    Pipe rated at 5000psi for pressure vessel

    I am designing a pressure vessel with a 5000psi MAWP. I an trying to put in a couple of 2NPS pipes init. I am currently using SA-106B/C pipe but am falling just shy of the 5000psi pressure. Is there another pipe spec that I can use that is good for ASME?

    Quick Opening Closure for 5000psi vessel

    We are designing a vertical pressure vessel and are in need of a quick opening closure. This will act like a top removeable head. The vessel has a design pressure of 5000psi. Does anybosy know of a company that manufactures closures at this pressure? The closest that I've found is 4500psi.

    SA-36 Temperature / Yield

    Thanks all. Is there a material recommended which can withstand that kind of temperature?

    SA-36 Temperature / Yield

    I am trying to locate (thus far unsuccessfully) data that states that A-36 material is good for up to 1300 degrees. This is not in a pressure environment; it is for an exhaust vent. So far everything that I've come across says that it is only good for 750 - 850 F before creep kicks in. If that...
