Quality Control
All Taurus products are manufactured under strict process control and monitored throughout the production process. They are subjected to a number of checks to ensure total control conformity to specifications.
Chemical Analysis
Chemical Test as per required quality.
Corrosion Test
Corrosion test is conducted only when specially requested by the client.
Destructive/Mechanical Testing
Tensile, Hardness, Flattening, Flare, Flange and Reverse-bend tests are carried out in full compliance with relevant standards, i.e. ASTM A-1016 and A-999 norms. This ensures trouble-free expansion, welding and use at customers end.
Eddy Current Testing
To detect homogeneities in subsurface, eddy current testing is carried out using Flaw-mark Testing System.
Hydrostatic Testing
100% Hydrostatic Testing is carried out according to ASTM - A 1016 norms to check tubes for leakage.
Making
To ensure complete identification and traceability, all the information as required by the standards i.e. Brand Name, Size, Grade, Specifications, heat No., / Lot No. is marked on all the pipes and tubes by using the latest inkjet marking machine.
Visual Inspection
After passivation, every single length of tubes and pipes is subjected to a thorough visual inspection by trained staff to detect surface flaws and other imperfections.
Air under Press Test
Tubes are internally pressurized with clean and dry compressed air and being submerged in clear water to check any evidence of air leakage.
