MIL-O-52374D
6.4 First article inspection. Invitations for bids should provide that the Government reserves the right to
waive the requirement for samples for first article inspections as to those bidders offering a product which
has been previously acquired or tested by the Government, and that bidders offering such products, who
wish to rely on such production or test, must furnish evidence with the bid that prior Government approval
is presently appropriate for the pending contract.
6.5 Tin whisker growth. The use of alloys with tin content greater than 97 percent, by mass, may
exhibit tin whisker growth problems after manufacture. Tin whiskers may occur anytime from a day to
years after manufacture and can develop under typical operating conditions, on products that use such
materials. Conformal coatings applied over top of a whisker-prone surface will not prevent the formation
of tin whiskers. Alloys of 3 percent lead, by mass, have shown to inhibit the growth of tin whiskers. For
additional information on this matter, refer to ASTM-B545 (Standard Specification for Electrodeposited
Coatings of Tin).
