Re: [MW:3745] Bolts/Nuts Material

RP,Thanks,
 
Any one have idea about what will be cost difference incurred for HDG & Cadmium plating.
and can we use Cadmium plating for bolts on high temp service (165ºC)
 
Thanks,

I was referring coating of HDG/Cd Plating on CS bolts only i.e.a193GRB7 and not on B8 bolts which are ss.HDG/Cd plating shall not be any issue on A193B7 bolts.

RP,
 
Thanks, I should not deviate from company specs, what I can do is whether to approve the vendor proposal or not.
on A193 GR. B8 HDG may not stick unless zinc penetrates the passive oxide film on SS
Does A193 Gr. B7 material can be HDG?

Zinc Electroplating is not a very durable/useful coating.Its thk is also around 15 microns only.Better ones are Cadmium Plating,Hot Dip galvanizing and Barium carbonate coating.

HI,
 
I want to clarify a deviation request from Valve vendor,
As per the client specs,
 
For Bolting for Bonnet, Packing-box etc
All carbon steel or low alloy steel bolting shall be zinc plated(elctro-deposited), bichromated.
 
but vendor is proposing
 

Our proposal for A216 WCC Body (Non-Sour) as follows;

Body Studs & Nuts (21000 Series): A193 Gr.B7 / A194 Gr.2H zincplated

(without chromated)

Body Studs & Nuts (35002 Series): A193 Gr.B8 CL.1 / A194 Gr.8

Gland Studs & Nuts : A193 Gr.B8 CL.1 / A194 Gr.8
 
so my dout is in humid areas like Japan we need the bolts to be
Zincplated/bichromated to prevent white rust and in hot areas like
Qatar its not required. 
Please confirm my understanding,
(As the specs were basically developed by JGC they specified as
zinc plated/bichromated)

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, ...
