Re: [MW:11143] Use group III filler metal and flux classification for the welding of Group II base metal?

By Materials & Welding
Dear Mr.Mhskar..
 
best option for this material is F7A4 - EM12K.
 
There is no exact equvalent for this material in ASTM.. some of the people will refer A 516 GR.70 ..

Dear All
 
Kindly spare your valuable time & note following & reply me, thanks in advance. 

 

 

Used base  metal grade :-

 

BSEN 10025  Grade – S355J2

Yield Strength ---- 355N/mmSq. Min

Tensile Strength---- 490 TO 630N/MMSq.

Elongation – 22% Min

 

 

 

Al Babtain following AWS D1.1 Code  for  welding and  preparing   WPS/ PQR in line  with selection of base  metal and  filler metal  combination for matching strength from table 3.1. in the above case since  the base  metal is  according to European norms and not covered in AWS D1.1  table 3.1 but it approximately  equivalent to ASTM  A 572 Gr. 50 which tensile strength is 450N/mmSq Min.  and Yield Strength 345 N/mmSq. Min. ---- Group II as per table 3.1

 

 

However, In  actual for  welding  of   said  material  grade S355J2 we used our  qualified  SAW procedure   which is prepared against  group III  Material ASTM  A 572 Gr. 60. with filler  wire and  flux classification is F8A4-EA3K-A4

 

Now my Query is  could  we use group III  filler metal and  flux classification for  the  welding of Group II base  metal?

 

If you have any equivalent grades table please forward me.

 

 BSEN ISO 10025- Grade S355J2 which grade is equivalent in ASTM material

 

 

Thanks with  best regards,

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, ...
