Re: [MW:4004] RE: 3998] Re: WELDING CONSUMABLE FOR SMAW & SAW API 5L X 70

Thank you for information. I have selected electrode 9010 P1 and for SAW i selected EA4F92 to be confirmed with supplier.

best regards.

G classification can be selected based on their data sheet for intended application (i.e. if specified for for X 70), as the properties will vary from each brand/batch.
For e.g. E 8010-G branded as Shield Arc 70+ by Lincoln electric may be used for this grade or you can use specific electrodes suffixed as P1 intended for pipeline application such as E 8010-P1, better to contact your consumables supplier for available choices.
E8018 C3 may be used if you need impact testing.
PWHT depends on your thickness and the code of construction

Your choice of selection for SMAW is not suitable for a joint where back chipping to sound metal not possible.
Regarding SAW better to contact you r consumable supplier for suitable wire/flux combination, as choice between EA series with 1/2 Mo Vs EM2

PWHT for API pipe qualification will be as per ASME B31.3. Upto 19mm thickness PWHT is not required.

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi, You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this. Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime. Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC. The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case). One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example. In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

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...
