[MW:12512] PWHT temperature below tempering temperature

Experts,

Pls advise, Client spec as below for PWHT

"For quenched/normalized and tempered steels, the PWHT temperature shall be

such as to avoid an unacceptable decrease of mechanical properties of the

parent material; PWHT temperature shall be maintained at least 20 degC below

the tempering temperature."

And Client recommend to use PWHT temperature is 593–629 deg C, but as per B31.3 it is 593–649 degC. Client reduced 20 degC in the max. temperature range(649-20=629)

Material: CS(A106-B > 20mm)

Is it correct as per spec?

Regards,

Stri

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...
