The tube/pipe is through checked for proper O.D., wall and length measurements. This information is accurately entered onto the S.P.C. charts.
The tube/pipe is fully inspected for visual defects.
The welding parameters are checked on the mill to ensure that the proper amperage, volts, gases and mill speed are used as per welding parameter sheet.
All cleaning pads, rags, etc. are to be changed.
Oil for the hammer and O.D. condition is present and the oilers are working properly.
The annealing temperature is as stated on the work order and the tube is bright with no discoloration if being bright annealed.
The weld is properly hammered or bead rolled.
The tube is properly O.D. conditioned.
The tensile is handed into the lab with completed identification.
The printing on the tube/pipe is legible and accurate per the work order.
Destructive testing i.e. bend test is done per the work order.
Tube is checked for the proper beading and passes the required plug gauge and/or ring gauge.
Verify the tube, in coiled form, is of the proper diameter and hydrostatic tested for leakage.
The spare coils on the uncoiler are of the correct gauge, type, heat, etc. and it is correctly installed (sharp edge up/down).
