7、the individualproduct specification shall prevail over those of this specifica-tion.1.3 By mutual agreement between the purchaser and thesupplier, additional requirements may be specified (See 4.1.8).The acceptance of any such additional requirements shall bedependent on negotiations with the suppli
8、er and must beincluded in the order as agreed upon by the purchaser andsupplier.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text andthe tables, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values statedin each system may not be exact e
9、quivalents; therefore eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unlessthe “M” designation SI of the product specification isspecified in the order.2. Referenced Docum
