Hello,
I have a questing regarding weld repair allowed by API 5L in Annex C, Clause C.4.3
C.4.3 The total length of repaired zone on each pipe weld shall be < 5% of total weld length for SAW and COW weld seams.
Submerged Arc Welded Helical (SAWH) pipe have inside and outside welds and...
Hello Everyone,
We are SAWH pipe manufacturer, we carryout repair welding of API 5L Gr. X-70 pipes with Electrode E-9018. Please let me know, can we use electrode E-8018 instead of E-9018 on API 5L Gr. X-70 pipes. if yes, is re-qualification required.
Product standard is silent about it...
Hi everyone,
I would really grateful if anyone can help me in writing the Management of Change procedure according to API Q1 or share with me the the same
Basically i am writing this first time and don't any any idea about MOC.

Good day guys,
Can anyone let me know, why the cold bending is preferred by the fabricators instead of hot bending? Even in the hot bending there is very little chance of cracking and tubes also get bend easily.

Hello everyone
I would like to know what is the difference between boiler tubes and super heater tubes, also let me know how much pressure and temperature these tubes can sustain.

Hello guys
I would like to ask that, what is the method of finding yield strength of the material tested on Universal Testing Machine (UTM). Due to some error our machine is not making the graph, so we have to do manual calculations for the yield strength.
Someone has advised us to calculate...
Duwe6, Thanks for your reply
It means we can expand the pipe OD up to a ratio of 5.0 followed by heat treatment, would it be ok?
Hoping for quick reply
Best regards
It is written in API 5L, 44th edition Page No. 21
8.9 Cold Sizing and Cold Expansion
8.9.1 Except as allowed by 8.9.2, the sizing ratio for cold sized pipe shall not be more than 0,015, unless
(a) the pipe is subsequently normalized or quenched and tempered, or
