Re: [MW:32997] PWHT of blind flanges not having welding

Re: [MW:32993] PWHT of blind flanges not having welding

Agreed the PWHT is done for welding, however it is good engineering practice to have all part of equipment undergoing same heat treatment for uniform micro structure across all parts especially very good to practice this for equipment having NACE & sour service. Even blind flange will come in contact with service fluid during process. Discussed this case with many AI & all have same opinion, however do not find any code restrictions.  Also to be noted, we do local SR for some weld due to various reason.

RE: [MW:32959] Inconel 6625 Gr1 - PQR tensile requirements

Hi Some basic information on this alloy is  provided here. If the alloy is of Grade 1 type,  meeting the nominal UTS with ER-NiCr-Mo3 filler and matching SMAW electrodes may be difficult . This would NOT be an issue if the alloy is changed to Type 2,(Solution Annealed ) variety. Pleas find the relevant information as attached.   At the first place, I would like to know, what's the rationale behind choosing Type-1 alloy(Annealed) , strength/weight reduction? Response would be appreciated.   Thanks.     P.Goswami.P.Eng, IWE.

Re: [MW:32958] Inconel 6625 Gr1 - PQR tensile requirements

Hi Balakriahnan,  I do have the same concern with Gr. 1 of UNS 6625 when welded with ERNiCrMo3 Kindly do reconfirm of grade again (Gr. 1 or Gr. 2) . Did you check if the filler mamufacturer can retest the tensile properties and provide the as welded values? 785Mpa  which is 95% of 827Mpa will suffice thd requirment.  We do all weld tensile test for every batch we receive.  I hope the expert in this forum can guidw us to sort this out.  On Tue, Mar 8, 2022, 9:15 AM Balakrishnan Srinivasan < sbkay333@gmail.com > wrote: Dear Experts, Greetings for the day!!
