Abstract Federal Supply Classification (FSC) is a commodity classification system that utilizes a 4-digit coding structure designed to serve the multiple functions of supply. The FSC system is developed for use in grouping related items of supply in the Federal Catalog System. The 4-digit FSC class always appears in the first four positions of each National Stock Number. The publication is a numeric listing of the FSC structure that shows the 78 groups and approximately 614 classes, plus the title and general coverage of each group and class in the 4-digit FSC code numbering system. The main inclusions, and exclusions, which delimit the coverage of a particular class, are shown. The publication is superseded on an as required basis.
