially off-the-shelf (COTS) polyester round sling, constructed
with polyester load carrying yarns that are protected by two independent, seamless color coded covers. The
internal red polyester cover is protected by a green nylon outer cover. The sling is equipped with two overload
indicators, tell-tails, and a fiber optic inspection cable, which determines the condition of the sling’s internal core
yarn. Damage to this internal core will also damage the fiber optic cable interrupting the transmission of light
through the cable.
APPLICATION. Bomb Rotation Sling is used in pairs in the form of a choker hitch configuration to handle and lift
500-pound, 1,000-pound and 2,000-pound bombs. Currently, these slings have a limited use by shore stations only.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. Hook Adapter Mk 91 Mod 0 or any approved overhead lifting device.

STAND, ARMAMENT HANDLING EQUIPMENT TEST
A/F48T-6
DL 1400AS100-1
NSN 6R 4920-01-318-1328
DESCRIPTION.
a. The A/F48T-6 Armament Handling Equipment Test Stand is essentially a twin-screw
universal testing machine consisting of a control console and load frame that function together to perform
tension and compression proof testing of armament handling equipment.
b. The control console houses the electrical controls and components and interfaces with the load frame
through interconnecting cables. The Crosshead Control Panel contains the directorial and speed controls that
enable operator control of the test stand. The control console also contains on/off and crosshead raise/lower/speed
controls, as well as a digital indicating system which provides a readout of applied load.
c. The load frame is constructed of a sheave arm and loading cable attached to a moving crosshead which
supplies loading forces to the unit being tested. A load cell on the crosshead measures the load and provides
electric signals for remote indication on the control console. Crosshead vertical positioning and loading is
accomplished by an electric motor, synchronized jack drive assemblies, and twin lead screws on which the
crosshead is mounted. Crosshead speed is controlled from the control console through speed range selectors and a
potentiometer. The applied load is measured by a load cell mounted on the loading crosshead. The load cell is
mounted in a manner that enables tension testing to be performed above the crosshead and compression testing to
be performed below the movable crosshead.

53-1. GENERAL. This section covers trailers used in the transportation, handling and loading of
weapons and explosives. Reference should be made to the particular item sheet for more detailed
information.
53-2. DESCRIPTION. A trailer is a vehicle that must be towed by another vehicle such as a truck or
tractor. All trailers are equipped with load-supporting bodies or frames and with wheels or casters for
mobility. Weapons trailer construction consists of a heavy channel or tubular steel frame mounted on two
axles equipped with four pneumatic tires. The frame is supported by automotive, leaf springs. The front
axle is steerable, and the rear axle is fixed. The trailer is equipped with a tow bar or tow handle that
contains an eye for coupling the trailer to the towing vehicle.
53-3. OPERATION. When selecting a trailer for a particular handling job, several factors should be
considered. The trailer’s safe working load (SWL) and the weight of load that the trailer can safely
support are of prime importance. In addition, the arrangement for supporting the load, whether it is an
adapter, chock, cradle, bracket, rack panel, or platform governs the type and size of load that can be
carried.

TRUCKS
57-1. GENERAL. This chapter covers various trucks used in handling, loading and transporting
ammunition, explosives and weapons. Reference should be made to the particular item sheet for more
detailed information.
57-2. DESCRIPTION. Hand trucks are employed for transporting weapons and explosives such as
torpedoes, mines, projectiles, powder tanks, containers, cradles, skids and associated assemblies.
Projectile/powder tank trucks are two-, three-, or four-wheeled and most are moved manually. The
two-wheeled truck is basically a standard two- wheel dolly hand truck; the three-wheeled type has an
additional wheel which swivels to permit truck steering and aids in stabilizing the truck. The four-
wheeled is a wagon-type vehicle with two wheels rigidly mounted on the rear of the truck frame and two
wheels mounted on the front of the truck frame that swivel for steering the truck.
57-3. OPERATION. Projectile/powder tank trucks are used in handling projectiles and powder tanks
on the decks or in the magazines of ships and when loading trucks and railroad cars. The projectile
trucks, which are forklift trucks converted to handle projectiles, are used to handle large caliber
projectiles in magazines at shore establishments, and on piers or docks where projectiles are loaded onto
ships. When selecting a projectile or powder tank truck, the capacity of the truck, number of wheels,
space limitations and type of surface of the area in which the operation will be performed should be
considered.

When the lift beam is attached to the standard arm missile equipped with handling bands, envelope dimensions of
the missile configuration are not exceeded. This feature increases the value of the lift beam in magazine areas
where overhead clearance is minimal. The lift beam can be used in combination with either a forklift truck or an
overhead handling system. A forklift truck can be utilized for decanning of the missile by installing the fork boxes
on the main beam structure. The fork boxes are attached to the lift beam by inserting ball lock pins through the
holes provided. To facilitate the use of an overhead handling system, the lift beam has single lift pin located at the
center of gravity of the missile. The Low Profile Lift Beam HLU-210/E is obsolete with no replacement.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. No particular handling equipment is associated with Low Profile Lift Beam
HLU-210/E.

