Ordinary Surface
Galvanized Surface (hot-dip galvanizing thickness ≥ 85μm, service life up to 15-20 years),
Black Oil Surface
Use in Construction:
Utilized as frame beams and columns for multi-story office and residential buildings, shopping malls and as primary structural and crane beams in industrial buildings and warehouses.
Bridge Engineering:
With the suitability for small to mid-size spans of the deck and beams can be used in road and rail bridges.
Municipal & Special Projects:
Used in subway stations, urban pipeline corridor supports, tower crane foundations and temporary easement enclosures.
Industrial Plant Support:
Acts as a backbone to the machine providing vertical, horizontal loads and it holds the entire structure.
1) Branch Office - Spanish-speaking support, customs clearance assistance, etc.
2) Over 5,000 tons of stock in stock, with a wide variety of sizes
3) Inspected by authoritative organizations such as CCIC, SGS, BV, and TUV, with standard seaworthy packaging
PACKING
Basic Protection: Every package is bundled in tarpaulin with 2-3 desiccants bags in the bundle and the bundle is wrapped with heat-sealed rainproof tarpaulin.
Bundling: The strapping is 12-16mm Φ steel strap that fit for American port lifting equipments, 2-3 tons per bundle.
Conforming Label: Bilingual (English + Spanish) labels are affixed the material, specification, HS code, batch and test report number with the test report.
DELIVERY
Road transport: Load is trucked with securing anti-slip devices for short distances or when direct access to the construction site is available.
Rail transport: Bulk transport over the long distance at lower cost than by road over the long distance.
Sea transport: Used for domestic transport in container or in transport of long products in bulk or open top containers either in closed containers or in open top containers.
Inland waterway/barge transport: Ultra-large H beams can be transported in bulk on rivers and inland waterways.
Special transport: H-beams that are too big and/or too heavy to be transported by standard means, are carried on multi-axle low-bed or combination trailers.
US MARKET SHIPPING: ASTM H-Beams are batched packed to the Americas they are bundled with steel straping, the ends are protected and can be treated for rust aersion to shield the beams on the way.
Q: What standards are your H beams made for Central America?
A: Our H beam conform to ASTM A36 and A572 Grade 50 which is widely used in Central America. We can also provide goods according to local standard such as Mexico NOM.
Q: What is the lead time to Panama?
A: Shipment by sea from Port Tianjin to Colon Free Trade Zone is 28-32 days. The delivery time including production time and customs clearance is 45-60days. Expedited shipping is available.
Q: Do you help me clear customs?
A: Yes, We partner with professional customs brokers in Central America to process declarations, taxes and all best practices needed for seamless delivery.
