Re: [MW:35748] PQR- Chemical testing requirements

Hi All,
     Chemical testing is mandatory for Corrosion resistant/Hard facing overlay PQR but not butt welds.

Regards,
Mr. Harish.

Inaddition to the below. Please ensure

1. Minimum Design Metal Temperature (MDMT) to determine the Impact test requirement. Normally A 106 Gr,.B pipe used for a temperature of -29degC.
2. Please check with Mechanical Testing Lab, how many (2inch Pipe) coupons required for the PQR, may be 4 Nos

Thanks & Regards

For your 2-inch 8 mm thick CS pipe welded, as per ASME Sec. IX standard, you require:
Visual examination,
2 Tensile tests, 
2 each in the face and root bends.
No hardness, impact  and chemical tests are required. 
Use the MTC of the base metal if required.
Micro/Macro are required for Fillet weld only.

Good Day to all,

Reference std: ASME SEX IX

Material ASTM A106 Gr B

Pipe Dia and thickness: 2" and 8.74 mm.

Service Fluid: Normal fluid

as per the Standard ASME SEX IX ( no client/company specification involved )

1. What are the minimum testing requirements to qualify the PQR?

2. Is chemical testing required or not?

Thanks 

Best Regards
V.Kingsly Geo

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...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
