New clarification added: Could you please delete the requirement of clause 2.2.5 (Lots 1, 2, 3) - The surface of the steel pipe (both external and internal) before applying insulation should be thoroughly cleaned and degreased, electroplating on the surface is applied anti-corrosion coating. The quality of the preparation of the steel pipe to the insulation is to be confirmed by the manufacturer's certificates (including mandatory ultrasonic flaw detection).The standards for the production of Pre-insulated pipes and shaped products prohibit the application of any coating to the surface of a steel pipe before applying polyurethane foam insulation, as this action can lead to a disruption of the technological process and deterioration in the quality of fixation (adhesion) of polyurethane foam to the steel pipe.Dear BidderThank you for your request. Please find the answer below.Clause 2.2.5 applies to the outer and inner surfaces of steel pipes.The requirements for surface cleaning are set out in clause 7.1.8.3. DSTU B V.2.5-31:2007. As for the application of anti-corrosion coating, this applies to the inner surface and non-insulated pipe ends.Thank you.

Is there a mistake regarding the wall thickness of the steel pipe for items 1.6, 1.13 of Lot 1 and item 1.6 of Lot 2 and item 1.6 of Lot 3?Dear BidderThank you for your request. Please find the answer below.There is no mistake in the technical requirements.
