Inspection and documentsPMI, UT, MT, PT, tensile, impact, hardness and dimensional reports. CNAS accreditation covers tensile, impact and bend testing. Before shipment, every forged flange in alloy steel, low-temperature steel or stainless steel is checked by quantitative spectrometer analysis to catch mixed material. Every steel mill certificate is checked before the material is used: we scan the mill's own QR code or look up the heat number and certificate number in the mill's online system.EPC, distributor and end-user release packages requiring MTC 3.1 supportITP, NDT level, witness point, certificate language and destination rules
Export preparationAnti-rust oil, fumigated wooden cases, steel-strapped pallets with tarpaulin for large parts, line-item marking and English / Russian document support; correspondence in English, Russian or ArabicMixed flange and forging RFQs from buyers in Russia and the CIS, Central Asia, India and South Asia, the Middle East and Gulf, Europe, Japan and Korea, Canada and Australia. Countries we have shipped to include India, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and other Middle East countries, Canada, Australia, South Korea, Japan and countries across Europe. For buyers in Russia and Central Asia, we deliver to Khorgos on the China–Kazakhstan border, and the buyer arranges the freight across the border.PO line list, shipping mark, port, country and packing specification
