[MW:4813] Do's and Don'ts for healthy discussion and to save time

By Materials & Welding
Dear MW members,

We have formed a set of guidelines for smooth functioning of our
group.
These are framed to ensure that our group remains adhered to the goals
for which it was created.
Please note that inspite of our efforts, self discipline of the
members will go a long way in improving the overall quality of the
posting as well as reduce the workload of the moderators (in fact this
is the main reason) in particular.

1. Pl. Do not create new threads for existing topics.
2. Pl. Do not change the Subject of the threads. Several of our
members may
be reading the messages through the group web page. Changing the
subject
line might cause trouble for those following a particular thread.
3. Pl. Do not post messages containing topic irrelevant to the
subject of the
thread. Either post in a relevant existing thread or create a new
thread if
necessary.
4. Pl. Do not send "Thank you" messages to the group. In the same
vein, avoid new year wishes etc., You can always exchange
such mails directly with the person(s) concerned.
5. For the sake of your own privacy, pl. avoid sharing personal
details like
telephone number / mailing address in the group. Please ensure that
it is
not exposed even as part of the regular signature at the end of the
message.
6. please don't ask for or post codes/standards or any copy right
material
7. Last but not the least, if your posts have been disallowed,
moderators may have a very good reason to do so. In such a case,
please
contact one of the moderators directly. Avoid posting to the group
about it
or ask some other member to forward such "help me" messages.

Regards,
Moderators.

Note: Suggestions are welcome

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
