This is a Brand Name Justification form from NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers for the procurement of 12 EA Tail Piece components from Hunt Valve Company, Inc. (CAGE: 11859) for overhauling the CHT (Correction, Holding and Transferring) sewage diverting valve system.

The requirement specifies part number D-6517 TAIL PIECE, which must conform to manufacturer drawing D-6665 REV.D, PC NO. 2, SPEC: ASTM B61, with dimensions of 8" ID and 12-3/8" OD, made from MIL-B-24480 BRONZE material. The justification indicates this is a brand name requirement because Hunt Valve Company owns the proprietary rights to the design and specifications, and using parts from other manufacturers would prevent proper system function. These components are direct replacements for existing systems and must coordinate with the current valve and pipe configuration for sewage diverting valves. The form indicates this represents the minimum requirements of the government and includes certification that the justification precludes competition to the maximum extent practicable.
