Packaging
NIMAX 1000 NCT tubes can be supplied with two packaging options:
- In bundles (each bar is individually packaging in cardboard tubes with caracteristic orange and white spiral stripes) for standard lengths
- On wooden europalets from smallest cut lenghts
Marking
For each bar the cardboard tube will be marked with black colour: "NIMAX 1000 NCT / ODxID diameter/ Tolerance / Steel grade/ heat no. / date".
Where: OD = outside diameter and ID = inside diameter.
On each bundle (palet) they will be applied minimum one label for identification.
