[MW:3049] Re: API 5L GR.B & ASTM A106 GR.B

Dear Sohaib,
 
It will depend on the code you are using is yourexisting procedure has the same code as to the new one you intend to use.
 
Does it cover the thickness and Diameter range
 
As per AWS D 1:1 they come is same group
 
As per ASME Sex IX , they have same Group No. 1 .
 
They have the same strenght 60 Ksi - Tensile strenght .
 
You have to see if any additional Test is required i.e Impact or Corrosion test by the client Spec. as to the previous
 
If all are matching need to check the Electrode Batch or need to contuct the batch test .
 
Let me know if any more information is required or it covers your query .
 
Thanks
