- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce, NOAA, intends to purchase 300 5-gallon containers and 125 one-quart containers, Synthetic Lubricating Gear Box Oil, American Lubricants P/N SCH 75W and Mobil P/N 624, NSN: 9150-01-418-8738. These items are being purchased for the National Weather Service (NWS), to be delivered to the National Logistics Support Center, Kansas City, MO. The oil is used to lubricate the gear train assemblies which turn the radar antennas. Although, the Mobil part number is considered compatible, the NWS has determined and agreed upon by the NWS/Radar Operations Center, the NWS/National Reconditioning Center (NRC), and the gear train assemblies manufacturer that the use of another manufacturer?s product will not only cause damage to the gear train assemblies, but it is against good engineering practices to switch back and forth between two different lubricating oils. The oil shall be packaged in 5-gallon containers manufactured by Lab Safety Supply, P/N TL8218 (N) and in one-quart containers with absolutely no exceptions. As these items are in support of the current NEXRAD program, alternative or like items would not be acceptable. The government knows of only one source (A.J.
