Re: FW: [MW:13105] Type of steel as per chemical proterties

Hi Naing
What I suggest here is get the chemical composition from your bolt specification and compare the PMI result (I did before with Metorex Arc Met-930) against the chemical composition from the specification. Now you can determine is it conform or not. I was always thought that we can not claim the material fall under YYY specification. Only manufacturer has the authority to make a judgment that the material fall under - let's say A105.

Dear,

Use latest equipment optical emission spectrograph, so u can all elements even lighter than sulpher. Match results with ASME II .

use optical emission spectrgraph for PMI and compare results with ASME sec II Part A or B.

Normal PMI equipment like XRF spectrometer cannot identify C.  From my
knowledge , it must be portable spectrometer or similar which will be more
expensive than normal PMI.  If PMI is required for stainless of which carbon
content is the issue such as  347H , it is possible that the client will
require PMI result with carbon content.

Dear How you identified carbon in PMI?..........

Dear friend,

This material is something like CK30. But this kind of material is heat
treatable and you have to sure about this. It is recommended to have a
metallographic test on it for undrestanding such a heat treatment.

Dear Experts,



We did PMI test on one unknown machine bolt from crane boom rest and result
is as follow:

Can someone tell me how can we trace the steel grade base on this result.

Is there any software available?



Thanks and Rgds,

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, ...

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...
