Additional Notes
An amendment extended the response due date from January 23, 2026, to January 27, 2026. Clarifications from the Q&A document indicate that the tread surface should be complete to prevent dirt collection, required lips/nosings should be 1-1/8" and run the entirety of the tread, and an aluminum finish is acceptable. An attachment provides a preferred bolt pattern example, noting that bolts in the centerline of the tread are not preferred. FAR clauses 52.212-1, 52.212-4, and 52.212-5, along with DFARS clauses, are incorporated by reference.
