4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS

4.1. Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the 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 disapproved by the Government.

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

4.1.1. Responsibility for compliance. All items shall 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 program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of ensuring that all products or supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract. Sampling inspection, as a part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain conformance to requirements, however this does not authorize submission of own defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the government to accept defective material.

4.1.2. Certificates of compliance. When certificates of compliance are submitted, the Government reserves the right to inspect such items to determine the validity of the certification.

4.2. Certification of inspections. The inspection requirements specified herein are classified as follows:

a. First article inspection (see 4.3)

b. Quality conformance inspection (see 4.4)

4.3. First article inspection. When a first article is required (see 3.1 and 6.2), it shall be examined for the applicable end item visual and dimensional defects in accordance with the sampling and inspection provisions of MIL-STD- 1492.

4.4. Quality conformance inspection. Unless otherwise specified, sampling for inspection shall be performed in accordance with MIL-STD-105.

4.4.1. Component and material inspection. In accordance with 4.1, above, components and materials shall be inspected and tested in accordance with all the requirements of referenced specifications, purchase order descriptions, and standards unless otherwise excluded, amended, modified or qualified in this purchase description or applicable purchase documents. In addition to the quality assurance provisions of the subsidiary specifications and purchase descriptions, inspection shall be performed on the components listed below and acceptance shall be based on the supplier’s certificate of compliance with the requirements specified for these components.

Component Requirement reference

4.4.2.2. Dimensional examination or raincoat and pouch. The raincoat and pouch shall be examined for dimensional defects. Any dimension that is not within the established tolerance shall be classified as a defect.

4.4.2.3 Examination of preparation for delivery requirements. An examination shall be made to determine that the packaging, packing, and marking complies with the list below. The sample unit shall be one shipping container fully prepared for delivery except that it need not be closed. Defects of closure listed below shall be examined on shipping containers fully prepared for delivery. The lot size shall be the number of shipping containers in the end item inspection lot. .

4.4.2.3 Inspection levels and acceptable quality levels (AQLs), The Inspection levels and acceptable quality levels, expressed in defects per hundred units shall be as follows:

4.5. Test methods.

4.5.1 Hydrostatic resistance. The hydrostatic resistance of the sealed seem areas of the raincoat shaIl be determined in accordance with Method 5514 of FED-STD-191 except for the following: The sealed seam area of the fabricated raincoat, sample unit, shall be tested without cutting or otherwise damaging the raincoat. the seam shall be flexed 10 times in the following manner. The raincoat sealed seam shall be grasped using the thumb and fingers of each hand in such a manner that the thumbs are parallel to each other and approximately 1/2 inch beyond (outside) the edges of the sealant. With the seams held firmly in the above manner, the thumbs shall be brought together so cloth and sealant are is contact. The sealed area shall be flexed vigorously 10 times with the cloth and sealant in contact with itself throughout test. The flexing action shall be such that when fully flexed in either direction there shall be a minimum of two inches between each thumb nail when the flexed area is fully extended with the test area in contact with itself' at all times. The test area shall be visually examined for the characteristics indicated in 3.11.1 prior to conducting the hydrostatic test. The hydrostatic test shall be made with the sealed seam in the center of the 4-1/2 inch diameter test area with the uncoated side of the seam in contact with the water. The hydrostatic head shall be raised to 25 on each sealed seam (three on the cape and two on the coat) for a total of five. The five determinations shall be reported separately as pass or fail . No more than one of the five areas tested shall show 1 leakage in less than 10 minutes. A failure of the raincoat is defined as a hydrostatic failure in two or more of the five determinations.

4.5.2. Blocking resistance. Method 5872 of FED-STD-191 shall be followed except that the sample unit shall be one completely fabricated raincoat and that the test specimen shall be prepared by folding the raincoat so that two inner sealed seam surfaces are superimposed and are in the center of the glass plates.
