BIS CERTIFICATION FOR STEEL TUBES IS 1161:2014
In today's competitive landscape, maintaining market presence without a certified, high-quality product can be challenging. Obtaining a BIS license may also be essential for selling products in the Indian market. To achieve BIS certification and ensure product quality, manufacturers must adhere to the specified Indian standards.
Let's delve deeper into at IS 1161:2014 for Steel Tubes for Structural Purposes.
IS 1161: 2014 pertains to Steel Tubes intended for Structural Applications. It delineates the criteria for hot-finished welded (HFW), hot finished seamless (IFS), electric resistance welded (ERW), or high-frequency induction welded (HRIW) tubes made of plain carbon steel, used for structural purposes.
Steel tubes addressed in this standard must be identified by their nominal bore and categorized as 'Light,' 'Medium,' or 'Heavy,' based on their wall thickness. Additionally, their grading as Y St 2 10, Y St 240, and Y St 3 10 depends on the material's yield stress. Therefore, the designation of steel tubes should encompass the nominal bore, wall thickness classification, and material grade.
The general provisions governing the supply of steel tubes for structural applications should adhere to IS 1387. These tubes must be crafted from steel in line with the specified standards, with adherence to standard sizes and weights. Additionally, structural tubes must boast clean finishes, relatively devoid of scale, and must be free from surface cracks, flaws, laminations, and other imperfections. Manufacture of steel tubes should utilize hot rolled steel strips in compliance with IS 10748. It is imperative that steel tubes meet the stipulated requirements of the standard.

MARKING
Marking procedures must align with IS 1161:2014 standards. Each tube requires appropriate marking, including the manufacturer's name or trademark and the tube's class. Additionally, the Standard Mark (ISI Mark) may be affixed to the tubes. Manufacturers are required to obtain a BIS license from the Bureau of Indian Standards to utilize the standard mark (ISI Mark). This license is granted following a comprehensive evaluation of manufacturing infrastructure, quality control measures, testing capabilities, and manufacturing processes.
