GH4169 seamless pipe quality inspection specifications
As a trusted supplier, Gnee Steel adheres to a "zero-defect" principle. Every GH4169 seamless pipe undergoes a rigorous inspection process before shipment.
Eddy Current Testing (ET): Used to detect minute cracks and defects on and near the surface of pipes.
Ultrasonic Testing (UT): For thick-walled or pressure-critical pipes, it detects deep defects such as internal inclusions and porosity, conforming to AMS 2630 requirements.
Hydrostatic Testing: Each pipe must undergo high-pressure hydrostatic testing to ensure no leakage or deformation under rated operating pressure.
