The lot shall be unacceptable if the points per 100 square yards (84 m2) of two or more in

26、dividual rolls exceeds 60 points. If no individual roll exceeds the point level, the lot shall be acceptable with respect to this characteristic. If one roll exceeds the point level, a second sample equal in size to the first, shall be examined only for individual roll quality examination. The lot s

27、hall be unacceptable if one or more rolls in the second sample exceeds the point level.
