THREAD SAMPLE REQUIREMENT:

In order to insure the performance of all future thread purchases, UNICOR will perform sew trials on all threads.

Thread samples are required to perform the sew trials and are a consideration for contract award.

All thread samples submitted shall have marked on the outside of the package "SAMPLE", along with the solicitation number and UNICOR’s part number (example: THD0038). A certificate of conformance shall be included with the sample which indicates the thread conforms to the line item description contained in the solicitation.

SEW TRIAL PROCEDURE:

Equipment to be used for the sew trial: Single Needle Lock Stitch (301 Stitch) with reverse capabilities. Machine speed shall be 5000 revolutions per minute and 10 to 12 stitches per inch.

Materials to be used for sew trial: Three (3) 12" x 12", 10 oz Denim squares.

Process: The equipment will be threaded and adjusted with the trial thread. The individual performing the thread trial will sew forward across the test square to within ½" of the end of the test square. The tester will then reverse the machine and sew in reverse back across the test square to within ½" of the end of the test square. This will be repeated 10 times on each test square. A completed test square will have 20 rows of stitches when complete. Each row of stitches will be sewn at a 3500 to 4000 RPM. The tester will perform this on each of the three test squares. The number of thread breaks or thread failures will be recorded.

Scoring: The number of thread failures will be totaled and divided by three. This number will be subtracted from 10 to determine the score for the sew trial. Any score less than 8.5 will eliminate participation consideration for award.
