Reading the part number. MS51840-26P breaks down as MS51840 — the Military Standard sheet that fixes the part's design — plus the dash/suffix code 26P, which selects the exact size, material, or finish variant from the tables on that standard. Two parts sharing the MS51840 base are the same design in different variants.
