REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR)
If your Steel Wheel Roller needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user, are the only
one who can tell us what you do not like about your equipment. Let us know why you do not like the
design or performance.
All non-Aviation/Missile EIRs and PQDRs must be submitted through the Product Data Reporting and
Evaluation Program (PDREP) Web site. The PDREP site is:
https://www.pdrep.csd.disa.mil/.
If you do not have Internet access, you may submit your information using an SF 368 (Product Quality
Deficiency Report). You can send your SF 368 using email, regular mail, or fax using the addresses/fax
numbers specified in DA PAM 750-8, The Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS) Users
Manual. We will send you a reply.
CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any corrosion
problems with this item be reported so that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent
the problem in future items. Corrosion specifically occurs with metals. It is an electrochemical process that causes
the degradation of metals. It is commonly caused by exposure to moisture, acids, bases, or salts. An example is the
rusting of iron. Corrosion damage in metals can be seen, depending on the metal, as tarnishing, pitting, fogging,
surface residue, and/or cracking. Plastics, composites, and rubbers can also degrade. Degradation is caused by
thermal (heat), oxidation (oxygen), solvation (solvents), or photolytic (light, typically UV) processes. The most
common exposures are excessive heat or light. Damage from these processes will appear as cracking, softening,
swelling, and/or breaking.
SF Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report (PDQR) should be submitted to the address specified in
DA PAM 750-8, The Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS) Users Manual.
