Sourcing notes
Steel is quoted against a mill price basis, so the quotation should state the grade, standard, dimensions, tolerance, coating and price-validity period. Confirm whether the tonnage is from a mill with the certification required by the destination market and whether mill test certificates will be supplied with the shipment.
Quality, compliance and documentation
Request the mill test certificate, dimensional inspection and surface-quality report. For structural use, confirm the applicable design standard and the impact-testing requirement. Packaging for sea freight should be agreed in advance to avoid rust and handling damage.
How to inquire
Send the grade, standard, size range, tonnage and destination port. For fabricated parts, provide drawings and the surface-treatment specification.
