SS pipe thickness
SS pipe thickness
(OP)
We have some SS 316 pipelines from 2 to 12" nominal size. The pressure is 0-5 psig and temperature is -45 degree F.
While assessing the NDT reports for these pipelines it came to light that all these lines are sch.5 and sch.10. ( 1 to 3 mm thick).
Even though the thickness is ok for pressure temp rating is is good for mechanical strength point of view. IS there some minimum thickness guidelines for pipe line design
Thanks

From tabulated data, nominal 12-in pipe wall thicknesses for Sch 5 would be 3.96 mm, and for Sch 10, 4.57 mm.
