Material Description. The type (see 3.5.8)
refers to the wear performance of the carpet and shall be indicated
on the part drawing.
Material Identification. The material shall be constructed using
synthetic fibers, dyed and finished with an approved backing to
become acceptable in color, pattern and physical properties as
outlined in this specification.
Symbols. The code defines the material
construction and will be assigned by the responsible
department.

solar absorbing glass, contact the appropriate Materials Engineer.
All interior materials are developed to be used in vehicles with
solar glass; therefore, performance may be compromised if used in
non-solar glass vehicles.
