4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unlass otherwise specified in the

I contract or purchase order, the contractor is responsible for the performance Of all inspection requirements (examinations and tests) as specified herein.

Except as otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the contractor may use his own or any other facilities suitable for the performance of the inspection requirements specified herein, unless disappro~ed by the Government.

The Government reserves the right to perform any of the inspections set forth in this specif icatiori.where such inspections are deemed necessary “to ensure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.

4.1.i Responsibility for compliance. All items $hell meet all requirements of sections 3 and 5. The inspection set forth in this specification shall become a part of the contractor’s overall inspection system or quality .programs The absence of eny inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of ensuring that all products or supplies submitted to the Goveraausn.t.for.acceptance.,coz@y with al 1 requir-ents of the contract. Sampling inspection, as part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain corrformsnce to requirements, however, this does not authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it conmit the Government to ●ccept defective material.

1+.5 Methods of inspection.

4.5.1 Measure of stiffness.

4.5.1.1 Stiffness before ~oaking. The leather shall be tested for stiffness in accordance wicb Method 4212 of FED-STD-311, except that the epeci.mens shall be preflexed as follows:

a. Loosen knob (G). Using knob (H) slowly rotate the top dial (K) in a counterclockwise direction until the specimen clamp indicator (I) shows that the specimen has been twisted 90 degreee. Use a uniform rate nf rotation chat will take 6 to 5 seconds tn mrist “the specimen through 90 degrees.

“b. Sr.verse rotation to the clockwise direction and continue rotating slowly until the specimen c18mp indicator (I) has paseed tkte ozixinal reference

I 1ine indicated ,,Dnthe l,ovqrdial (J) by .appro-tely 4S degxmas. Again reverse the direction of rntation and elowly realign the specimen clcimp indicator (I) vith,,the ,?rigi.aal.rqf~~ence, li.~ .id,icaced,an the k.wer .$ial (J)

I c. Lock top dial (K) by turning knob (G) until tight, then reeet dial (K) to read 270 degreee.

I d. Repeat the flexing nperation by following steps a, b, and c. When the second flexing cycle is-completed, loosen knob- (G),-turn upper dial (K) slowly

{4 to 5 seconds for 90 degrees rotatinn) in a counterclockwise directinn using knob (H), until the specimen clamp indicator (1) shows 90 degrees Cwist. F&ad the angle of torsion ,from the upper dial (K) and record the value co the nearea t 5 degrees. The angle of torsion of each specimen shall be reported to the nearest 5 degrees.

4.5.1.2 Stiffness after soaking. If the stiffness requirements specified for befnre soaking are ant met, then do not test for stiffness after eoakiag. Any individual specimen exceeding the maximum stiffness values specified for befnre soaking shall not be tested for etiffnese after eoaking. The specimens shall be immersed in 1,000 mL of distilled water at 1400F + 50F for 20 hours + 2 hours.

Complete immersion of the apecimena shall be accm-plished cover on’the vea.eel used fur immersion of the specimens.

by placing-a flnating After the required

!41L-L-40051E innnersion period, the specimens shall be removed from the water and recondi-tioned in accordance with standard etmespheric conditions as specified- in Method 4212. The reconditioned specimens shall be placed flesh side down on a rule graduated in decimal inches and the distance between the bench marks shall be measured to the nearest 0.05 inch. If the distance is 3.fi to 3.6 inches, teat the specimen in accordance with Method 4212 and the exceptions noted in 4.5.1.1.

If the distance is 3.2 inches or less, the specimen shall be reported as e test failure. If the distance between bench marks is 3.25 to 3.35 inches, the specimen shall be stretched before testing. To stretch the specimen, place the specimen on the rule and align one of the bench marks with a division line on the rule. Hold the specimen ageinst the rule by placing the finger tip of one hand on the aligned bench mark. With the thumb and index finger of the other .

hand, lightly grip the specimen near the aligned bench mark, then slide the finger and thumb along the specimen to the other bench mark while exerting pressure on the specimen that is srsfficient to obtain the required distance between the bench marks. If the required distance between the bench marke has been obtained (3.4 to 3.6 inches), test the specimens in accordance with Method 4212 and the exceptions noted in 4.5.1.1. If the distance between the bench marks is greater than 3.6 inches discard the specimen and test a new specimen selected from the same 12 by 12 inch test sample of leather from”which the discarded specimen waa obtained. The’ new specimen ahail be tested for stiffsi’ess before and after soaking. The test results obtained when the discarded specimen was tested for stiffness before soaking shall not be reported.

The weighed specimen shall be placed inside the cover with the flesh aide of the specimen next to the inside of the cover. Place the rubber gasket inside the cover and against the grain surface of the leather specimen. Add 100 ML of 23°C distilled water to the container.

Uith a dropping bottle pipette, carefully place (do not drop) three small (approximately 3/16 inch diameter or 0.05 ML volume per drop) of Nujol mineral wil on the flesh surface of the specimen. Each ,drop shall be in a different location. After 5 minutes inmnediately observe the drops from an angle of approximately 450 for evidence of penetration of the oi 1 into the leather at the oil-leather interface or wicking of the oil into the laather at the edges of the drops. The mineral oil shall have a saybolt viscosity of 360/390 at 10@F specific gravity o,f0.880/0.900 at 60°F (see 6.7).
