[MW:30789] SS 410S-405 Forging Material Standard for use in ASME BPVC

Query to use forge component of SS 410S (UNS S41008) OR 405 (UNS S40500) – Ferritic SS (ASME Sec IX P.No.7)

1.  As per ASME, there is no forging material standard for SS 410S (UNS S41008) OR 405 (UNS S40500). Please look at below summary.


However, as per UHA-11 GENERAL
        (a) All materials subject to stress due to pressure shall conform to one of the specifications given in Section II, and shall be limited to those listed in Table UHA-23         except as otherwise provided in         (b) and UG-4.

        (b) The specifications listed in Section II, Part D, Subpart 1, Tables 1A and 3 do not use         a uniform system for designating the Grade number of materials that have approximately the same range of         chemical composition. To provide a uniform system of reference, these tables include a column of UNS (Unified Numbering System) numbers assigned to identify the various alloy compositions.

When these particular UNS numbers were assigned, the familiar AISI type numbers for stainless steels were incorporated into the designation. These type numbers are used in the rules of Part UHA whenever reference is made to materials of approximately the same chemical composition that are furnished under more than one approved specification or in more than one product form.

Query 1: By applying above can we use SA-182 F6a Class 2 (UNS S41000) – Martensitic SS-ASME Sec IX P. No. 6 with following consideration in order to get SS 410S/405 grade of forging material?

·        The chemical and mechanical properties of the SA-182 F6a Class 2 (UNS S41000) material will comply to SA-240 Gr. 410S. The heat treatment and requirement of de-oxidation shall also be as per SA-240 Gr. 410S.
·        SA-182 F6a will be used for the mechanical testing and SA-240 Grade 410S will be considered for final test results acceptance.
·        SA-182/SA-788 will be followed basically for the manufacturing process, tolerance and other similar requirement.

        Query 2: ASTM A 473 one of the Forging material standard where SS 410S (UNS S41008) and 405 (UNS S40500) are included.
Can we use above forging product for ASME Sec IV Div I application?

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, ...
