TO 1-1-700 10.8 STEEL CABLES. Whether made of plain low carbon steel or stainless steel (CRES), cables are highly susceptible to corrosion. The presence of bare spots or cracks (see Figure 10-9) in the plastic cladding on clad cables and gaps where the protective CPC coating is missing on other cables are the main contributing factors to the corrosion of cables. Dirt, grime, and rust that collect between cable strands lead to more severe corrosion and wear that eventually cause cable failure. Inspect accessible cables for these conditions as well as for signs of wear, fraying, binding, kinks, excessive dirt/grease build-up, and corrosion. Check the cable for corrosion by twisting the fibers and checking for rust in the interior of the cable. Use the following procedures to treat steel cable corrosion: Solvent to clean steel cables. Excessive solvent will remove internal cable lubricant and allow the cable strands to abrade and further corrode. a. If the surface of a cable is corroded, relieve cable tension and carefully force the cable open by reverse twisting. Visually inspect the interior. Corrosion on the interior strands constitutes failure and the cable must be replaced. b. If no internal corrosion is detected, remove loose external rust/corrosion with a clean, dry, coarse-weave rag or fiber brush and clean the cable with a clean cloth dampened with MIL-PRF-680, MIL-PRF-32295, Type II, or A-A-59601, Type II or III Dry Cleaning/Degreasing Solvent or other cleaner as specified by system-specific manuals or the equipment c.

The use of metallic wool will cause dissimilar metal particles to become embedded in the cables and create further corrosion problems (galvanic corrosion). Use only a clean cloth dampened with, MIL- PRF-680, MIL-PRF-32295, Type II, or A-A- 59601, Type II or III Dry Cleaning/Degreasing MIL-PRF-16173, COMPOUND, CORROSION PREVEN- TIVE 37 c. After thorough cleaning, apply a thin film of either MIL-PRF-81309, Type II; MIL-L-87177, Type I or II, Grade B; or MIL-PRF-16173, Class II, Grade 4 Water Displacing CPC to the cable surface either by aerosol spray or with a cloth dampened with the CPC. Follow with a liberal amount of MIL-PRF-16173, Class II, Grade 4 CPC applied with a non-metallic bristle brush. Wipe off any excess CPC as excessive CPC build up will interfere with the operation of cables at fairleads, pulleys, or grooved bell-crank areas. 10-8 Change 3
TO 1-1-700 10.9 WATER ENTRAPMENT AREAS AND DRAIN HOLES. Drain holes should not be drilled by organizational or intermediate-level personnel unless authorized by the equipment System Program Manager (SPM) for the C-E-M equipment or its protective shelters, vans, and radomes. Corrosion is often found in water entrapment areas where proper drainage does not exist, where drain holes are not provided, and/or protective coatings are damaged. In many cases, drain holes located in water entrapment areas are ineffective either because of improper location or because they are plugged by sealants, fasteners, dirt, grease, or debris. Ensure all drain holes are open by inserting a probe, such as a pipe cleaner. The plugging of a single drain hole or the altering of the attitude of the equipment can trigger corrosion if salt water or other corrosives remain for any appreciable length of time in these entrapment areas. Frequent inspection and cleaning of low-point drains is a standard requirement. Take care to ensure that protective coatings remain intact in these areas. Water may accumulate in these areas following the washing or rinsing of equipment. If this is a recurring problem, develop procedures to prevent water accumulation. 10.10 BATTERY COMPARTMENTS AND BATTERY VENT OPENINGS. Batteries must be replaced at their prescribed time change interval to ensure good equipment operation and to prevent corrosion in the battery compartment and surrounding areas, sometimes very severe, caused by the physical breakdown of the battery and electrolyte leakage. Batteries are used many times in C-E-M equipment as backup power source to allow for temporary operation of the equipment and/or to prevent loss of a computer program when there is power outage. In spite of protective paint systems, corrosion preventive compounds, and venting provisions, battery compartments are high corrosion problem areas (see Figure 10- 10). If corrosion does occur in the battery compartment, consult Chapter 6 of TO 1-1-689-3, Chapter 7 of TO 1-1-691, and Chapter 5 of TO 35E4-192-2 for proper treatment procedures. Figure 10-10. Corroded Battery Compartment 10.11 NATURAL AND SYNTHETIC RUBBER PARTS. Natural and synthetic rubber are susceptible to attack by fungi, microbes, ozone, and ultraviolet light; and they deteriorate rapidly when exposed to direct sunlight. Natural and synthetic rubber shall not be painted or oiled. As a general rule, grease should not be applied to rubber parts, but some parts, such as O rings, require a grease coating (consult the appropriate system specific maintenance manual). Many types of rubber are subject to fungus growth (e.g. mold, mildew) which can cause deterioration of the rubber and corrosion of surrounding metal surfaces. If fungus and/or bacteria are noted on rubber parts such as electrical wiring jackets, rubber jacketed cords and cables, rubber grommets, O rings, etc., clean the parts and remove the fungus and bacteria per these procedures: 10-9
