5. Marking
Marking shall include size of the pipe (flange), steel grade, trademark and manufacturer’s
name. Marking of the pipe (flange) shall additionally contain:
• designation of standard number or technological normative documentation;
• pipe (flange) number;
• batch or melting number;
• wall thickness;
• stamp of the technical control department.
Designation of the standard or technological normative documentation is allowed to be
applied with paint, which should not be sticky and washable.
Marking of a pipe shall be applied by stamping, an electric pencil, a rubber stamp (indelible
