EXAMPLE: In certain instances, some of the listed words may be used as the first word in a basic noun phrase, as in "MACHINE SHOP" or "TOOL KIT".
c. When the noun or noun phrase represents an item to which types, grades, or varieties are applicable, the remainder of the first part of the title shall consist of one or more modifiers.
(1) A modifier may be a single word or a qualifying phrase. The first modifier shall serve to narrow the area of concept established by the basic name and succeeding modifiers must continue a narrowing of item concept by expressing more particular characteristics. A word qualifying a modifying word shall precede the word it qualifies, thereby forming a modifying phrase ("BRACKET, UTILITY LIGHT"). It is to be noted the word "UTILITY" qualifies the word "LIGHT" and precedes it in the modifying phrase.
(2) A modifier shall be separated from the noun or noun phrase by a comma and from any preceding modifier by a comma. The hyphen in compound words and the dash in type designators are not punctuation marks.
(3) The conjunction "or" and the preposition "for" shall not be used.
(4) The first part of the title shall be separated from the second part of the title by a dash.
302.3 Second part of title. The second part of the title shall consist of such additional modifiers, modifying phrases, or Government type designators as required. Modifiers indicating what an
item is (its shape, structure, or form) or what the item does (its function) are preferable to modifiers indicating the application (what it is used for) or location of the item (where it is used)
Example:
SPRING, HELICAL COMPRESSION - RECOIL ADAPTER
First Part of Title
Second Part of Title
a. When two or more drawings are similar, and the parts detailed on them perform the same general function, they shall be distinguished by additional modifiers indicating their location, relative position, forms, or dimensions, for example: RIB, WING SECTION, INNER-STATION
