    Duplex and Intermetallics

    Hello all, Duplex and super duplex grades are prone for the forming of intermetallic phases that lower corrosion resistance and mechanical properties like impact strength. These phases grow in a temperature range between 950-600 degC during heat treatment and/or welding. After metal fabrication...

    API 661 para 9.2.1. (pwht)

    Dear All, As pressure equipment fabricator we designed a new type of header for air cooled coolers that contains almost no welds. Instead of welding plates together we have a design that consists our of a forged block. The only welding there is for the nozzles and in some cases an endplate. In...

    PWHT Holding Time

    Hello All, I have a question about the holding time for PWHT of unalloyed carbon steel like (S)A-516-70. In the past I once have seen a procedure in which the holding time was miscalculated. As per ASME VIII div 1 UCS-56 is stated that the holding time is one hour per inch of the used material...
