Re: [MW:35664] CRA

Sir, 

With reference to your query regarding the required tests for corrosion resistant overlay procedure and performance qualification as per ASME Section IX, Table QW-453, in addition to the mentioned LPT and bend tests, the following supplementary tests are recommended—especially considering the application for overlay:

1. Chemical Analysis – As per ASME Section IX Figure QW-462.5(a) to verify composition of the deposited layer. Attached snapshot 

2. Hardness Survey – In accordance with NACE MR0175 to ensure compatibility with sour service, if applicable.

3. Metallographic Examination – To assess overlay quality, dilution, and fusion characteristics.

4. Microstructure Examination – Typically conducted at 100X to 500X magnification.

5. Ultrasonic Testing (UT) – To check for disbondment between the base metal and overlay.

Please ensure these tests are reviewed in alignment with project or client-specific requirements.

BR, 

Deerendra
