Standard Item 009-32 Update and Status

• Completed SSRAC meeting in July 2015 to prepare FY-17 Standard Item 009-32.Concurrence 85% complete – leadership intends to limit use of haze gray silicone alkyd.

“Top Ten” Items:

1. RETAINED plan to update potable-water tank rinse requirement language to allow cleaning with white rags and potable water instead of two fill-&-rinse cycles.

2. PROHIBITED use of steel shot on LHA, LHD, LPD, and LSD (expanding on the current prohibition for nonskid work) to mitigate the risk of waterfront misinterpretation of requirements.

MORE TO FOLLOW

3. RETAINED approval of rapid-cure, single-coat, potable-water tanks (with qualified MIL-PRF-23236, Type VII, Class 9/18 in white or off-white), submarine sanitary tanks, carrier tanks, and surface ship tanks.

4. APPROVED the use of low-temperature primer under Peel & Stick nonskid (for primer only, not for application of the peel & stick nonskid).

5. RETAINED Appendix C to allow option for NSRP project, final product of “spot and sweep” surface preparation on the underwater hull and freeboard if approved by the SUPERVISOR.


Update Items:

6. DEFINED “DDG-51 Class top of stacks (i.e., 05 level weather decks and bulwarks)” and “Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) battery compartment at conversion” as critical coated areas.

Deck around BLISS Caps corroding withpremature coating failure.

Validated with TYCOMs that cost increase justified to reduce corrosion risks.

7. RETAINED requirement to delete stripe coat and use edge-thickness measurements (stripe coatingstill allowed, but checkpoint eliminated by additional edge thickness data) for MIL-PRF-23236, Type VII coatings.

8. APPROVED revision to Figure 2 requirement for 2-3/8-inch squaremasking around bolt hole during RAST track nonskid install, to allows either greater masking overlap or to allow circularmasking.

Standard Item 009-32Change to Allow Round Masking on RAST Track Nonskid

• FY-16, Change 1, Standard Item 009-32 published on 10 JUL 2015 cites Figure 2 that required square masking:

• Approved change allows a round mask as alreadyinstalled on some DDGs and approved by NAVAIR:

Update to Standard Item 009-32

Current square masking

Old Figure 2 from FY-16

New Figure 2 from FY-17

Round Mask on DDG 109


8

Updated Items:

9. RETAINED “or NAVSEA-approved equivalent” to allow use of other paperless QA programs.

10. RETAINED/UPDATED required coating thickness ranges so that only integers are used (no decimals).

11. RETAINED requirement that 50% relative humidity is applicable only until cure to recoat of finaltouchup. Full creditable cure time may be achieved at 85% relative humidity through cure to service.

12. In addition, have multiple EDITORIAL updates and clarifications to:- Definitions of terms.- Capastic Shields.- Arresting Gear Sheave Foundations.- Bilge coating requirements to allow SP-3 & SP-11.

SEA 05P2 Comments from all SEA 04 & SEA 05 activities completed and incorporated.

Apply TSN to areas that will be under V-22 engine nacelleimpingement zones at Landing Spots 2, 4, 5, & 6.

Status:Thermal spray application complete. Final color top and markings to be applied to the Spots 7 & 9 in March 2016

Risk assessment of baseline TSN material & processes signed out on 5 Jan 2015 with defined MEDIUM level of risk. Updated risk assessment signed on 22 June 2015 to use Arctec 28E TSN. Updated patch design signed on 19 Feb 2016.

Flight Deck Nonskid on USS AMERICA (LHA 6)NEW Thermal Spray Nonskid (TSN) To Improve Flight Deck Performance

Flight Deck Nonskid on USS AMERICA (LHA 6)Why Use TSN To Improve Flight Deck Performance?

10

TSN is only material that can withstand direct F-35 exhaust gas impingement.

TSN has low macro-profile and smaller “chips” that can break off lowering risk of aircraft engine FOD.

TSN is aluminum and small (e.g., 400 grit or smaller) Al2O3 aggregate as compared with 24-30 grit Al2O3 in conventional epoxy nonskid.

Conventional Nonskid Chips TSN, wear particles , 400 grit aggregate

TSN can resist V-22 exhaust gas heat.

NRL validating that V-22 exhaust gas impingement can crack conventional nonskid.
