Chapter 6: Stiffeners
Stiffener Part Number Description
Part numbers are printed on the end of each stiffener with the last two numbers designating the gauge of
the material.
Example: CTS-206314 will be printed on a 14 gauge, standard two-ring stiffener. If the stiffener was 8
gauge, it would change the part number to CTS-206308.
The part numbers in the following tables use an “XX” at the end of the number to represent the gauge of
the material.
