Quality — questions buyers ask
What is the difference between EN 10204 3.1 and 3.2?
A 3.1 certificate is issued by the manufacturer's inspection department with actual test results for the delivered material. A 3.2 certificate is additionally verified and countersigned by an independent inspector or the purchaser's representative. Read the full guide.
Can you supply NACE MR0175 compliant material?
Yes, for the grades and conditions the standard allows. Ask for the compliance statement at enquiry so hardness and heat-treatment requirements are checked before the material is allocated.
Are you ISO 9001 certified?
Yes. Kanak Steel & Engineering Co. is certified to ISO 9001:2015, certificate no. 1283384, issued by Unitas Certification Services and valid until 10 February 2028.
Do you do PMI?
Yes. Positive material identification is available on request for any grade and is our normal practice on nickel alloys.
