1 SCHEME OF TESTING AND INSPECTION FOR CERTIFICATION OF STEEL WIRE ROPES FOR GENERAL ENGINEERING PURPOSES ACCORDING TO IS 2266:2002 (Fourth Revision) Doc:STI/2266/5 1. LABORATORY: A laboratory shall be maintained, which shall be suitably equipped and staffed, where different tests given in the specification shall be carried out in accordance with the methods given in the specification. 2. TEST RECORDS: All records of tests, inspection and calibration shall be kept in suitable forms approved by the Bureau. 2.1 All tests apparatus/measuring instruments shall be periodically checked and calibrated and records of such checks/calibration shall be maintained. 2.2 Copies of any records and other connected papers that may be required by the Bureau shall be made available at any time on request. 3. QUALITY CONTROL: It is recommended that as far as possible, Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods may be used for controlling the quality of the product during production as envisaged in this Scheme [Sec IS 397 (Part I):1972, IS 397 (Part 2):1985 and IS 397 (Part 3):1980]. 3.1 In addition, effort should be made to gradually introduce a Quality Management System in accordance with IS/ISO 9000 series as appropriate to the activities of the organization. 4. STANDARD MARK: The Standard Mark, as given in Column (1) of the First Schedule of the license, shall be stamped on a metal tag attached to each reel or drum on which ropes are coiled, provided always that the wire rope coiled on the reel or drum to which this Mark is thus applied conforms to every requirement of the specification. 4.1 The standard mark shall be applied in such a manner that it gets destroyed when the reels are opened for use, as otherwise this might be misused. 4.2 In addition a certificate of conformance shall also be supplied along with each consignment of wire ropes as per format given in Annexure A, copies of all such certificates be preserved for future reference. 5. OTHER MARKING: In addition, the following information shall be legibly stamped upon a metallic tag securely attached, when wire ropes are supplied in coils. In case, the wire ropes are supplied in reels, the information may be stenciled on both sides on the reels or stenciled on one side of the reel and metallic tag giving the information may be attached on the other side of the reel.

2 Doc:STI/2266/5 a) Name of the manufacturer or his recognized trade mark, if any; b) Type of construction; c) Identification in code or otherwise (reel/coil number), to enable the date and lot of manufacture to be traced back to the factory records; d) Nominal diameter or ropes (size); e) Core; f) Order number of purchaser; g) Lay; h) Rope grade; i) Coating; j) Any other marking specified by purchaser; and k) License number (CM/L..). 6. LEVELS OF CONTROL: The tests, as indicated in table 1 attached and at the levels of control specified therein, shall be carried out on the whole production of the factory which is covered by this scheme and appropriate records and charts maintained in accordance with paragraph 2.0 above. All the production which conforms to the Indian Standards and covered by the license shall be marked with certification mark of the Bureau. 6.1 In respect of all other clauses of the specification the factory will maintain appropriate control and checks to ensure that their product conforms to the various requirements of this specification. 7. REJECTIONS: A separate record shall be maintained giving information relating to the rejection of the production not conforming to the requirements of the specification and the method of its disposal. Such material shall in no circumstances be stored together with that conforming to the specification. 8. SAMPLES: The licensee shall supply, free of charge, the samples required in accordance with the Bureau of Indian standards (certification) regulations, 1988, as subsequently amended, from the factory or godowns. The Bureau shall pay for the samples taken by it from the open market. 9. REPLACEMENT: Whenever a complaint is received soon after the goods with standard Marks have been purchased and used and if there is adequate evidence that the goods have not been misused, defective goods or their components are replaced or repaired free of cost by the licensee in case the complaint is proved to be genuine and the warranty period (where applicable) has not expired. The final authority to judge the conformity of the product to the Indian Standard shall be with the Bureau.

3 Doc:STI/2266/5 9.1 In the event of any damage caused by the goods bearing the Standard Mark, or claim being filed by the consumers against BIS standard Mark and not conforming to the relevant Indian standard, entire liability arising out of such non conforming product shall be of licensee and BIS shall not in any way be responsible in such cases STOP MARKING: The marking of the product shall be stopped under intimation to the Bureau if, at any time, there is some difficulty in maintaining the conformity of their product to the specification or the testing equipment goes out of order. the marking may be resumed as soon as the defects are removed under intimation to Bureau the marking of the product shall be stopped immediately if directed to do so by Bureau for any reason. The marking may then be resumed only after permission by the Bureau. The information regarding resumption of markings shall also be sent to the Bureau PRODUCTION DATA: The licensee shall send to BIS as per the enclosed proforma-1 to be authenticated by a chartered accountant or by the manufacturer by giving an affidavit/undertaking, a statement of quantity produced, marked and exported by him and the trade value thereof at the end of each operative year of the license.
