316L Base metal & Filler metal service Temperature
(OP)
Guys,
Can you help me out to find a document to client which said the 316L Base metal or Filler metal can work at elevated temperature. Actually our equipment service temperature is more than 600 degree so we need to prove 316L base metal & filler wire can work at elevated temperature with out any defect.

Alloy selection should be a combination of reduced allowable stress,and Scaling Resistance.

B16.5 requires flanges to be H grade above 1000 F, but pipe and fittings etc. can be L grade as long as these lower stress values are used.
