18) Question: (SOW Work Item 3.2 Propeller Replacement)

1. In 3.2 Propeller Replacement, paragraphs 3.2.2 and 3.2.2.6 for the removal and installation of the propeller, is the Navy supplying the withdrawal and installation collar assembly?

2. In 3.2 Propeller Replacement, paragraph 3.2.2.6, does the new GFE propeller come with a new

GFE key or is it the shipyards responsibility to supply the key material and machine and fit it to the tailshaft keyway and the propeller keyway?

3. In 3.2 Propeller Replacement, paragraph 3.2.2.5, is the shipyard to only inspect the taper fit of the new GFE propeller to the existing tailshaft and that blue fitting the new GFE propeller to the existing tailshaft would be a change order because the shipyard does not know what type of initial fit the new propeller has to the tailshaft to achieve an 80% fit over 90% of the taper surface?

Response:

1. All components needed for the installation of the propeller shall be supplied by the shipyard in accordance with the referenced tech documents.

2. The key shall be the shipyards responsibility in accordance with the referenced tech documents.

3. This statement is correct. If a blue fitting is required after checking the existing taper fit this would be growth work.
