MIL-PRF-14107D
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature
which may be helpful, but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. The lubricating oil covered by this specification
is intended primarily for the lubrication of aircraft and ground
weapons to ensure efficient firing at low temperatures. The oil
covered by this specification is considered military unique because
it must perform at temperatures between 0oF to -70oF (-17.8o to
-56.6oC).
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents must specify the
following:
a. Title, number, and date of the specification.
b. Issue of DoDISS to be cited in the solicitation, and if
required, the specific issue of individual documents
referenced (see 2.2.1 and 2.3).
c. Qualification sample size (see 4.1.2.1).
6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification,
awards will be made only for products which are at the time of award
or contract, qualified for inclusion in the applicable QPL, whether
or not such products have actually been listed by that date. The
attention of the contractors is called to these requirements, and
manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the products that they
propose to offer to the Federal Government tested for qualification
in order that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or
purchase orders for the products covered by this specification.
Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained
from (U.S. Army TACOM-ARDEC, Attn: AMSTA-AR-QAW-E, Picatinny Arsenal,
NJ 07806-5000).
6.3.1 Re-qualification. Any changes in the formulation or processing
of a qualified product will necessitate its re-qualification. Oil
supplied under contract shall be identical, within manufacturing
tolerances, to the approved qualification sample. The qualifying
activity may, at its discretion, request complete re-qualification
testing or require only partial re-qualification in order to
determine the significance, impact and acceptability of any proposed
formulation change, manufacturing process or change in manufacturing
location.
6.3.2 Product formulation. At the time of "application for
qualification testing" but no later than the date of initiation of
such testing, the lubricant manufacturing or distributing source of
supply shall identify the product formulation, including constituent
material, percentage used in finished product and the manufacturing
source of supply of each component (solvent, base oil, additive
