Justification of use of 8620 carbon steel for ASME B31.3
Justification of use of 8620 carbon steel for ASME B31.3
(OP)
I am trying to find a way to justify the use of ASME SA29 8620 (formerly known as AISI 8620) low-alloy carbon steel for non-standard pressure-containing product for ASME B31.3 applications.
SA 29 is not listed under acceptable materials in Appendix A, so I was wondering if anybody else had encountered this issue.
Thank you,
