This means that the common oxidation surface caused by the welding heat shall be
removed by brushing with a brush made of a material equal to the piping material,
e.g. stainless steel wire. The cleaned surface shall then be treated with pickling and
passivating agent, which forms a chromium oxide surface to protect the surface
against corrosion.

included in the supply.

The Purchaser will verify the quality of seams by non-destructive or destructive spot-
examination. For destructive examination, the Purchaser can remove some welds at
the Purchaser's expense. It is the duty of the Contractor to replace these welds.

faulty weld that has been detected, the Contractor shall at his own expense make
radiographic examination of two other similar welds chosen by Purchaser.

If one of these welds is rejected, four new welds shall be examined. Should one of
these welds be rejected, all the actual welder's welds shall be examined, and the
welder himself be subject to renewed performance qualification.

If any weld is rejected, and the welder's identification mark cannot be found, the
examination shall be extended to 4 additional welds.

All extended examination, repairs and re-examination shall be carried out at the
expense of the Contractor.
