Explosive Cladding requirements
Explosive Cladding requirements
(OP)
Hi All,
I would like to ask information about explosive cladding.
Could someone please advise me if a vendor is going to use explosive cladded plates, what important information they have to provide in order for use to allow.
Also, is there any ASTM standards that we can request the vendor to follow in order to ensure sound materials are use.
Regards,
Darren

RE: Explosive Cladding requirements
The vendor should state what testing is applied. The vendor should also state that the clad item meets a specification such as SA-263, SA-264, or SA-265 as applicable.
See also Sec VIII, Div 1, Part UCL.

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand
RE: Explosive Cladding requirements
Are you taking credit for the clad as part of the thickness for pressure rating?
They should be able to report the thickness of base and of the clad, the composition of both, the strength of both (independently) and some test of bond strength.
