4.6.1 Failure. Failure of an article sample to pass any of the inspections specified herein shall be
cause for the Government to refuse to accept further products until corrective action has been made and
successful completion of first article testing.
4.7 Performance inspections.
4.7.1 Visual examination (see 3.6.1). Each hose assembly and its related manufacturing records
shall be examined for compliance with the requirements specified herein with respect to dimensions,
identification of product, workmanship, cleanliness, interchangeability, and age limitations, see 3.4.3,
3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11. The classification of defects as specified in FED-STD-162 shall be used to
determine and evaluate defects through visual inspection.
4.7.1.1 Length (3.4.3.3). Hose selected shall be measured for length as specified in ASTM D380 to
determine conformance to 3.4.3.3.
4.7.1.2 Inside diameter (see 3.4.3.4). Hose selected shall have the ID measured as specified in
ASTM D380 to determine conformance to 3.4.3.4.
shall be measured on specimens removed from each end of the hose section obtained in accordance
with 4.5.3.2 to determine conformance to 3.4.3.1 and 3.4.3.2. The thickness shall be determined by the
procedure given in ASTM D380, except that only buffed specimens shall be measured. The respective
values found for the tube thickness shall not be averaged, but shall be regarded as independent
measurements, each of which shall meet the requirement. The respective values for the cover thickness
shall be treated in the same manner.
