Pickling of hydraulic pipes

Q. I want to set up a valve system in my factory using hydraulic actuators and controls. I will be using at least 450 meters of schedule 80 pipelines of 12 mm and 16 mm. Can someone let me know how the pipelines have to be treated /pickled before assembly. I would like to know if I can do the pickling of the pipes on my own.

Thanks,

What might the pipe material be?
