2. The Contractor shall be within commuting distance from Tooele Army Depot. Commuting distance comprises Davis, Salt Lake, Tooele, and Utah Counties.

3. The Contractor shall be required to pass a First Article inspection test (FAT) for a quantity of 5 grenade tops and 5 grenade bottoms before beginning any further work. The 10 parts total will be inspected both by Tooele Army Depot (TEAD) and Pine Bluff Arsenal. The Contractor shall pass both inspection teams criteria.

a. Additional practice parts can be supplied by TEAD, to allow development of the Contractor’s process. In this event, the number of parts of each that will be supplied is negotiable.

b. The Contract can be canceled if the Contractor does not pass the First Article test. In this event, Tooele Army Depot will be responsible solely for paying for the 10 first articles at the predetermined rate.

Part Description Grenade Top (Drawing 13-19-1015): 2.4 inch diameter, 0.86 inch thick at widest point, four beveled, 0.25 inch diameter through holes on a 1.565 B.C., One center hole threaded to 9/16-12 UNC . Two small v grooves on outer diameter. Surface area: 15.446 in2. Material: AL 6061-T6 ASTM B 211, cold rolled or AL6061-T651 ASTM B 211, cold rolled.

Grenade Bottom (Drawing 13-19-1016): 2.4 inch diameter, 0.320 thick at widest point, four ¼-20 holes on 1.565 B.C., one center, through hole, 1.125 diameter. Two small v grooves on outer diameter. Surface area: 11.47 in2.

Material: AL 6061-T6 ASTM B 211, cold rolled or AL 6061-T651 ASTM B 211, cold rolled.

Statement of Work The Contractor will apply an Alodine finish to the aluminum grenade tops and grenade bottoms per 7.3.1 of MIL- STD-171 and MIL-C-5541-Class 1A. Reference drawing #13-19-1015 and #13-19-1016. NOTE: Drawings are controlled documents and not for distribution.

Delivery

1. Grenade parts will be delivered and picked up by TEAD at the Contractor’s location on a weekly basis. The

Contractor shall complete a week’s delivery of parts in seven days.

a. TEAD will typically deliver from 2,000 to 6,000 grenade parts per week for processing, in multiple lots. The typical lot size ranges from 3,500 to 5,000 parts.

NOTE: This estimated rate of delivery may vary due to holiday weeks, equipment breakdowns, or other extenuating circumstances. TEAD shall not be penalized for delivering less than 2000 parts per week.

b. TEAD’s representative shall contact the Contractor on a weekly basis to coordinate that week’s delivery amount.

2. TEAD will deliver a minimum of 46,000 grenade tops and 46,000 grenade bottoms up to a maximum of 50,000 of each if necessary. TEAD will be financially responsible only for those parts that are actually completed by the Contractor.

3. The Contractor shall receive grenade parts in uniform cardboard boxes. The grenade parts are packaged separately within the boxes in cardboard dividers in the following configuration:

a. 250 grenade bottoms to a box, 125 grenade bottoms to a row, 2 rows.

b. 100 grenade tops to a box, 50 grenade tops to a row, 2 rows.

c. Each row is separated by a card board sheet.

Alodine Application

4. Grenade parts shall be removed from the boxes to be treated without damaging the packaging material.

5. The Contractor shall develop two processes, one for those parts not Alodined (new parts), and one for reworked parts requiring the Alodine to be removed and replaced. All of the parts will be treated the same for each process. The Contractor shall be responsible for performing their process repetitiously and warranting their workmanship.

6. The Contractor shall clean all grenade parts by placing them in a heated (180 degrees Fahrenheit) trichloroethylene tank.

a. The Contractor shall place each part in the tank twice for a minimum of 5 minutes each time, cooling the part in between each treatment. (Note: this can be done as a batch).

b. This cleaning process must be completed before the Alodine process.

7. It is recommended the Contractor have both a second cleaning process and an etching process to Alodine the grenade parts.

8. The grenade parts shall be left in the Alodine solution for a set time (recommended 2 minutes).

a. Parts not left in (the tank) long enough are under-exposed and are not properly coated and will be rejected by TEAD.

b. Parts left in too long have excess Alodine on the surface (powder or caking) and will be rejected.

9. The grenade parts shall be placed in the Alodine solution so that bubbles do not form on interior holes or threads or exterior grooves. The parts shall be lightly agitated in the Alodine solution. This can be done mechanically, by hand, or by pumping the liquid. Interior surfaces shall be checked through the inspection process.

