Hi, Using E6010-G would keep the dilution level as minimum, but at the same time, it wouldn;t give the UTS equal to Parent metal UTS for API5L X65?

Can you please advise, why E6010-G (root) & E-7010-P1 (hot/fill) are used for Oil pipelines(Sour) containing parent material of API 5L X65. Since these type of PQR/WPS are being approved by most of the Company.
As, X65 has an YS of 65,000 Psi, whilst the electrodes used E6010 has YS of 48,000 Psi, and E-7010-P1 has YS of 60,000 psi. By using both of these electrodes the weld metal strength would not exceed YS 60,000 psi.
How its acceptable to keep the low weld metal strength(<YS 60,000 Psi) than the parent metal (= YS 65,000Psi).
Thy suppose to use E8010 for root and E8018 for hot/fill, for API 5L X65 materials, which only would give the equivalent WM strength.
As we all know that overmatching weld metal strength causes gross section yielding in the pipe, whereas Undermatching weld metal strength will cause straining of the weld.
Your advise/suggession, based on experience is appreciated.
Regards,
Ari

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...

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...
