UKRAINE STEEL
UKRAINE STEEL
(OP)
I am having some nozzles added to a vessel. As a part of the specification for the alteration, it states that materials from Eastern Europe or Russia need to be approved on an individual basis.
The vessel fabricator has manufactured some of the nozzles using SA106 GrB material from a Ukrainian company called JSC. Does anyone know specifically of any quality problems with this company? Does anyone know where this kind of information can be researched?

That said, how far down this path you go can vary widely depending on the end user requirements, the value of materials to be purchased, and the level of risk.
RE: UKRAINE STEEL
the problem is, was the manufacturer made aware of the material restrictions at time of quoting or at time of purchase order.
If he was, make him replace it. or pull samples from the heats and retest chemicals and physicals to see if they match MTRs and meet code. THEN you can go to the user and ask permission to use.
Its embarrassing to ask to use only to find out later it's sub-standard
RE: UKRAINE STEEL
The manufacturer was aware of the material restrictions at the time of quoting and the end user has asked that the material be replaced. So that is how we are proceeding.

Or replace it.
