[MW:3060] Re: API 5L GR.B & ASTM A106 GR.B

You are right tong tong.

 

However, In Next addenda of ASME Section IX, QW-420 will be revised to indicate all S number qualification good for P numbers.

Dear Sohaib,

Based on ASME IX, API 5L Gr. B assigned as a S-1 while A 106 Gr. B assigned as a P-1. If procedure qualification testing was done using material assigned an S-Number or S-Number Group Number, the range qualified is limited to materials that are assigned
S-Numbers or S-Numbers Group Numbers (i.e., qualification using a P-Number material qualifies corresponding S-Number materials; qualification using an S-Number material qualifies corresponding S-Number materials but not corresponding P-Number materials; qualification of welders using a P-Number material qualifies them to weld on corresponding S-Number materials and vice versa). For more details you can refer to QW-420.

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

If you want help, help other,
If you want trust, trust others,
If you want Love, spread it away,
If you want friends, be a True one.

If you want a great TEAM, Be a Great TEAMMATE.

Teamwork is less "EGO" and more "We Go"

The great Companies and Teams are those,
That share the similarities,
and celebrate the differences.

They seek harmony, not uniformity.
They hire Talent, not Color or Caste.
They strive for oneness, not sameness.

No one goes alone to the height of Excellence.
Your Success will depend on others,
And theirs will depend on You.

Remember, the meaning of Team is
T : Together
E: Everyone
A: Achieves
M : More
