What is the minimum order quantity?
For seamless pipe we normally work from one 20 ft container or 25 tonnes, whichever is greater. Line pipe, LSAW and coated pipe usually start around 100 tonnes. Different sizes and grades can be combined in one shipment, so a mixed order is rarely a problem.
Which standards and grades can you supply?
API 5L PSL1 and PSL2 / ISO 3183 (Gr.B up to X70 / L485), ASTM A106 Gr.A/B/C, ASTM A53 Gr.A/B, ASTM A333 Gr.1/6, ASTM A335 P1–P92, ASTM A179 / A192 / A210, DIN 17175 and DIN 1629, API 5CT J55 / K55 / N80 / L80 / P110, EN 10219 and EN 10255 / BS 1387 for galvanized material.
What documents come with the shipment?
EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate with chemistry and mechanical results by heat number, dimensional and hydrostatic test records, NDT reports where applicable, coating thickness and holiday test reports for coated pipe, packing list, commercial invoice, bill of lading and certificate of origin.
Can you supply coated or galvanized pipe?
Yes. External 3PE, 3LPE, 2LPP and FBE coating, internal epoxy or drag-reducing lining, and hot-dip galvanizing at 200–500 g/m². Coating is applied to the standard you name (for example ISO 21809, DIN 30670 or CSA Z245.21) and the coating report is issued with the pipe.
What is the lead time and the payment term?
Lead time is confirmed on the order confirmation — normally 20–40 days after the deposit, depending on size, grade, quantity and coating. Payment terms are agreed in writing for each order: a deposit with the balance against shipping documents, or an irrevocable L/C at sight.
I only have a tender document — can you help?
Yes. Send the tender document, the line list or the piping class as it is. We read it against the standard and come back with the pipe specification, the theoretical weight and the price — so you can complete your own offer.
Do you arrange third-party inspection?
Yes. SGS, BV, Intertek, TÜV or your own nominated inspector can attend the works and the coating plant. We arrange the visit, prepare the test pieces and hold the release until the inspection is signed off.
