Low Temperature Impact Properties
Low-temperature
impact toughness is an important requirement of ISO 9330-5.
- Charpy V-notch impact testing is
specified.
- Testing is carried out at
temperatures appropriate to the individual grade.
- Longitudinal impact specimens are
used where specified.
- Transverse testing may be
applicable according to the standard and order requirements.
- Minimum impact-energy requirements
depend on grade and test temperature.
- Nickel-alloyed grades are intended
for particularly demanding low-temperature service.
The exact
impact temperature and energy requirements should be confirmed against the
ordered grade, dimensions and test orientation.
Manufacturing Process
ISO
9330-5 tubes are manufactured by submerged arc welding.
Typical
manufacturing steps include:
- Steelmaking with controlled
chemical composition.
- Production of flat-rolled steel
feedstock.
- Forming of the flat product into
tubular shape.
- Submerged arc welding.
- Internal and external welding runs.
- Heat treatment over the full tube
length.
- Sizing and finishing.
- Mechanical and non-destructive
testing.
- Cutting to specified lengths.
- Final inspection.
The
standard requires the steels to be fully killed. Tubes may be longitudinally or
helically welded, and the submerged arc process requires at least one internal
and one external welding run.
Manufacturing Conditions
Depending
on the ordered grade and requirements, tubes may be supplied as:
- Submerged arc-welded tubes.
- Longitudinally welded tubes.
- Helically welded tubes.
- Hot-finished tubes.
- Cold-finished tubes.
- Normalized tubes.
- Normalized and tempered tubes.
- Quenched and tempered tubes.
The tubes
are supplied heat-treated over their full length according to the applicable
grade requirements.
Heat Treatment
ISO
9330-5 specifies heat-treatment conditions according to the type of steel.
Typical
conditions include:
- Normalizing (N).
- Normalizing and tempering.
- Quenching and tempering (Q + T).
Examples
of specified conditions include normalizing for PL 21, PL 23 and PL 26, while
PL 25 is supplied in the quenched-and-tempered condition.
Dimensions and Tolerances
The
standard provides requirements for tube dimensions, masses and tolerances.
- Tube dimensions are related to the
applicable dimensional standards.
- Outside diameter and wall thickness
are controlled according to the specified tolerances.
- Length requirements are agreed
according to the order.
- Tubes can be supplied in standard
or specified lengths.
- Dimensional inspection is carried
out as part of final product verification.
ISO
9330-5 references ISO 4200 for applicable tube dimensions and includes specific
dimensional, mass and tolerance requirements in its technical delivery
conditions.
Surface Condition
The tubes
are supplied with suitable internal and external surface conditions.
- Surfaces should permit effective
visual and dimensional inspection.
- Surface imperfections are
controlled so that the required wall thickness remains within
specification.
- Defects may be removed by suitable
dressing where permitted.
- The finished surface must remain
compliant after any permitted dressing operation.
- Weld seams are subject to
applicable inspection requirements.
