Typical applications
- Small-bore process, steam and hydraulic lines
- Instrument, drain and vent connections
- Branch connections on larger lines
Manufacturing
- Raw material: forging-quality bar from approved mills, verified by chemical analysis and PMI.
- Forming: closed-die forging, trimming and heat treatment as required by the material specification.
- Machining: CNC machining of sockets, bores and threads; threads gauged with calibrated plug gauges.
Inspection and testing
- Chemical analysis and mechanical tests per heat.
- 100% visual and dimensional inspection against ASME B16.11; thread or socket gauging on every lot.
- Hardness test; PMI on stainless and alloy steel.
- Dye-penetrant or magnetic-particle examination and hydrostatic proof test when specified.
Marking
Stamped to ASME B16.11 / MSS SP-25: manufacturer's mark, material grade, class, size and heat number.
Documentation
Mill test certificate to EN 10204 3.1 (3.2 with third-party inspection on request), dimensional inspection report, heat-treatment record where applicable, and NDT reports as specified. IBR certification on request.
Packing
Rust-preventive coating on machined surfaces, plastic end / face protectors, and seaworthy wooden cases or pallets marked with PO line, size, heat number and quantity.
