4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
4.1 Responsibility for Inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or pur-
chase order, the contractor is responsible for the performance of all inspection require-
ments (examinations and tests) as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in the
contract or purchase order, the contractor may use his own or any other facilities suitable
for the performance of the inspection requirements specified herein, unless disapproved
by the Government. The Government reserves the right to perform any of the inspections
set forth in this specification where such inspections are deemed necessary to ensure
supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.
4.1.1 Responsibility for compliance. All items shall meet all requirements of sections
3 and 5. The inspection set forth in this specification shall become a part of the contrac-
tor's overall inspection system or quality program. The absence of any inspection require-
ments in the specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of ensuring
that all products or supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all
requirements of the contract. Sampling inspection, as part of manufacturing operations, is
an acceptable practice to ascertain conformance to requirements, however, this does not
authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it
commit the Government to accept defective material.
4.2 Quality conformance inspection.
4.2.1 Lotting. A lot shall consist of the WP offered for acceptance at one time which
has been produced by one manufacturer, at one plant, from the same materials, and
under essentially the same manufacturing conditions provided the operation is continuous.
In the event the process is a batch operation, each batch shall constitute a lot (see 6.3).
When shipments are made by tank cars or tank trucks, the contents of each tank car or
tank truck shall constitute a lot.
4.2.2 Sampling.
4.2.2.1 For examination of packaging. Sampling for examination of packaging shall
be conducted in accordance with MIL-STD-105.
4.2.2.2 For test. CAUTION. WP is flammable and must be kept under water or an
atmosphere of carbon dioxide at all times. During sampling, the WP shall be handled
under water and transferred while still wet to a container filled with water.
(a) Drums. Sampling for test shall be conducted in accordance with table I. A
l-quart specimen shall be removed from each sample drum in such a manner that the
top, middle, and bottom portions of the WP are approximately equally represented in the
specimen. For drums containing WP in block form, one block shall be removed from each
sample drum. The specimen shall be placed in a bottle or other suitable container filled