10. The grenade parts shall be dried by blowing off excess rinse water with compressed air after the parts are removed from the final rinse tank. Water droplets left on can thin and remove the Alodine coating in that area of the grenade parts. Parts will be rejected that are spotty or have areas missing an Alodine coating.

Packaging

11. Once the alodine process is completed, finished parts shall be packaged in individual small plastic bags and repackaged in the same configuration as they were received.

a. The Contractor shall be responsible for providing plastic bags

b. The plastic bag shall be capable of protecting the coated aluminum part from scuffing and other damage during movement as well as from any residual machining fluid remaining in the packaging material.

Quality Assurance/Inspection

12. TEAD shall supply boxes of parts that are identified and fabricated with a certain lot of material. Metal lots cannot be mixed. As such, any individual box or lot of parts cannot be mixed with another box or lot of parts, they must be kept separate.

13. The Contractor shall provide a detailed traveler (routing document) that lists each step of their Alodine process for both new and reworked parts.

a. This traveler shall be used for each box of parts and accompany the parts during the Contractor’s process.

b. Each step shall be dated and initialed by the operator after completion.

c. A certification document identifying each box number shall be packaged in each box.

i. TEAD will already have a traveler in the box from TEAD machining and inspection process.

ii. The Contractor shall place their certification along with TEAD’s traveler on the top layer of the box.

14. The Contractor shall provide random inspection of grenade parts by a quality inspection person (not working as a production operator) prior to closing the boxes. Inspection should meet the inspection criteria from MIL-STD-1916, verification IV (in table 1 and table 2) to determine the quantity inspected per lot.

a. TEAD will initially require the following quantities:

i. Bottoms

1. Box quantity 250 parts- randomly select and visually inspect 13 parts.

2. Partial Box quantities, randomly select and visually inspect 1 per 20 parts

ii. Tops

1. Box quantity 100 parts- randomly select and visually inspect 5 parts.

2. Partial Box quantities, randomly select and visually inspect 1 per 20 parts

b. After consultation with the Contractor, the quantity required to be inspected may be adjusted after two (2) weeks of operation.

NOTE: Adjustment is not guaranteed: the Contractor shall plan, as a minimum, to inspect the above quantities for the entirety of the project.

15. Grenade tops and bottoms shall be inspected in the following manner:

a. Visually inspect the Alodine coating on all surfaces: the inspector will be looking for missed

Alodine spots. Attention should be given to visually inspect the grooves on the outside diameter and within threaded holes for full Alodine coating.

b. The inspector shall verify water droplets have not been left on the part which have thinned or eaten away the Alodine coverage.

c. The inspector shall verify the coating or surface around any attachment points used in the alodine process (such as a hole that is used to hang a part on a hook) is not damaged when the operator has removed the part from the spring clips.

16. Parts shall not touch other parts when hanging them on racks during the Alodine process. The inspector shall look for any spots (light Alodine coverage or missed Alodine coverage) created from parts touching other parts.

17. If, during inspection, a part is found not fully covered, the entire box shall be inspected 100%. Those parts missed shall be Alodined again. Full coverage is required. Parts may be Alodined (reworked) up to three times.

18. The Contractor’s traveler shall contain a spot for quality control to sign or stamp.

19. Certification sheets for each box shall be placed on the top of the box under the lid. The boxes shall be taped closed after the inspection is complete.

20. TEAD will use an item pickup/delivery traveler to annotate what boxes are being delivered and the quantities. The traveler will be signed by the Contractor verifying they received the boxes. This traveler will be used for the entire order. The traveler will be signed when TEAD representative picks up the completed quantity also. Any discrepancies shall be annotated on this traveler.

21. The Contractor shall provide written documentation certifying the finished process on the grenade parts when the parts are picked up. This will include the box number, quantity, and date of treatment. These are separate certification sheets that are provided. One certification sheet for each box shall be supplied. These sheets will be used to determine the quantity Alodined so payment can be determined for that week.

22. The Contractor shall provide to TEAD documentation (as evidence that) they are meeting the salt spray certification on monthly basis (as a minimum) as required per MIL-STD-171. The Contractor shall provide proof they are monitoring and adjusting their tank concentrations on a weekly basis (as a minimum), but preferably on a daily basis.

23. Warranty of Workmanship. The Contractor shall provide the parts properly finished. Parts not properly finished shall be reworked at the Contractor’s expense.
