[MW:929] Re: PWHT of SA 333 Gr.3

  Dear Muhammed,

PWHT temp. may differ by on lower side & higher side by 10 to 15 Deg.C
It wont have any serious impact on mech.properties.
However to convince client u may simulate the condition and send the specimen for mech testing.

Also do your client spec. ask to refer ASME B31.3?
