GI Pipes:
Pipes are manufactured as per British Standard Specification # BS -1387/1998l.
They come in four types of wall thickness and have the following brand names: Silver, Gold, Diamond and Ruby.

The nominal bore ranges from 0.5 to 4 inches and the wall thickness ranges from 1.60 mm to 4.50 mm. The BSCL also manufactures steel tubes that are suitable for screwing-on to BS 21 pipe threads. They come in three categories: light, heavy and medium, varying by nominal size thread designation, wall thickness and outside diameter. Seamless and welded steel tubes are
manufactured at the BSCL.

The pipes are put through a battery of tests. These include: (1) physical inspection of outside diameter, wall thickness, length and thread pitch; (2) bending test; (3) flattening test; (4) tensile strength test; (5) galvanisation test; and a (6) hydrostatic pressure test.

They are made out of imported Japanese HR Coil
Pipes are galvanised with 99.995 % pure zinc
They have a smooth inside bore ensuring smooth flow of fluids
They can withstand high pressure and heat
Pipes do not crack when bent
Long rust-free life

LP Gas Cylinders:

The LP gas cylinders have a standard specification of DOT- 4BA-240. The cylinders have a water capacity of 26.6 litres. Some features are listed below:

 

Product capacity: Gas= 12.5 kg, Butane= 13 kg, Propane= 11 kg
Service pressure = 17 kg/sq. cm
Hydrostatic test pressure = 34 kg/sq. cm
HR Coil thickness = 3.2 mm
Minimum wall thickness at curvature = 3 mm
Cylinders fitted with imported compact valve
Every cylinder is sold with a quality assurance certificate
Cylinders are subjected to impact strength, burst and heat tests

Steel Bars:

Under the category of steel bars, the following items are produced:

deformed bars (for the reinforcement of concrete)
carbon steel bars
angle bars
steel channels

These items are put through a series of tests to ensure robust quality. Customers prefer Bashundhara bars because:

they are made from imported billets or imported scrap
the chemical composition of each melt is tested in the well
they are tested in labs for tensile strength, per cent elongation and bending
diameter, lug specification, and mass per unit length are regularly examined
higher yield strength than most commonly-marketed bars.
