Re: [MW:10886] Inconel 625 overlay on AISI4140

By Materials & Welding
Dear Venu,

The maximum allowable hardness at any location on welded surfaces, after final machining shall be less than 35 HRC for Ni-Cr-MO-Co (Inconel 625).

Please confirm with vendor regarding PWHT but usually required with this alloy, assuming Weld qualification in accordance with ASME Sec ix, following are the aspects to be considered while reviewing WPS/PQR:-

-No limit on max. deposit thickness qualified- No worries in your case
-Base metal thickness range (1" to unlimited)- No worries in your case
-for processe depositing a weld bead width greater than 1/2 in. wide, the weld overlay shall consist of a minimum of three weld beads in the first layer.
-When a chemical composition is specified in the WPS, chemical analysis specimens shall be removed at locations specified in QW-462.5(b) or QW-462.5(e). The chemical analysis shall be performed in accordance with QW-462.5(a) and shall be within the range specified in the WPS. This chemical analysis is not required when a chemical composition is not specified on the WPS.
-A change in the UNS number for each AWS classification.
-Position and Diameter is supplementary essential variable.
-Liquid Penetrant testing (colour contrast)- Surface Indications (1.6 mm) maximum rounded or linear).
-5X visual examination of cross sectional macro: (0.8 mm) max length of linear or rounded indication).
-Chemical Composition (Weld overlay cladding shall conform to ASTM B424 UNS N08825.

Should you have further query, feel free to post again.

Regards
Manpreet Singh

>Could anyone pl. advice or guide usas we wanted to weld corrosion resistant overlay of Inconel 625 onAISI 4140 on a used sub sea equipment in the oil and gas sector , wherein the application demands severe Tensile and cyclic loads on thecomponent . The overlay shall be of approximately 4~5mm on a 100 mm thicksection .

>The vendor has submitted us two procedureswith pulsed GMAW (Auto ) welding process having with and without PWHT. When we referred the procedure with PWHT we found that theprocedure is qualified (at 540 degreeC @ soaking time 2hrs and rateof heating 150 degree C/Hr)

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

By Materials & Welding
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

By Materials & Welding
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, ...
