Published ranges are technical references, not a live-stock or production-capability promise. The final range, MOQ and delivery schedule are confirmed in the quotation.
Edge or end condition
- Edge or end condition is confirmed from the product form, standard and downstream fabrication need.
Testing and inspection
- Tests required by the governing purchased standard.
- PMI, NDE, corrosion, roughness or other supplementary inspection only when specified and confirmed in the quotation.
Order documents
- Inspection document type and content as ordered.
- Heat or lot traceability and supplementary reports when included in the accepted inspection plan.
Export packaging
- Export packing selected for product form, finish, dimensions, weight and transport route.
- Film, caps, interleaving, skids, cases or moisture protection only as confirmed in the order.
Machining stock, specified properly
For CNC shops the useful spec is diameter tolerance and straightness, not just grade: bright drawn bar to h9 runs directly in bar feeders; h11 suits general turning; peeled bar removes surface defects on larger diameters. State your tolerance class and we quote accordingly.
Free-machining alternative
High-volume turned parts may justify 303 (sulfur-added free-machining grade) instead of 304. When the project specification permits either grade, request alternative quotations and compare machining benefit against 303’s lower corrosion resistance and weldability.
Traceability
When heat traceability and EN 10204 3.1 documentation are required, state the tagging, bundling and document requirements in the RFQ and confirm them in the accepted order. Chemistry and mechanical minimums are on the 304 datasheet.
