3. TERMINOLOGY
3.1 General
3.1.1 "Southwest Gas," "Southwest" or "SWG" wherever used in this
specification and other related documents will refer exclusively to
Southwest Gas Corporation.
3.1.2 The terms "approve," "as approved," "satisfactory," "as directed," "or
equal," or other similar terms wherever used in this specification and
other related documents, will mean "as determined by Southwest Gas,"
unless specifically stated otherwise.
3.1.3 “Product Information Package” or “PIP” wherever used in this
specification and other related documents will mean the required
information that a manufacturer must submit to SWG to determine if the
product is suitable for use by SWG, unless specifically stated otherwise.

4. MATERIAL AND MANUFACTURING

4.1 Pipe purchased under this specification will be manufactured, as a minimum, in
accordance with API Specification 5L Performance Service Level (PSL) 1 or (PSL) 2
and additional requirements as defined in this qualification.
4.2 PSL 1 shall require staff approval.
4.3 Cold-expanded pipe is not acceptable.
4.4 Jointers are not permitted.
4.5 All pipe will be beveled to an angle of 30° with a tolerance of +5°, -0°. The bevel will
be measured from a line drawn perpendicular to the axis of the pipe with a root face
of 1/16 inch, ± 1/32 inch.
4.6 The pipe will be visually examined and will be free of defects as defined in API
Specification 5L in the finished condition. This includes, but not limited to, cracks,
dents, inclusions or electric-weld flash, both internal and external. The pipe surface
will be free from scale and injurious defects.
4.7 The maximum carbon equivalency (CE) value will be 0.43%. The International
Institute of Welding (IIW) formula found in API 5L will be used to determine the CE.

7. INSPECTION

7.1 Successful review of the Product Information Package (PIP), as well as any future
reference by SWG to the Seller’s part number or internal code number in any future
contract or purchase, will mean only that no conflict with the specification was found
and will not relieve the Seller from meeting all the requirements of this specification.
7.2 Southwest retains the option to inspect the manufacture and testing of all materials,
products or systems referenced in this specification that are sold to Southwest.

7. INSPECTION (Cont’d)
7.3 Southwest will make appropriate inspections and tests of all materials, products or
systems supplied to this specification. SWG will have the right, at their option, to
reject any material which fails to conform to this specification. Any such rejection
may take place at the manufacturer’s facility; the supplier’s warehouse or any
subsequent delivery location, before or after SWG assumes possession. Notice of
rejection will be made promptly thereafter by SWG. The defective product will be
replaced or returned for credit at the manufacturer’s expense.
7.4 Any changes in the manufacturing of previously approved materials, products or
systems described in this material specification for sale to SWG, must be approved
by SWG’s Engineering Staff. Failure to obtain SWG’s approval may be cause
for rejection and disqualification as an approved supplier.

8. CERTIFICATION
The manufacturer's or supplier's certification will be furnished to Southwest. This
certification will state that samples representing each lot have been manufactured, tested,
and inspected in accordance with this specification and that all requirements have been
met. When requested or specified in the purchase order or contract, a report of test results
will be provided.
Testing documentation demonstrating the physical characteristics of the pipe which
includes, at a minimum, diameter, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, wall thickness,
seam type and chemical composition shall be provided to Southwest in accordance with
49 CFR 192.
Upon the request of Southwest, Electronic Material Test Reports (MTR’s) shall also be
provided in accordance with the API RP 5MT. Data Interchange method and Data Model
shall be agreed to by Southwest prior to purchase. If special software or access is
required to view and copy the electronic MTR, the manufacturer shall provide free of
charge to Southwest and our Distributor. The certification of an independent third-party
indicating conformance to this specification may be considered at Southwest's expense.
