Assist On-Line is a free on-line service that will help you find procedures and forms for failure mode analysis, sampling plans and qualified suppliers (look inside the QPL). You can use the service to find and determine the current status of a variety of government specs such as MIL, AN, MS and FED - you'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to download their docs.
Popular specs include:
ANSI/ASQ Z 1.4 Sampling Plan - this is a link to the ANSI Webstore - type-in the phrase ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2003 into their search engine to retrieve a link to purchase the sampling plan
MIL-STD-105 - Sampling Plan / Acceptance Quality Level (AQL) [2.9MB] replaced by
MIL-STD-1916 - Statistical Process Control [169KB]
MIL-HDBK-1916 [1.5MB] - this is a companion handbook
MIL-STD-45662A [418KB]
MS51835 [180KB]
Here's a helpful hint: Keep in mind that Societies are adopting many Government specifications, which means you will have to pay for their document. To find the free Government version of many society specifications, type-in a spec number in the <Document Number> field on the ASSIST search page. If you don't know the spec number then use the <Title> field on the search page and type-in a couple of keywords. For instance, SAE AMS STD 2219 used to be MIL-STD-2219 - type-in 2219 in the <Document Number> field or type-in fusion welding in the <Title> field. The free version of the Government's canceled specification may not be the latest release, but...
