Re: [MW:35134] Fwd: Hardness test requirements ( Nos. of reading requirement in pipe weld)

Dear Lalit,

Based on client specification

Hardness tests on a production weld shall include a reading on the centre of the weld and the heat affected zones on both sides of the weld. The hardness test of the heart affected
zone shall be made at a point as near to the edge of the weld as practicable.

Each test area three impacts shall be carried out and the average of these shall be recorded. All results and averages shall be recorded on the Hardness Test InspectionReport.

Butt welds on pipes of nominal size upto and including DN100 (4") one set of
readings shall be taken on the 12 o' clock position or 6 o' clock position

Butt welds on pipes of nominal size from DN150 (6") to DN300 (12"), two sets of
readings shall be taken 120° apart, with one set on the 12 o' clock position & o' clock
position

Branch connections and fillet welds on pipes of all diameters, two sets of
readings 180° apart shall be taken.

Note: location shall be approved by CONTRACTOR/COMPANY prior inspection

Best Regards
V.Kingsly Geo.

Dear Group members,

I have a query regarding hardness testing in pipe weld size 2" to 30".
Have any procedure or code standards for taking nos of reading for hardness test on Pipe weld like diff sizes..
Like 2"-to 6"
8"- to 14"
16"- to 30".

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...
