Q&A (AMENDMENT 0001

Questions & Answers (Q&A) Solicitation W9127N21Q0110

STS Link Bars, Bonneville Lock & Dam Oregon

Question:

Can you clarify paint ends black? Is this the plate welded on the ends? Would you like the same brand of paint on the ends? Also do threads need to be free of paint? If so what preservation method would you like on the threads? I would recommend dry film conforming to MIL-L-46010 this will preserve the threads and dry to a lubricated film this will make install much easier.

Answer:

We have two different sizes of bars, the tips/welded plates are painted black to delineate which is which. The measurement of the plates / holes needs to be exact or the bars will not work and will be rejected. The threads need to be free of paint and this can occur as other contractors have painted and then drilled the holes. Utilizing a dry film is not a requirement for the contract.

Devoe was bought out by PPG and the bar rust now only comes in premixed colors. At current there is no way to color match the color chip. I can get a grey but it may not be exact.

There are other bar rust coatings on the market, the color needs to be a medium gray with black tips on CLIN 0002, ES-C-143 JD Link Bar.

Can the end user elaborate on the statement ” WRAP BARS FOR OUTDOOR STORAGE” ? Standard practice would be to foam wrap them to prevent paint damage but inherently the foam will deteriorate over time. What do they have in mind for packaging material? How long will they be stored?

Generally they have a Tyvek like wrap that protects them from the rain/snow. They are stored outside until install.

They could be stored for up to a year or more depending on which size of screen is in the pit at that time.

It's not possible to surface prep or coat the interior of the tube, therefore the part will corrode from the inside. We suggest the end of the tubes be seal welded to prevent water infiltration.

Please follow the drawing specification with the 1/8 fillet weld inside tube as far as possible. There are thirteen more holes in the tube, and it will not be water tight.
