(OP)
We are manufacturer of API 6A ball valves. We used SS316 as per client request for making ball without any coating. But now in the line ball wash easily by sour gas flow. They need a document to show SS316 is not suitable for this pressure of ball valves. Any body have information and document about this point.
Thanks,
