Specification Feedback The intent of this section is to inform all users that a spec feedback mechanism is in place, and is located on the MLCA Naval Engineering Division’s website. Spec feedback is a very important part of our overall continuous improvement process, and is crucial to specification development. It will allow spec writers to capture all specification-related lessons learned, and avoid mistakes or ambiguities in follow-on availabilities. All feedback will be reviewed, evaluated, and responded to in a timely manner.

If you have access to the CGWeb (Intranet), please use the following link, which will connect you to the MLCA(v) Naval Engineering website, for submitting your feedbacks:

CHECKPOINT 1 – COATING SYSTEM COMPLIANCE

Ensure all coatings are in compliance with COMDTINST M10360.3, Appendix C.

CHECKPOINT 2 - PAINT STORAGE

Ensure all coatings are kept at a temperature of 65 to 85°F at all times, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s).

CHECKPOINT 3 - AMBIENT CONDITIONS

Ensure surface and surrounding temperatures are each between 50 and 90°F for water-based coatings, and 35 and 95°F for other coatings, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s).

Ensure maximum relative humidity (RH) is as follows, from surface preparations through final curing of topcoat: 50% for tanks, voids, and vent plenum; and 85% for all other areas, unless otherwise specified by manufacturer(s).

Ensure surface temperature is at least 5°F above the dew point, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s).

CHECKPOINT 4 - PRE-SURFACE PREPARATION

Remove surface contaminants (soluble salts, loose rust, mud, and marine growth) with low pressure fresh water wash down (maximum 5,000 psi). If oil and grease are present, perform solvent cleaning, as per SSPC SP-1.

CHECKPOINT 5 - SURFACE PREPARATION

Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3).

Ensure cleanliness of prepared surface is as per specification (i.e.: SSPC SP-12, SP-11, SP-10…).

Verify surface anchor profile (1.5-3.5 mils for abrasive-blasted steel surfaces; 1.0 mil (minimum) for power-tool cleaned surfaces; 1.0-1.5 mils for abrasive-blasted aluminum surfaces); and 1.5 –2.5 for surfaces to be coated w/single coat of inorganic zinc).

Measure soluble salt conductivity (5 measurements per 1000 sqft) – maximum threshold: 70 microsiemens/cm for non-submerged surfaces and 30 microsiemens/cm for submerged surfaces.

CHECKPOINT 6 - PRIMER COAT APPLICATION

Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3).

Verify proper mixing and stand-in (induction) times.

Ensure no paint is applied when the temperature is expected to drop to freezing before the paint has dried.

Ensure surfaces are completely dry, unless otherwise allowed by the Coating Manufacturer(s).

Perform visual inspection for holidays and other defects.

CHECKPOINT 7 – STRIPE COAT APPLICATION

Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3).

Ensure overcoating window is as per manufacturer’s instructions.

After primer coat (mist coat after inorganic zinc), brush-apply un-thinned coat of same primer paint over edges, weld seams, cut-outs, and areas of complex geometries @ 3-4 mils wet film thickness (WFT).

CHECKPOINT 8 – TOP COAT APPLICATION

Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3).

Ensure overcoating window is as per manufacturer’s instructions.

3. REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Protective and safety measures. The Contractor shall accomplish the following:

· Before removing each propeller or propeller nut, fit a shore from the floor of the dock to one propeller blade near the root, to prevent shock transmission to reduction gear, as necessary.

· Protect propeller blade edges and blade roots with suitable covers, at all times until reinstallation, to prevent damage.

3.2 Work to be accomplished. The Contractor shall accomplish the following for each propeller, using drawing provided by the Coast Guard Inspector as guidance.

3.2.1 Removal. Remove the propeller to a suitable repair shop.

NOTICE!

If it becomes necessary to apply heat to facilitate propeller removal, ensure that the hub temperature never exceeds 500 degrees Fahrenheit; in addition, ensure that gland, packing ring, fill and vent plugs are removed, and the adjacent shafting and canvas under the blade edge guards are protected from flame impingement.

