overhaulable
Able to rebuild
Overhaulable describes something capable of being overhauled—taken apart, inspected, repaired, and restored to working condition.
The term appears most often in aviation and mechanical contexts, where equipment must meet standards for repair rather than replacement: The engine was deemed overhaulable and sent to the shop.
Some parts are overhaulable; others must be scrapped.
