Family Classification of Owen Oil Tools Explosives Products

Other topics:

Get Acrobat ReaderOCS is the regulatory compliance programs administrator for Owen Oil Tools, Inc., a manufacturer of specialty explosives including perforators, cutters, severing tools, detonators, and power charges. All explosives must be tested, classified, and approved prior to offering into commerce. OCS manages the explosive products approval program and documentation for OOT.

Many of OOT’s products are approved in family classes. A family class is a group of related items that are approved together using a net explosive weight (n.e.w.) range and a list of authorized explosive components. For example, an open-faced perforator family might include all open-faced (not capsule type) perforators containing no more than 22 grams of RDX, HMX, HNS, and/or PYX.

This page contains the approval documentation for most of OOT’s product families. If you require documentation that is not listed here, please send an email request to approvals@ocsresponds.com and be sure to include the OOT part number of the item you are inquiring about.

For additional details regarding OOT HAZMAT products, please see the HAZLIST section.
