Steel pipes are used in a wide range of applications. To order the right one, contractors must consider more than only the brand. It is advised to choose steel pipes that match well with the project’s application, pressure requirements, dimensions, applicable standard, and installation conditions. Being in this industry since 1991, we offer high-quality Jindal Hissar steel pipes for applications involving water, gas, air, structural work, mechanical engineering and other industrial requirements. However, at the same time, it is also advised to check all the specifications that are necessary to consider before buying them.
In this blog, we are sharing all the factors that contractors must consider before placing an order. They involve the specific application, quality standards, types of pipes, quantity, length, and a few other factors.
Always consider the applications before selecting size
Before you ask for the size or length of the pipe, share the intended application. Contractors must understand that a pipe suitable for a water line may not be the right choice for structural fabrication or a mechanical engineering application. So, share its proper use and the material it will carry so that you can get a compatible pipe that suits the requirement well.
Check class, wall thickness and diameter
Before placing an order, make sure the pipe specifications match what your project actually requires. One must understand that light, medium and heavy classes have different wall thicknesses and are meant for different working conditions. The diameter and wall thickness also affect the pipe’s weight and performance. That is why, it is advised to check the nominal bore, outside diameter, wall thickness and class against your project drawings or material requirements. Getting these details right at the ordering stage can save you from unnecessary cutting, replacement or installation issues later.
Verify the quality and manufacturing standards
It is not the brand or the size of the Jindal Hissar steel pipes that define its working. But it is also the standards that the brand follows when manufacturing it. Ensure that they are manufactured by adhering to all these BIS standards including IS 1239, IS 3589, IS 4270, IS 1161, IS 3601 and IS 9295, depending on the product and application. Do not forget to ask about the quality or test documents as they help one stay assured about their investment.
Decide between black and GI pipes
Contractors often get confused when making a selection between black and GI pipes. Their use should depend on the environment where they will be used. Like black steel pipes are suitable for applications that do not require galvanization. On the other hand, GI pipes are suitable for applications where zinc coating is a must to keep pipes protected from corrosion. If the pipes will be installed outdoors or in an area exposed to moisture, this difference becomes particularly important. Consider the site conditions and expected service life before making the decision rather than choosing solely on the initial price.
Always confirm quantity, length and delivery
When placing orders, do not consider technical specifications. Instead, also confirm the required number of pipes, standard length, permissible cutting, end finish and delivery schedule before finalizing the purchase. Share your requirements clearly to ensure that the manufacturers understand the exact product specification and supply requirement.
Conclusion
With all the factors stated above, contractors can easily invest in reliable quality Jindal Hissar steel pipes, according to your project requirements. Consider the application needs, pipe classes, quality standards, length, and number of pipes. Checking these requirements beforehand helps avoid mismatched material, unnecessary replacements and delays at the site.
