2.4 Order of precedence. Unless otherwise noted herein or in the contract, in the event of a conflict between
the text of this document and the references cited herein (except for related specification sheets), the text of this
document takes precedence. Nothing in this document, however, supersedes applicable laws and regulations unless
a specific exemption has been obtained.
3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1 Qualification. The lubricating oil furnished under this specification shall be products that are authorized by
the qualifying activity for listing on the applicable qualified products list before contract award (see 4.2 and 6.3).
3.1.1 Requalification. The continued qualification of products shall be verified every 5 years by submission of a
signed statement by the oil supplier attesting that no formulation changes have been made in the qualified product.
Any changes in the formulation of the product submitted for qualification testing shall be approved by NAVSEA.
Minor changes, such as an increase in pour point additive, may require only notification; however, the extent of
supporting test data required is at the discretion of NAVSEA.
3.2 Material. The oil shall consist of refined mineral oil blended with additives as necessary to conform to this
specification.
3.3 Lubrication. The oil shall lubricate oil-lubricated high-output marine diesel engine parts, engine-driven
generator bearings, and associated equipment.
3.4 Performance. The oil shall perform when used with all types of diesel engine bearing materials, shall cause
neither excessive ring sticking nor clogging of oil channels, shall keep cylinder and ring wear down to a minimum,
and shall not cause excessive lacquer, carbon, or sludge deposits on any part of the engines in which it is intended
for use. SAE 40 Grade oils qualified under this specification shall comply with the acceptance criteria in ASTM
D4485 for CF and CF2 oils (see 4.6.2). SAE 15W40 Grade oils qualified under this specification shall comply with
the acceptance criteria in ASTM D4485 for CH-4 oils (see 4.6.2).
3.5 Compatibility. The addition of a new diesel engine lubricating oil to any other new lubricating oil
conforming to this specification shall not cause separation of components (see 4.6.3).
3.6 Homogeneity. Additive agents, when used, shall remain uniformly distributed throughout the oil at all
temperatures above the pour point up to 180 °C. If the oil is cooled below its pour point, it shall regain its
homogeneity at a temperature of 6 °C above its pour point within 24 hours (see 4.6.4).
3.7 Chemical and physical requirements. The oils shall conform to the chemical and physical requirements
