All other requirements apply to cord purchased by a supplier as a component for an end item and to cord pu
4、rchased directly by the Government. 3.2 Standard sample. The cord shall match the standard sample for shade and shall be equal to or better than the standard sample with respect to all characteristics for which t1.e standard sample is referenced (see 6.3). 3.3 Materials. The yarn used in the manufac
5、ture of the cord shall be a nomelting, aromatic polyamide, The yarn shall not carbonize at a temperature below 800F. The plied yarns shall be twisted only from the deniers specified in table I. 3 .LC Processing of yarns 3.4.1 Stretching. The yarns used to manufacture the cord shall not be subjected
6、to a stretching operation (see 4.2.2). 3.5 Bleaching. The yarn or the fabricated cord shall not be subjected to any type of bleaching process 3.6 Construction and physical requirements. The fabricated cord shall conform to the applicable requirements specified in tables I and II and following paragr
7、aphs for the respective types when tested as specified in 4.2.1 and 4.2.6. 3.6.1 Lapping o F core ends. Lapping of core ends is permissible providing the overlapsarenore than five inches but do not exceed ten inches in length (see 4.2.2). Splicing or knotting of core lines is not permissible (see 6.
8、4). The mnimum distance between a core end overlap or any adjacent core end shall be 500 feet. The approximate center of each overlap shall be marked by iqserting a bright red thread through the sleeve. The free ends of the mafker shall extend approximately three inches on either side of the sleeve,
9、 The removal of the marker shall be accomplished by a light pull on either end. When colored cord is specified, (see 3.8), the color of the marker shall be white.

The Government reserves the right to exclude from consideration for acceptance any material or service for which in-process inspection has indicated non-conformance. 4.2.3 Examination of the
36、 end- item for visual defects. The defects specified in table V shall be countd, regardless of their proximity to each other, except where two or more defects represent a single local condition, in which case only the more serious defect shall be counted. The sample unit for the examination shall be
37、 one spool (reel). Ten percent of the length contained on each sample unLt, but not less than 100 feet, shall be subjected to the visual examina- tion. The lot size for this examination shall be expressed in units of spools (reels) each. The- acceptable quality level shall be 1.5 major defects and 6
38、.5 total defects (major and minor combined) per 100 units. Any critical defect found during sampling inspection shall be cause for rejection of the lot represented by the sample. The inspection level shall be level III. In regard to the critical defect class, inspection lot sizes of 150 or less shal
39、l be inspected IC0 percent. For inspection lot sizes of 151 to 3,200, use a sample of 150 units. For inspection lot sizes greater than 3,200 use the sample size for level III, as indicated in MIL-STD-105. At its discretion, the Government may verify the result of the suppliers examination by 100 per
40、cent examination or by sampling inspection. Any critical defect found during sampling inspection shall be cause for rejection of the lot represented by the sample.
