As prescribed in 11.304-90(g), insert the following clause in full text:

LEVEL I FASTENER IDENTIFICATION (DLA MARITIME-NORFOLK) (JUN 2011) - DLAD

(a) Identification shall be maintained for Level I fasteners by unique lot number. All Level I fasteners, 1/2 inch nominal diameter and larger and all hull integrity fasteners, regardless of size, shall be marked with the kind of material, manufacturer's trademark or symbol, and traceability code (i.e., heat number, lot number). Level I fasteners less than 1/2 inch nominal diameter shall be marked as space permits using the following order of precedence:

(1) The kind of material

(2) The manufacturer's trademark or symbol

(3) The traceability code

(b) The material control process shall include requirements for the maintenance of traceability for items sent out for subcontracted operations.

If such operations would remove traceability marking, purchase or work orders shall specify method and marking location for remarking. The Contractor shall also ensure that subcontractor production controls are adequate to preclude commingling of materials during processing. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph, in all subcontracts.

(c) For material produced by batch, continuous cast, or continuous pour process, samples shall be taken no less than once every eight hours of operation for the purpose of validating proper chemical composition and mechanical properties.
