3、ans with corner radii over 1 inches, and round cans, (ranging from approximately 4 1/16 inches to 6 3/16 inches in diameter by 4 11/16 inches to 7 inches high), for feeding small combat groups in the field. 2. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS. 2.1 Materials and components. Materials and components shall be o
4、f the quality normally used for this purpose in commercial practice provided the completed can opener complies with all provisions of this CID. 2.2 Design and construction. The can opener shall be the manufacturers standard commercial product similar to the design in figure 1 as specified in 2.2.1,
5、2.2.2, and 2.2.3. All parts that come in contact with, or may be contaminated by food, shall be easily cleaned and capable of being sanitized. 2.2.1 Can opener. The overall length of the can opener shall be 6.875 inches. The can opener shall have a wing operated feed wheel and a gear driven cutting
6、wheel. The body of the opener shall be made from a material that will weld to 300 series stainless steel, and shall have an integral can guide with a minimum projection of 0.438 inches. The handle shall be padded with no gap between the padded and the metal portions of the handle. Beneficial comment
7、s, recommendations, additions, deletions, clarifications, etc. and any other data which may improve this document should be sent to: Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, ATTN: DLA-FTSA, 700 Robbins Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19111-5092.

The feed wheel shall be fabricated of free machining steel and shall be case hardened to a depth of 0.008 inches with a Rockwell 15-N hardness of 89.2 to 90.2. The feed wheel shall have sharp teeth equally spa
9、ced around the wheel circumference and shall be permanently attached to the wing type handle by a metal shaft passing through the opener body. Testing shall be as specified in 4.3 and 4.4. 2.2.3 Cutting wheel. The cutting wheel shall be fabricated of free machining steel. The cutting wheel shall be
10、chamfered to a sharp cutting edge and mounted on a plier or cam type pressure device which is engaged when pressure is applied by squeezing the handles. The cutting wheel shall be at an angle of 20 to 30 degrees with the surface of the feed wheel. The edge of the cutting wheel shall not come in cont
11、act with the feed wheel edge. The cutting wheel shall be case hardened to a depth of 0.006 inches. Using the Knoop microhardness test at a 400 gram load, the following hardness ranges shall be required: 0.002 inches = 600 - 700; 0.004 inches = 550 - 700; 0.006 inches = 500 - 700. Testing shall be as
12、 specified in 4.3 and 4.4. 2.3 Lubrication. All points of the can opener requiring lubrication shall be lubricated with the manufacturers recommended food service equipment grade lubricant. 2.4 Standard compliance. Fabrication of the hand held can opener shall comply with the requirements of NSF Int
13、ernational Standard No. 2 as specified in 4.2. 2.5 Metric products. Products manufactured to metric dimensions will be considered on an equal basis with those manufactured using inch-pound units, provided they fall within the tolerances specified using conversion tables contained in the latest revis
14、ion of IEEE/ASTM SI 10, and all other requirements of this CID are met. If a product is manufactured to metric dimensions and those dimensions exceed the tolerances specified in the inch-pound units, a request should be made to the contracting officer to determine if the product is acceptable. The c
15、ontracting officer has the option of accepting or rejecting the product. 2.6 Workmanship. The finished hand held can opener shall be clean and free of rust, slivers, burrs, deep scratches, pits, and tool marks. Surfaces shall be free of loose or flaked plating. All sharp edges and corners shall be r
16、emoved. The can opener shall not be bent, damaged, or distorted. There shall be no defects which impair the durability, appearance, or serviceability of the item. 3. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS. 3.1 Contractor recovered materials. The offeror/contractor is encouraged to use recovered materials to the ma
17、ximum extent practicable, in accordance with paragraph 23.403 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-3 A-A-52202C 4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS. 4.1 Product conformance. The products provided sh
18、all meet the salient characteristics of this CID, conform to the producers own drawings, specifications, standards and quality assurance practices, and be the same product that has been sold in the commercial marketplace, or is the same product that has successfully been delivered to the Government
19、on a previous contract or purchase order. The government reserves the right to require proof of such conformance prior to first delivery and thereafter as may be otherwise provided for under the provisions of the contract. 4.1.1 Market acceptability (criteria).
