RE: [MW:13283] Surface roughness measurement instruments.

By Materials & Welding

Dear all,

 

As far as I know Sa2,5  indicates the surface cleaness (the rust grade) of the substrate see ISO 8501). Surface roughness calues can be estimated using surface profile comparators (e.g  see  EN ISO 8503)

 

Regards

Dear Mr. Rao,

 

Be aware that the microns you mention is not the surface roughness but the coating layer thickness (DFT = Drie Film Thickness).

For surface roughness you will have values like SA 2,5 microns or similar and in practice mostly the comparators are used for inspection prior to first layer of coating.

After fist coating layer there is no need to measure the roughness anymore.

 

Met vriendelijke groeten / Best Regards

Dear Mr. Rao,

There are portable surface roughness measuring instruments to measure as required.

UK based Rank Taylor Hobson instruments are available in India.

Dear Experts,

 

I work as inspection Engineer. When i go for Blasting inspection, contractor provided  me profile comparator for surface roughness measurement.

 

Contractor do  Grit blasting in the shop.

 

I need to measure surface roughness  -  75-100 microns      Painting system No#1

                                                            50-75 microns        Painting system No#2

Queries

Q 1: Comparator is enough for surface roughness measurements.

 

Q2: Is any other tools available for roughness measurement?.

 

Q3:  What is the normal industry practice.


Pl. provide your valuable suggestions as i'm new for painting activities.

Rao.

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, ...
