[MW:16055] FW: 16018] filler material properties- E9018-G after PWHT Quench and temper.

 Hi Hemu, 
 
As per ASME any electrode conforming to "G" classification is a condition specific  product. Electrodes with "G" classification have to  . It has to meet the mechanical properties as specified in SFA 5.5.However the  impact is subject to what the client wants vs. what the electrode manufacturer can provide. This needs to be discussed with the electrode manufacturer.
 
FYI I've attached a data sheet of E-9018G electrode (only for information & illustration).. This electrode will not qualify for NACE MR-0175 application unless "Ni" is reduced below 1%. Meeting the mechanical properties after normalizing should not be a concern with these electrodes.
 
Could you plea provide details on what your supplier had recommended???
 
Appreciate your feedback.
 
Thanks

Subject: [MW:16018] filler material propertis- E9018-G after PWHT Quench and temper.

Dear experts,
 
Please provide us some guidance.
 
Situation:

We are salvaging castings of grade ASTM A487-4C, using filler material E 9018-G (Ni- less than 1%). This material needs to comply with filler metal chemistry per NACE MR 01 75.

We intend to do a PWHT as Normalize, quench and temper as similar to that of the parent metal.

Proposed austenize (normalize) temperature is 920 Deg C and temper temperature is of 680 Deg C.

Please clarify us the following:

  1. Would the all weld metal mechanical properties still meet the parent material requirements? (after Normalize, quench and temper)
  2. Does the weld metal charpy values meet 27J at minus 46 DegC?
  3. what would be the microstructure of the filler material after PWHT?
  4. Any filler material available that guarantee the above mechanicalproperties in normalize, quench temper condition suitable for A 487-4C material?

COIMBATORE.

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...

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, ...
