Hi everybody!!!
I have a project to do but on initial specifications, the client wants that I supply an equipment (tip flare) but he (in his specifications) wants the tip flare in ASTM A-312 (that specification is for PIPE), but my problem is that in the calculus of tip flare, the calculus gives me 10" diameter. I have not found any USA company that can sell me STAINLESS STEEL WITH SEAM PIPE OF 10" DIAMETER SCHEDULE 20. So I´m thinking to do it in plate (ASTM A-240), and then rolled it and then weld it. But In initial specifications says that it must be ASTM A-312 (PIPE) and how I can not find any USA company that suppies ASTM A-312 TP-310 with seam of 10" diameter schedule 20, I`m afraid that the client rejects my proposal bis a bis the project. So I`m here to ask you if it is possible to demostrate or to show that ASTM A-240, after roll it and weld it and with a Xray test, it can fulfill as ASTM A-312??????? What will it be the procedure?
Please give me all your comments about it.
P.d. For Eng that do know what tip flare is, imagine that tip flare is simply a hollow cilinder (main body).And if you asked me about if there is high inside pressure, the maximum pressure is 2 psig....so it will not work under high pressures.
Thank you
Roland
