API 6A718 Work Group on Addition of Nickel Base CRAs API SC6 Winter 2012 Meeting Paul Maxwell
Objective • Provide requirements for Age Hardened Nickel Base alloys used in the manufacture of API 6A or ISO 10423 pressure-containing and pressure-controlling components to assure they are not embrittled by the presence of an excessive level of deleterious phases and meet minimum metallurgical quality requirements. • These additional requirements include detailed process control requirements and detailed testing requirements.
Meetings • September 27, 2011 • November 29, 2011
To Be Done • Review of Chemistries, Heat Treat Procedures and Mechanical Properties • Decide Whether Mechanical Property Requirements Need to be Size Dependant • Develop an Appropriate Hardness Conversion Table • Develop Grain Size & Microstructure Requirements including Photomicrographs for Reference • Determine Whether Additional Testing will be Required for High Strength 718
