Steel tubes are hollow, cylindrical constructions that are mostly formed of steel, an iron and carbon-based metal alloy that is robust and long-lasting. These tubes are available in a variety of diameters, shapes, and grades to meet the needs of a broad range of commercial, industrial, and residential uses.
A group of goods used in drilling, exploring, and manufacturing processes is referred to as tubulars. These items, which are usually shaped like tubes, are essential to the extraction of gas and oil. Similar to steel tubes, tubulars are utilized in industrial, plumbing, infrastructural, and building applications.
Components used for joining, modifying, or connecting steel tubes and tubulars are referred to as wrought steel fittings. These fittings come in the form of elbows, tees, reducers, couplings, flanges, and other parts that are intended to join steel pipes securely and impermeably. The oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, water treatment, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), and other sectors depend heavily on these fittings.
Under IS standard IS 1239 (Part-1): 2014, all steel tubes, tubulars, and other wrought steel fittings that are part 1-steel tubes are required to be included in the ISI Certification Scheme.
These kinds of standards are necessary to guarantee the dependability, safety, and quality of steel products across a range of sectors. They offer precise standards and instructions that producers, engineers, and consumers may adhere to while choosing, producing, and utilizing steel tubes for the purposes for which they are designed. Adherence to these standards promotes international trade and collaboration, guarantees product uniformity, and helps avoid mishaps.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
