ATC accepts orders for our parts using designations with or without the
“ATC” prefix. Both methods of defining the part number are equivalent,
i.e., part numbers referenced with the “ATC” prefix are interchangeable to
parts referenced without the “ATC” prefix. Customers are free to use either
in specifying or procuring parts from American Technical Ceramics.
