Part Number
Rope Thimble · Military specification (MIL series) · 4 stocked variants
Reading the part number. MIL-F-17280 cites military specification MIL-F-17280. A spec citation covers every item made to that document, so the NSN — not the spec number — is what uniquely identifies this rope thimble; the cross-referenced stock number below is the exact item.
Because MIL-F-17280 is a specification-level reference, each conforming variant carries its own National Stock Number. The table below lists every variant we stock, with its decoded characteristics and published price — open the NSN record to see the full specification and order that exact item.
