deviations of couplings halves from the approved first article during production
will be subject to the approval of the contracting officer. Approval of the
first article will not relieve the contractor of his obligation to furnish
coupling halves conforming to this specification.
3.4 Construction.
3.4.2 Female couplings. Female couplings shall mate with the male coupling
gage specified herein. t?hen tested as specified herein, the torque required to
completely close each cam arm and amount of gasket compression shall be in
accordance with the values specified in table I. Female couplings, complete
with gaskets, shall not leak or distort and the cam arms shall not visually show
movement toward the unlocking direction when hydrostatically tested as specified
herein and on applicable standards (see 1.2).

3.4.3 Male gage for gasket compression. A gage for each size female coupling
shall be fabricated of steel, and shall have a hardness from 60 to 65 Rockwell C
when tested as specified herein, and shall conform to the dimensions and
tolerances specified in figure 1.
3.7 Interchangeability. All parts having the same part number of any single
type, size, and class coupling shall be functionally and dimensionally interchange-
able. Interchangeable parts are defined as two or more like parts possessing such
functional and physical characteristics as to be equivalent in performance and
durability, and capable of being exchanged one for the other without alteration
of the parts themselves or of adjoining parts, except for adjustment, and without
selection for fit or performance.
3.9.1 Castings. Castings shall be sound and free from blowholes, patching,
misplaced coring, warping, and any other defects which might render the castings
unsound or unsuitable for their intended use.
3.9.2 Machining. Tolerances and gages for interface fits shall conform to
the limitations specified herein and on applicable standards (see 1.2).

4.1.1 Responsibility for compliance. All items must meet all requirements of
sections 3 and 5. The inspection set forth in this specification shall become a
part of the contractor’s overall inspection system or quality program. The
absence of any inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the
contractor of the responsibility of assuring that all products or supplies
submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the
contract. Sampling in quality conformance does not authorize submission of known
defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government
to acceptance of defective material.

4.3.2 Tests.
4.3.2.1 Gages.
4.3.2.2 Couplings. The first article female and male couplings shall be
tested as specified in 4.5.2.2 and 4.5.2.3 using the gage(s) that have
successfully completed the tests specified in 4.3.2.1. Failure of either test
shall be cause for rejection.
4.4.2 Examination.
4.4.2.1 Individual. Each coupling shall be examined for the critical defects
specified in 4.5.1. presence of a critical defect shall be cause for rejection.

4.5.2.1 Gages.
a. After insertion of the male gage into the female coupling to the maximum
penetration without using the cam arms or any other gasket compression
force, measurement shall be made of the distance from the outside end of
the male gage shown in figure 1, to the insertion end of the female
coupling at three points spaced equidistant around the face circumference.
The average distance shall be computed to the nearest thousandth of an
inch.