The Missile Dolly Base consists of a heavy metal frame supported on four dual-wheel swivel casters. A dead-man
brake handle at each end of the base will release all brakes even if only one brake lever is depressed. The brakes
will operate regardless of caster wheel position. The side rails of the base are drilled with 40 holes to which the
stacking adapters are mounted using quick release pins.
The Large Missile Stacking Adapter accommodates two missiles (placed side by side) ranging in size from 10 to 15
inches in diameter. The underside of the adapter is padded to conform to the contour of the lower missiles when
the adapters are stacked one on top of another. Straps with strap retractors are also provided on each stacking
frame to secure the missiles in place. The top missiles are secured using a pair of top straps which are also padded
and which mount to the top adapter using four quick-release pins. The AIM-54 wing/fin storage bag is hung on the
adapters.
The Small Missile Stacking Adapter is similar to the large version described above except that it will accommodate

DESCRIPTION. Gantry Assembly Hoist Mk 28 Mod 0 is inboard braced, all steel gantry-hoist combination. The
gantry consists of four main telescoping inboard braced legs, each of which have casters and wheels at the base,
and are fastened at the top to a crossbeam. The wheels are steel and grooved, which enables the gantry to roll in
two directions once it is placed on the pre-set tracks on the deck of the battleship. The hoist is a Gardner-Denver
pneumatic powered ride in case of an air supply shortage. The crossbeam fabricated using an 58 x 18.4 I-beam, has
a 1" pitch roller chain welded to the bottom which provides a track for the pneumatic hoist sprocket to travel in,
resulting in lateral motion of the hoist. The crossbeam also has stops fastened to it to prevent the hoist from
traveling off the beam. The top of the beam has U-bolts fastened to it near the ends that secure the wire rope sling.
This sling is permanently attached and enables the entire Gantry Assembly Hoist to be lifted from the lighter to the
battleship and back again using a water borne crane.

DESCRIPTION. Bomb Hoist AERO 14B consists of a gear train, drum and cable, brake mechanism, fish-pole-
type extension tube and two hand cranks - a ratchet crank and brake crank. The cranks turn in the opposite
direction from drum rotation. The ratchet crank is used only to help hoist the load an may be disengaged from the
gear train by latching a ratchet pawl with a ratchet pawl latch. The brake crank is used to hoist the load and to
control the position of the load. A spring-loaded roller, riding on the top of the cable drum, and a cable guide,
inside the extension tube, keep the cable lying firmly in its groove even when no load is applied to the hoist. A
swiveling clevis at the end of the extension tube couples the hoist to the bomb rack and permits the hoist to be
operated from different points on the ground. The tube clamp permits the housing to be rotated to any position
with respect to the extension tube.
APPLICATION. Bomb Hoist AERO 14B is used to hoist various weapons. Overhand motion of the cranks hoists
the load. After the load is hoisted, a clutch-type brake holds the gear train fast. Backing off the brake crank lowers
the load. Bomb Hoist AERO 14B is obsolete and is replaced by Bomb Hoist HLU-288/E.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. Bomb Hoist AERO 14B is used with a variety of hoisting bands.

DESCRIPTION. Weapon Loader AERO 47A is a self-propelled vehicle with low heavy duty frames supported by
six small, high capacity wheels. The vehicle consists of two main functional components -the lifting mechanism
and drive mechanism. The lifting mechanism consists of a lift boom, hydraulic system and a manipulating head.
The lift boom is operated by a piston-type hydraulic cylinder mounted in the midsection of the boom support. The
manipulating head is located at the upper end of the lift boom and is capable of limited lateral and longitudinal
motion as well as yaw, pitch and roll movement. The weapon loaders are equipped with a lifting fork attached to
the manipulating head by means of an adapter and can be mounted in three basic positions: normal forward,
inverted forward and inverted rear. By inverting the adapter plate, the maximum reach of the forks in this
configuration is increased. The drive mechanism includes a conventional automotive-type clutch, transmission,
and is rear wheel driven. The weapon loaders are equipped with four-wheel, hydraulic brakes, mechanical parking
brakes, and rear-wheel power steering. Hydraulic system controls are located within reach of the operator’s seat,
also located on the manipulating head section of the boom. Power to operate the lift and drive mechanisms is
supplied by an air-cooled diesel engine.

