Commercial Item Descriptions (CID)

A number of Coilcraft products have a Commercial Item Description (CID) issued by the US government's Defense Supply Center. A CID describes a commercial product that satisfies the government's needs in terms of its function, performance specifications or critical physical requirements.

Agencies have been instructed to avoid government-unique requirements and contractors are being urged to use commercially available products that have a CID. This is part of a shift by the Department of Defense toward performance-based specifications and standards in place of MIL-SPECS and MIL-STDS.

These Coilcraft product families currently have Commercial Item Descriptions. If you have any problems with the CID links below, please contact us directly.