3.2.2 Inspection. Visually inspect the propeller for any damage, cracks, and other defects. Examine and record the suction and pressure face thickness, blade tip profiles, leading and trailing edges, contours, track, width, diameter, taper, pitch, and keyway of the propeller in accordance with ISO 484/2, Class I. Submit a written CFR.

3.2.3 Polishing. Polish the propeller to a uniform 63 micro-inch RMS finish.

3.2.4 Propeller hub fitting check. In the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector and with the key in place, carefully check the fit of the propeller hub bore to the shaft taper by applying Prussian blue to the shaft taper.

3.2.4.1 Uniform fit. Obtain a uniform fit of 60 percent contact over the taper, with a slightly heavier fit on the larger end. Do not heat the shaft taper to compensate for a poor fit.

3.2.4.2 Propeller fit. If the fit is less than 60 percent, hand grind/stone the propeller hub bore to achieve the required fit.

WARNING!

Do not machine the shaft taper.

3.2.4.3 Location inscription. When 60 percent fit has been obtained, make a small inscription on the shaft to mark the propeller location. Use this mark as a reference in final assembly.

3.3 Propeller Installation.

3.3.1 Cleaning. For the final assembly, the propeller bore and shaft taper surfaces shall be clean and free of bluing, lubricants, dirt, foreign particles, or any other substance, which would hinder moving the propeller along the taper. Install the propeller with dry metal-to-metal contact to obtain the maximum frictional force for torque transmission. Renew the rubber O-rings and packing before reassembly, if applicable.

3.3.2 Balancing. Perform single-plane balancing of both reconditioned propeller and cap on rotational balancing equipment to ensure freedom from vibration in accordance with MIL-STD-167-1 for Type II (internally excited) vibration; observe the following requirements:

3.3.2.1 Material removal. Remove material as evenly as possible from over the entire blade surface (both suction and pressure faces) but not closer to the blade edges than 10 percent of the blade width, to prevent "thin spots" when balancing the propeller.

3.3.2.2 Addition of weight. Add weight to inside the propeller cap by welding, if necessary, to balance the cap, ensuring that the added material is clear of the propeller nut, the locking key, and the end of the propeller shaft.

3.3.2.3 Restrictions. Ensure that the maximum permissible residual unbalance does not exceed the value determined by the following formulas for the speeds specified in table I below if no specific maximum permissible residual unbalance value provided by the Coast Guard Inspector.

U = 4W/N

Where U = Maximum allowable residual unbalance (ounce-inches) W = Weight of rotating part (pounds) N = Maximum operating speed (revolution/minute)

3.3.3 Assembly. With the propeller installed on the taper in the same position as when fitted, install the propeller nut and drive up the propeller until it is advanced forward about 1/16" beyond the inscribed mark as specified in 3.2.4.3 (Location inscription). Lock the nut in place with an appropriate locking device.

NOTICE!

It is prohibited to use grease, oil, or other substances on the taper to help drive the propeller.

3.3.4 Void filling. When applicable, the Contractor shall fill all internal voids in the propeller hub and cap with rust preventive compound conforming to MIL-PRF-16173. Renew all brass plugs.

3.3.5 Adhere to the following warnings:

· Do not heat the propeller hub, to compensate for a poor fit on the shaft taper.

· Do not machine the shaft taper to achieve the required fit.

3.3.5.1 Lock propeller nut in place with new stainless steel lock washer or monel cap screws.

3.4 Propeller change-out. The Contractor shall be aware that the Government reserves the right to furnish a propeller to be installed in-place of the one removed. When the Government exercises this right, the Contractor shall turn over the removed propeller to the Coast Guard PA as a MTI item. If a Change Request has been authorized and released by the KO, the Contractor shall inspect the Government-furnished propeller, and submit a CFR including any additional work that may be required to install the new propeller to the existing shaft.