STOP, FORK
DL 2470099
NSN NOT ASSIGNED
DESCRIPTION. Fork Stop is a channel formed of sheet steel. The sides of the channel have a slotted hole at one
end and an L-shaped groove in the middle. The slotted end is bolted to the upright portion of a fork tine; the groove
is used to stow the stop in a vertical position, making the full length of the fork tine usable.
APPLICATION. Fork Stop is used on the tines of forklift trucks to reduce the effective length of the tines in order
to restrict the tines from extending beyond a pallet or container and damaging adjacent containers. However, when
carrying loads with a load center greater than the truck’s rated load center, the truck’s safe working load (SWL) is
reduced. The stop is lifted to disengage it from the bolt holding it in the stowed position. The stop can be
fabricated and installed locally. Fork Stop is obsolete with no replacement item.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. No particular handling equipment is associated with Fork Stop.

BEAM, DOUBLE LIFTING
MIL-S-70615
P/N AC200000364
NSN 2B 3940-01-247-3682
DESCRIPTION. Double Lifting Beam is used with Army top-lift slings in the Army field environment. The beam
multiplies the number of ammunition pallets per lift. A quick-release pin is used to keep the beams closed. There
are 12 adjustable hook positions at each end of the straight component of the beam and 9 positions each end of the
dog-leg component. These adjustments position the corresponding slings to achieve tight pallet groups resulting in
the lease space in field storage or on tactical transport. The beams can be pinned in the open position. The center
hook is for handling one sling, when required, without removal of the double beam from the lifting crane. The
straight component of the beam can function as a single beam. The beam hooks are designed with a thumb latch to
allow opening of the hook with one hand under no-load. The hook stays open until loaded by inserting the master
ring of the lifting sling. This design is to reduce effort in hooking and unhooking from the double beam since it is
intended that the double beam be used with two sets of slings: one set in-use and one being pre-hooked. This
concept speeds up pallet load transfer by keeping the crane hook in nearly constant motion.

BEAM, DOUBLE LIFTING
MIL-S-70615
P/N AC200000364
NSN 2B 3940-01-247-3682
APPLICATION. Double Lifting Sling is used with 8-Ton Auxiliary Hook on Rough Terrain Container Handling
Crane to lift Projectile Pallets or Conventional Ammunition Top-Lift Pallets. When used with Projectile Slings, the
capacity is to 6 or 12 pallets of 155mm or 1 to 4 or 8 pallets of 8 inch (203mm) projectiles. Note the Straight Beam
Component can be used as a single beam. See application of NSN 9Z 3940-01-241-7400 for proper hook-up to the
pallets. A load of 12 pallets 155mm Tank Ammunition or other top-lift capable pallets. When hooking the beam to
the crane, check that the chain is not twisted. Adjust the hook rings in the slots on the top of the beams so that the
rings are equal distance from the beam center and the pallets being lifted are a tight level load. If the pallets tip
towards the center, set the load down and move rings out 1 or 2 notches at each end. If pallets are apart, move rings
in equally until pallets are together. When towing the beam after use, use the quick-release pin to hold the two
beams closed.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. The 35 Ton Rough Terrain Container Handling Crane with beam suspended on 8
Ton Auxiliary Hook or other large crane with sufficient reach capacity. For lifting Projectile Pallets, use 8
Projectile Slings, NSN 9Z 3940-01-241-7400. For lifting all other top-lift conventional ammunition pallets, metal
tops with lifting rings or lifting bars, use 8 Top-Lift Slings, NSN 9I 1398-01-348-4670.

DESCRIPTION. Single Lifting Beam is used with Army top-lift slings in the Army field environment. The beam
multiplies the number of ammunition pallets per lift. There are 9 adjustable hook positions at each end of the
beam. These adjustments position the corresponding slings to achieve tight pallet groups resulting in the least
space in field storage or on tactical transport. The center hook is for handling one sling, when required, without
removal of the single beam from the lifting crane. The Beam Hooks are designed with a thumb latch to allow
opening of the hook with one hand under no-load. The hook stays open until loaded by inserting the master ring of
the lifting sling. This design is to reduce effort in hooking and un-hooking from the beam since it is intended that
the beam be used with two sets of slings; one set in-use and one being pre-hooked. This concept speeds up pallet
load transfer by keeping the crane hook in nearly constant motion.

SLING, ADJUSTABLE DOUBLE BASKET
P/N AC200000331
NSN 9Z 3940-01-209-6008
APPLICATION. Adjustable Double Basket Sling is used with the 2,500 Pound Capacity Crane mounted on the
M977 HEMTT to lift all types of conventional ammunition pallets. The basket loops are adjustable to fit under the
pallet “double wings” and form a lift angle between the chain and the top of the pallet which is 45 to 60 degrees. A
lesser angle may result in damage to the top of the pallet load (stack of wood boxes or a combination of wood
dunnage and metal containers). The maximum conventional ammunition pallet girth requires 18 feet of chain to
achieve a 45 degree angle.
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT. HEMTT Crane (or another crane 2,500 pounds or larger capacity), Multiple Leg
Top-Lift Ammunition Sling, Multiple Leg Projectile Pallet Sling.
