Common Standards

Standards are checked against the drawing, project specification and requested inspection route.

  • Project drawing or heat exchanger drawing
  • ASTM / EN material standards
  • Drilling and machining specification
  • UT, dimensional and document requirements by project

Material Grades

Material review confirms grade, service condition, heat treatment and certificate expectations before quotation.

Carbon steel pipe plates

Low-temperature steel pipe plates

Stainless steel tube sheets

Duplex and alloy tube sheets

Project-specified pressure vessel grades

Manufacturing Route

The practical route is reviewed before price and lead time are confirmed.

  • Material review
  • Forging route confirmation
  • Heat treatment
  • Rough machining
  • Final machining
  • Inspection and document review
  • Marking, packing and export document preparation

Inspection and Documents

Inspection requirements should be included with the RFQ so document cost and timing are clear early.

MTC EN 10204 3.1

Heat treatment record

Dimensional report

PMI when alloy verification is required

UT, MT or PT when specified

Tensile, impact or hardness test records when required

Third-party inspection support by project request

Common Buyer Mistakes

These points often cause repeated clarification or delayed quotation.

  • Sending a product name without standard, drawing or pressure rating
  • Leaving bore, facing or bolt pattern unclear
  • Mixing DN, NPS, PN and class references without a drawing
  • Omitting inspection documents until after price discussion
  • Forgetting destination country, packing or third-party inspection requirements

FAQ

Short answers for common RFQ questions.

Can you review Pipe Plate Forgings by drawing?

Yes. Send the latest drawing revision with material, quantity, tolerance, inspection and destination requirements so the RFQ can be checked before quotation.

What information is needed before quotation?

A practical RFQ should include standard or drawing, size, pressure rating, material grade, quantity, inspection requirements and destination country.

Which materials are common for Pipe Plate Forgings?

Common requests include ASTM A105, A350 LF2, stainless steel, duplex steel and project-specified alloy grades, subject to drawing and service requirements.

Can inspection documents be arranged?

MTC 3.1, dimensional reports, heat treatment records, PMI, UT, MT, PT and third-party inspection can be reviewed according to the project requirement.
