(OP)
I need to repair a manway collar in a pressure vessel. Does anyone knows if Helicoils are ASME approved for this kind of repairs?. Can anyone give some reference? I know it will work but I also need to meet the code with this repair

HOWEVER, if you don't get resolution on this matter from the API 510 inspector, other options include over sizing the holes or plug welding the existing bolt boles in accordance with the original code of construction, drill and re-tap for use.

PCC-2. You might want to see if you can obtain this document. This could be your basis for acceptance of this repair.

Design your way into the use of the same. In SecVIII it would be U-2g.

Deanc, I think I could use that, but my boss wants some documentation showing this is somehow ASME approved. Thanks to both of you for trying to help me.

The fact that this PCC standard has been approved by the main committee, but not yet published, should not deter your use of the repair concept. Unfortunately, actual publishing of the PCC Standards to the public won’t occur until later this year.
