Manufacturing Quality Process
Six-stage quality control process from raw material to certified finished product.
Raw Material Incoming
All brass bar stock and components verified against material certificates (EN 10204) before entering production.
CNC Precision Machining
Automated CNC turning centers maintain tolerances of ±0.02mm on all critical dimensions including thread form and orifice diameter.
Chrome Plating Line
Multi-stage electroplating process: alkaline cleaning → copper strike → semi-bright nickel → bright nickel → chrome. ASTM B456 compliant.
Glass Bulb Integration
Calibrated glass bulbs installed and leak-tested. Each sprinkler hydrostatically tested to 20 bar (3× working pressure).
Performance Testing
Sample lots tested for activation temperature, flow rate, water distribution, and impact resistance per UL 199 and FM 2000 protocols.
UL/FM Audit Compliance
Annual factory inspections by UL and FM Global auditors to maintain certification. Traceability records retained for 10 years.
