Welding of 316SS flange to 310SS pipe - any issues?
Welding of 316SS flange to 310SS pipe - any issues?
(OP)
Folks, one of our suppliers proposes to weld 316SS flange to 310SS flare tip assembly because they cannot obtain 310SS flange in time for our needs. The flare is designed to burn H2S. The flange they are talking about is at the bottom of the tip, i.e. away from the flames. Is anyone aware of any issues of welding 316SS to 310SS? I know 316SS is not suited for high temperature, but it may be OK as it is some distance apart from the flames.

I can't recall the exact temperature but it was in excess of 1200F.
