Chinese Ductile Iron Pipe
(OP)
Has anyone quality control problems with this supplier
Xinxing Ductile Iron Pipes Co., Ltd of Beijing.
They advertise minimum orders of 500tons so would be a major player.
Is this manufacturer acceptable to your local authority?

The 10" dia pipes failed at 10% or their rated capacity... and we had mill test reports that they were A53 grade B... THis was posted in an earlier thread (about a year ago), and the problems have yet to be resolved.
Just a caution.

This generated a lot of fear and discussion at the time, including on thread330-172967: P91 failure in China - 3 fatalities
Our company took this seriously and took a close look at our suppliers list at the time. But what we found was that some key grades of steel just aren't manufactured anywhere outside of China anymore, so banning Chinese steel just isn't realistic. I can say that we have built nuclear plants with Chinese-manufactured pipe, and they run just fine. Vigilant QA surveillance of suppliers is always important, but it doesn't make any sense to single out China.

We've had Xinxing as the supplier in a project.
- Quality control docs were fine (3rd party control, Chinese though)
- Some quality issues with the cement lining
- failure in proper packing
- disastrous ship transport
Put all your concern for proper packing and shipping. Please let me know if you would like to know some aspects specifically so perhaps I could tell more about them.
