A number of options are specified in this part of EN 10217. If the buyer indicates at the time of inquiry and order that he does not wish to apply any of these options, the pipe will be supplied in accordance with the basic specification.

When welding pipes manufactured according to this part of EN 10217, one must take into account the fact that the behavior of the steel during and after welding depends not only on the steel, but also on the heat treatment and preparation conditions applied.

The inner and outer surface coating of the pipes will be typical of the manufacturing process and, where applicable, the heat treatment used. Normally the finish and surface condition should be such that any surface defects requiring correction can be identified.

Correction of surface defects only by grinding or machining will be permitted, provided that the wall thickness in the area being corrected thereafter is not less than the specified minimum thickness. All worn areas should blend smoothly into the contour of the tube.

Surface imperfections exceeding the specified minimum wall thickness will be considered defects and pipes containing them will be deemed not to comply with this part of EN 10217.
