Quality assurance.
Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the contractor is responsible for the performance of all inspection, examination, and test requirements 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, examinations, or tests set forth in this description where such inspections, examinations, and tests are deemed necessary to assure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.
Responsibility for compliance. All items shall meet the requirements specified herein. The inspection set forth in this description shall become a part of the contractors overall inspection system or quality program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the description 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 part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain conformance to requirements, however, this does not authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to accept defective material.
Sampling inspection. The supplier shall randomly select the number of samples in table VI that is applicable to the quantity of items being purchased. Each sample item shall be inspected to determine conformance with the examination and the dimensional inspection requirements of this description. Any sample failing to meet all requirements specified herein shall be considered a defective item. If the number of defective items is equal to or less than the quantity specified under the “Acceptance, number defective” column of table VI, the supplier shall replace the defective samples with samples that meet all the requirements specified herein, the entire lot shall be considered acceptable for shipment. If the number of defective samples is equal to or greater than the quantity specified in the “Rejection, number defective” column of table VI, the entire lot shall be considered defective and unsuitable for acceptance. A lot shall consist of all the blades of one style, width, thickness, pitch,-and toothset manufactured under essentially the same conditions and all units processed at the same time and presented for acceptance at one time.
Examination. Each blade submitted for sample inspection shall be visually examined to determine conformance with all requirements of this description.
Dimensional test. Each blade submitted for sample inspection shall be tested for conformance with the dimensional requirements of the salient characteristics.
Hardness test. A hardness test shall be performed in accordance with ASTM E-18 to determine conformance with the hardness requirements of the salient characteristic number 9.
