Packaging
NIMAX 700 bars can be supplied with two packaging options:
- For diameter between 20-200 mm in bundles with individually cardboard tubes with caracteristic red and white spiral stripes for chromed bars respectively cardboard tubes with blue and white stripes for induction hardened and chromed
- For diameter between 20-80 mm bundles with max 1000 kg weight and for diameter ≥ 80 mm bundles with maximum 1500 kg weight
Each bundle with weight ≤ 1200 kg being equipped with two thongs (four for more than 1200 kg).
Marking
For each bar the cardboard tube will be marked with black colour: "NIMAX CODE / Diameter / Tolerance / Steel grade / Heat no. / Date".
On each bundle (palet) they will be applied minimum one label for identification.
