How Can Rowse Help?
Rowse has, for many years, been in the business of helping the military to acquire the right parts for its requirements, using the NSN parts format. All material items used by the military are catalogued into common stock-types. These have been catalogued and recognised by NATO, and are issued with a standardised 13-digit NATO Stock Number. This numeric code allows standardised NSN Parts to be used in all treaty countries (and some others), and includes all those supply items used by the military that are stock-listed under the NSN code. The term "stock-listed" refers to any item issued with a NSN, which can be identified by a standardised name and used interchangeably.
Such items include minor parts such as washers or pencils, as well as critical communication equipment, ammunition and weapons. Nothing is omitted from the NSN catalogue, and we can help you find the most outdated and obscure parts, including office equipment, vehicles and transport, medical and dental supplies and domestic furnishings.
Rowse can help you find any NSN Part you need, using our specialist NSN search feature, which will give you an instant quote for the part number entered.
