FW: [MW:3727] ASME B31.3 unlisted materials



 Hi John,

 

I have attached a spec for 4130 steel FYI. The summarized details are as follows:-

§                ASTM 519 Gr 4130—Nearest ASME Sec IX P No- 4. (typically 1.00- 1.25 Cr, 0.5% Mo)

§                Welding  Consumables–SMAW –E-8018 B2 or 7018-B2L , GTAW-ER-80S-B2

§                PWHT—Follow PWHT requirements for P4 materials as asked by B 31.1 code (Table 331.1.1).

§                Recommended PWHT cycle should be , Soaking Temp-1300-13750F, Soaking Time -1 Hr/inch of thickness, Minimum soak time –1 hr

§                Targeted hardness 225 BHN Max.

 

Since this material is not listed in B-31.3, proper design evaluation, stress analysis (if required) should be done prior to use. Follow the guidelines of B-31.13 code for the same.

 

You may find the guidelines of ASME 31.3 code on the use of unlisted materials, as mentioned below.

 

Hope this would be of help to you.

 

Thanks.

What is the unlisted material, could you be specific, i.e. could you please provide specification or composition etc.
 
Thanks.
