[MW:1588] Re: Mix up of A106 Gr.B and A336 Gr.6 pipes

Dear Mr. Reddy,
 
the mechanical properties of the two steel grades differ, significantly . It might be worth a try to distinguish between them using portable hardness testing like Equotip or Krautkrämer.

Dear Friends,
 
When A106 Gr.B and A336 Gr.6 pipes are physically mixed up and mill identification/ stencilling was lost during painting on external surface. Since both are CS materials, segregation by PMI (i.e by X-Ray spectrometer or by Gamma ray) is not possible.
 
Is there any other NDE method to segregate/ identify them to the respective material specification.
 
Regards,
T S Reddy
