[MW:3302] RE: 3299] Re: stamping on material

Dear Vinayak,

Thanks for your response.

 

Well this is what I found,

 

ASME B 31.1

133 STAMPING

Stamping, if used, shall be performed by a method

that will not result in sharp discontinuities. In no case

shall stamping infringe on the minimum wall thickness

or result in dimpling or denting of the material being

stamped.

CAUTIONARY NOTE: Detrimental effects can result from

stamping of material which will be in operation under long term

creep or creep fatigue conditions.

 

 Along with this we all know that the stamp should be low stress type with round edges of letters (sharp edges lead to stress concentration points on metal surface). It is generally not recommended for SS as it may lead to surface contamination. Etc.  The usage is dependent on criticality of fabrication (usage temp, cyclic conditions, loading, pr etc) . The questions I asked need specific documental references (if available) for solving the purpose.

I hope you/ someone can further enlighten on this topic.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Rajneesh Gaur

Dear ,  Punching is only for the traceability & identification , few codes accept hard punching in terms of criticality & application criteria. impression marks must not in depth means should not affect thickness and should not create any undue stress

ASME VIII  Div 1 , Subsection A  - Part UG -  clause UG - 10 -General requirements -  enlighten more

Dear all,
First of all I am new to the group and find the information very  interesting and useful.
Can someone answer this question, with references to code etc;
(1)  what is criteria of hard punch ?  when its required ? above what thickness it is allowed?
 
Regards
Rajneesh Gaur

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

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
