3.6 Mating thread surfaces. The mating surfaces of
threads shall be free of caked explosive and free of foreign
material. If a chemical cleaner is required, acetone or
methylene chloride shall be used. Care should be taken to
prevent the chemical cleaner from coming into contact with the
charge and becoming entrapped in the projectile.
3.7 Fuze well surface cavitation. Cavities formed due to
chipped or broken explosive from the sidewalls of the fuze
well shall not extend in aggregate around more than 1/4 of the
circumference. The maximum dimension of any visible cavity in
the faced surface of the charge shall not exceed 1/4 inch in
any direction and the total area of all cavities shall not
exceed 80 percent of the surface area. (Cavities having a
maximum dimension of 1/32 inch or less shall be disregarded in
this computation as shall voids within the applicable region
of the fuze well prescribed by 9211610.)
3.8 Base separation saw samples. The maximum allowable
base separation shall be .015 inch when inspected after
sectioning.
3.9 Fuze well (before assembly of the liner). The fuze
well shall be free from any loose explosive or any foreign
matter prior to assembly of the liner. Chemical cleaner shall
not contact the charge or become entrapped in the projectile.
3.10 Fuze well (after assembly of the liner). The fuze
well shall be free from any loose explosive or any foreign
matter after assembly of the liner.
3.11 Exterior surfaces explosive contamination. There
shall be no stain, TNT bloom or caked explosive (see 6.6) on
the exterior of the projectile prior to shipping from the load
plant.
3.12 Ballistic test.
3.12.1 Metal parts breakup. There shall be no premature
burst or indication of metal parts separation in the gun or in
flight.
3.12.2 Shearing of rotating band. There shall be no
shearing of the rotating band as evidenced by complete lack of
engraving.
3.12.3 Rotating band failure. There shall be no loss or
fanning (any lifting of rotating band edge) of the rotating
band.
3.12.4 Muzzle Velocity. The muzzle velocity for the
cartridge, fired at 70 +/-2.5 degrees Fahrenheit, shall not be
