PWHT of AUSTENITIC STEEL
PWHT of AUSTENITIC STEEL
(OP)
hello
In ASME code for Austenitic stainless steel ( 18Cr-8Ni) no PWHT requirement is given,
it says "PWHT is neither permitted nor prohibited", but my service requires PWHT so how should we perfrom the PWHT and what are the factots should I consider while ordering the materials..
Thanks.

Just because an unsophisticated customer asks for PWHT of stainless steel, does not mean that it is appropriate.
