Carter is the leading manufacturer of nozzles qualified in accordance with SAE AS5877 (MIL-N- 5877). The 64349H is listed as being qualified on the QPL. The specification defines four nozzles, D-1, D-1R, D-2 and D-2R. The D-1 and D-1R nozzles have an inlet body that includes a 45° elbow. The D-1R is a D-1 with the addition of a Hose End Regulator. The D-2 and D-2R (includes a regulator) have straight inlets. Both units have a military standard 6-bolt inlet flange in accordance with MS33786-40. In addition, the 64349 can be purchased with various options to tailor a nozzle to fit the system requirements. These additional options, although widely utilized in the military, are not covered by any particular specification.

The Carter 64349 is now available with a D-3 Inlet Coupling that can be changed from the D-1 to the D-2 configuration and vise versa. The new D-3 variable inlet has been approved for use and is listed on the QPL. This option can be procured as option N to the basic nozzle and it would replace either option H or J.
