Tender Overview
Rashtriya Chemicals And Fertilizers Limited (RCF) invites bids for GASKETs for suction strainers of E-325 PHE, using MOC NON ASBESTOS NON METALLIC GASKET SHEET. Two item variants: OD 400 MM × ID 315 MM × 3.0 MM THK and OD 280 MM × ID 200 MM × 3.0 MM THK, both with stringent performance specs. Quantities listed: 250 units per item, for a total of 2 items. Location: Raigad, Maharashtra 400001. The procurement emphasizes exact tensile, compressibility, recovery, and fuel/oil absorption metrics with explicit max working temperature and pressure. The clause enabling quantity variation up to 25% ensures flexibility in order quantity during contract. GST/GARI implications clarified, with invoice issuance in consignee name and GST portal validation. Unique aspect: precise IS/ASTM-compliant material properties included to guarantee leak-tight gasket performance under PHE suction conditions.
