Examination for preparation for delivery. A random sample of unit, intermediate and shipping containers (as applicable) shall be selected from each lot and examined for conformance with the preservation, packaging, packing, labeling and marking required in the contract or order Samples shall be selected in accordance with Military Standard MIL-STD-105, “SAMPLING PROCEDURES AND TABLES FOR INSPECTION BY ATTRIBUTES”, Inspection level II, AQL 6.5 expressed in terms of defects per hundred unit. For purposes of this examination, a lot shall be considered all shot presented for inspection at one time.
Regulatory requirements. In accordance with section 23.403 of the
Federal Acquisition Regulations, the Government’s policy is to acquire items composed of the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable, consistent with maintaining a satisfactory level of competition without adversely affecting performance requirements or exposing suppliers’ employees to undue hazards from the recovered materials. The term “recovered materials” means materials which have been collected or recovered from solid waste and reprocessed to become a source of raw materials as opposed to virgin raw materials. None of the above shall be interpreted to mean that the use of used products are allowed under this commercial item description unless otherwise specified.
Notes:
Purchaser should specify grit size and if certification of durability, hardness, size, and chemical composition is acceptable in lieu of actual lot-by-lot examination. If hardness values other than Rockwell C40 to C52 are desired, specific hardness values should be specified. It should be noted that Rockwell C30 (soft) grit will result in less aggresive abrasive action and higher durability, while values of Rockwell C55 to C65 will produce more aggresive abrasive action and lower durability. In either case hardness values other than Rockwell C40 to C52 will result in the values shown in Table I and stated chemical composition values becoming invalid.
The issue or revision of all documents referenced herein in effect on the date of the invitation for bids, request for quotation, or purchase order shall be used to determine compliance with these requirements.
