DRAPE, SURGICAL

The surgical drape is a disposable, nonwoven fabric product measuring 44 by 72 inches nominally, packaged in units of 20 per package, identified by NSN 6530-01-032-4089. It must conform to revised specifications of MIL-D-36917, including dimensional changes to 70 by 100 inches for large sheets and updated folding requirements that specify a standard fan fold with precise corner tuck and tab formation. The drape must be sterile, with radiation sterilization permissible if approved by the FDA and verified through dosimetry release per AAMI guidelines. Cut edges must be smooth and straight, with no roughness or raggedness permitted, and each drape must be clearly marked with its class and size, including the word “SPLIT” and an arrow for split sheet variants. Packaging requires individually sealed, peel-open or tear-open anti-static bags to maintain sterility, with each unit of 20 drapes contained in a single commercial shipping container. Marking must follow Medical Marking Standard No. 1, superseding MIL-STD-129, and include lot numbers and sterility legends such as “Sterile” and “Sterility Guaranteed Unless Package Is Damaged or Opened.” The product is subject to FDA regulation and must not contain intentional mercury or mercury compounds, with exceptions for specific functional components. Shelf life is 36 months extendable under Type 2 (Code 7) requirements. All packaging and marking must comply with commercial standards and ASTM D3951, with sampling following ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 instead of MIL-STD-105. The item is procured under solicitation SPE2DH-26-T-5199 with a delivery requirement of 20 days FOB destination, no quantity variance allowed, and inspection and acceptance occurring at the point of delivery.
