Re: [MW:32767] PWHT and Hydrotest

Hi,
As per Table UCS56-1- Note (b) of Section VIII,Div.1 , for 32mm to 38mm thickness PWHT is not mandatory as below. But hydrostatic test to be done as per the drawing & Design requirements.

GENERAL NOTES:
(a) When it is impractical to postweld heat treat at the temperature specified in this Table, it is permissible to carry out the postweld
heat treatment at lower temperatures for longer periods of time in accordance with Table UCS-56.1.
(b) Postweld heat treatment is mandatory under the following conditions:
(1) for welded joints over 11/2 in. (38 mm) nominal thickness;
(2) for welded joints over 11/4 in. (32 mm) nominal thickness through 11/2 in. (38 mm) nominal thickness unless preheat is
applied at a minimum temperature of 200°F (95°C) during welding. This preheat need not be applied to SA-841 Grades A and
B, provided that the carbon content and carbon equivalent (CE) for the plate material, by heat analysis, do not exceed 0.14%
and 0.40%, respectively, where

Hello everyone,

If 4-5 mm welding is performed in the 32 mm thick material, is PWHT & Hydro required or not or can I skip PWHT and Hydro? any clause related to this??

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...
