Re: [MW:32548] Acceptance criteria for distortion

By Materials & Welding

Just to add,

if Distortion is being observed during WQT welding which results in Closing or opening up of Weld Bevel then normally TPI's do not permit Grinding to set right the bevel and in this case a new WQT required to be Qualified.

Nornally by using strong supports(Stiffeners) and proper Tacks or Bridge Tacks the bevel during WQT qualification can be protected.

Thanks & Regards

The distortion may be due  to lack of sufficient Stiffeners and supports.

Normally the Type of Distortion which occurs is as below.

There are no specific requirements to Distortion while qualifying the WQT. Even WQT's of pipes are being successfully Radiographed. Hence as long as you are able to Radiograph 6inch (150mm) successfully, WQT is considered acceptable.

Dear Expert

Can some help to get the distortion acceptance criteria to WQT at 4G position.

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...
