WASHER, LOCK

The contract specifies the procurement of 186 units of a WASHER, LOCK with NSN 5310-01-477-3240 under solicitation SPE7M2-26-T-5823, requiring delivery within 168 days FOB origin with no tolerance for quantity variance. All items must comply with DLA packaging standards, including MIL-STD-2073-1E for preservation and MIL-STD-129 for marking, with no special marking required and palletization governed by DLA packaging requirements. Inspection and acceptance occur at the manufacturer’s origin, where sampling must follow MIL-STD-1916, ASQ H1331 Table 1, or an equivalent zero-based plan; critical, major, and minor attributes are to be verified at levels VII, IV, and II respectively, or with AQLs of 0.1, 1.0, and 4.0, with unspecified attributes treated as major. Zero non-conformances are required unless otherwise stated, and MIL-STD-105/ASQ Z1.4 may only be used to determine sample size, not acceptance criteria. Strict prohibitions ban mercury or mercury-containing compounds from direct contact with hardware, except for specific exempted applications like batteries, sensors, or weapons as defined by NAVSEA, with portable devices containing mercury requiring shockproof construction and a secondary containment. Preservation, packaging, and marking must exclude mercury entirely. The item is supplied by Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical under part numbers 14A5X96 and PL14006N18ITEM241A, and delivery must be made by January 26, 2027, to the DLA Distribution facility in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania.
