Production and Quality Control
As the manufacturer, JS FITTINGS managed the complete production cycle, from raw material forging to final machining. ASTM A105 is a primary material for high-temperature and high-pressure service, and our forging process ensures the structural integrity required for these environments.
During the final inspection, each piece underwent dimensional verification. Special attention was paid to the 1mm thickness tolerance and the uniformity of the black painting surface treatment, ensuring the flanges are protected against corrosion during the long sea voyage and subsequent site storage.
Packaging and Logistics
Shipping 23 tons of forged components to Brazil requires robust logistics management. To ensure the safety of the cargo during sea transit:
Packaging: All 3,080 flanges were organized by size and type, then packed into reinforced plywood cases and pallets. This fumigation-free packaging complies with international shipping regulations and protects the flange faces and bevels from mechanical damage.
Transportation: The cargo was loaded at our facility and transported by sea. By optimizing the loading density, we ensured the most economical shipping cost for our client while maintaining the stability of the 23-ton load.
Global Supply Capability
This successful delivery to Brazil demonstrates JS FITTINGS’ capability to handle mid-to-large scale international orders. Our factory is equipped to produce high-volume ASME standard components with precise tolerances, ensuring timely supply to major industrial hubs worldwide.
