    -===== Rule #2 __(____)__ ===== 
    -After the first two characters, up to the next four characters of each item code is a **first letter from each word** that would describe the type of item. 
    - 
    -The description for a part always starts with the **largest common group name**.  
    - 
    -For example, a __ABS 4” FITTING FEMALE ADAPTOR__ would be in our list as a __ABS ADAPTOR FEMALE FITTING 4”__ (note how MATERIAL comes first, as it's the most common) 
    - 
    -=== Examples === 
    -^      Description ^ Code   ^ 
    -^        45° elbow | 4      | 
    -^   Adaptor Female | AF     | 
    -^    90° Long Turn | 9LT    |
