Differences between MIL-A-8625 and MIL-A-8626
February 3, 2014
Q. Can you please brief me about MIL-A-8626? And also please let me know differences between MIL-A-8625 and MIL-A-8626?

A. Hi KK. If you take MIL-A-8625, and add a dollop of "telephone" or "chinese whispers" you get MIL-A-8626 :-)
If you can give us some context we may be able to dig deeper, but for now I have to presume it's nothing but a typo. Good luck.

Q. Hi Tedd,
I am working on the evaluation RoHS Compliance status for our customer parts.
There is a part which is anodized per MIL-A-8626. Even I thought that this might be a typo.
But the below two links trigger a thouht like MIL-A-8626 may exist.

A. Hi Kulal. There are two typos in your response. That's not a complaint, just an observation from which you can perhaps draw the conclusion that searching the billions of pages of the web to find a few instances of this typo may be no more than a fool's errand.
But no one would dare to claim that they are anodizing parts per a spec unless they have a copy of the spec on hand, would they? :-)
So just talk to your shop manager who has "anodized per MIL-A-8626" and simply get a copy of it from him/her.
