Hi
Is It Necessary to do heat treatment for SS 304 3/4" tube after U bending?

RE: Heat Treatment for SS304 After U Bend

It depends on the service application. If you want maximum corrosion resistance, yes, a solution anneal should be performed.

kimiagar79;
I would use ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section I or VIII, Div 1 as proof of claim.  

RE: Heat Treatment for SS304 After U Bend

I am wondering when heat treating 304 ss is necessary according to ASME Division VIII (2007)code.  The final product is a ss pressure vessel.

Thanks.

Read UHA-44 in ASME Section VIII, Div 1 to find your answer.
