NUT, SELF-LOCKING, PL

The contract pertains to the procurement of self-locking plate nuts designated as MS21071L3 under NSN 5310-00-734-1850, manufactured in accordance with the current revision of the non-government consensus standard NASM21071 Revision 1 dated September 28, 2012. All hardware must meet the technical and quality specifications outlined in the DLA Master List of Technical and Quality Requirements, which supersede all other referenced standards including ASTM D3951. The items are subject to stringent physical identification requirements per MIL-STD-130N, mandating unique item identification through Machine Readable Information in Data Matrix barcode format, along with additional manufacturer and lot markings. Inspection and acceptance occur at origin, with sampling protocols following MIL-STD-1916 or ASQ H1331 Table 1 using zero-based acceptance criteria; any unspecified attributes are treated as major with an AQL of 1.0, and MIL-STD-105/ASQ Z1.4 may only be used to determine sample size, not acceptance thresholds. Packaging must comply with ASTM D3951 and MIL-STD-129 for labeling and marking, with palletization conforming to DLA Packaging Requirements for Procurement (RP001), and DLA Master List requirements take precedence over packaging standards. Two line items are specified: 532 units under CLIN 0001 and 4,310 units under CLIN 0002, both with a 173-day delivery window after receipt of order, FOB origin, zero quantity variance, and a required delivery date of July 14, 2027, with a need ship date of July 20, 2027 for the primary delivery point at Hill AFB, Utah, and an alternate shipping destination at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma.
