Specification for ASTM A216 WCB

Specification for ASTM A216 WCB

Does anyone know where I can find details on this material?
We have plug valves in service that operate up to 15MPa with a temperature range of -10 to 55 deg C, class 900#.

RE: Specification for ASTM A216 WCB

Look in ASTM Standards, Volume 01.02. What info do you need?

Thank you for the info.

I am after the limits of the material, i.e. max and min operational temperatures and pressures. I understand the pressures will also be based on the thickness of the material.  

RE: Specification for ASTM A216 WCB

The p/t limits of this material are contained in ASME B16.34 and ASME B31.3. Temp. range -29 deg.C to 425 deg.C. For a class 900 the max. allowable pressure is 153.2 bar.g @ -29 deg.C to 38 deg.C; 150.2 bar.g @ 50 deg.C; 139.1 bar.g @ 100 deg.C. You can interpolate between these temps.
