    Gas turbine engine components like turbine supports and combustion chambers were being shipped in various colors ranging from light straw to dark blues and purples due to oxidation during the heat treatment process, according to a commercial service letter from Rolls-Royce. The discoloration was not caused by engine overheating but rather the furnace atmosphere and would not impact the parts' functionality or performance.

    furnace atmosphere in which these part:; are subjected.
    This discoloration will not affect the function of the part
    and is not cause for rejection.
