Quality inspection method for A335 P11 alloy steel pipe

1.A335 P11 alloy steel pipe chemical composition analysis: chemical analysis, instrumental analysis (infrared C-S instrument, direct reading spectrometer, zcP, etc.).

① infrared C-S instrument: analysis of ferroalloy, steelmaking raw materials, steel in the C, S elements.

② direct reading spectrometer: C, Si, Mn, P, S, Cr, Mo, Ni, Cn, A1, W, V, Ti, B, Nb, As, Sn, Sb, Pb, Bi

③ N-0 instrument: gas content analysis N, O


2.A335 P11 alloy steel pipe geometry and shape inspection:

①A335 P11 alloy steel pipe wall thickness check: micrometer, ultrasonic thickness gauge, both ends of not less than 8 points and recorded.

②A335 P11 alloy steel pipe diameter, ovalness check: card gauge, vernier caliper, ring gauge, measured the maximum point, the smallest point.

③A335 P11 alloy steel pipe length inspection: steel tape, artificial, automatic length measurement.

④A335 P11 alloy steel pipe bending check: ruler, level (1m), feeler, thin line per meter curvature, full length of bending.

⑤A335 P11 alloy steel pipe end groove angle and blunt edge check: angle, card board.


3.A335 P11 alloy steel pipe surface quality inspection: 100%

① artificial eye inspection: lighting conditions, standards, experience, logo, steel tube rotation.

② non-destructive testing inspection:

A. Ultrasonic testing UT:

It is sensitive to the surface and internal crack defects of A335 P11 alloy steel pipe.

Standard: ASTM-A335

B. Eddy current testing ET: (electromagnetic induction)

Mainly sensitive to point-like (hole-shaped) defects. Standard: ASTM-A335

C. Magnetic powder MT and magnetic flux leakage detection:

Magnetic flaw detection, suitable for a335 p11 alloy steel pipe surface and near surface defects detection.

Standard: ASTM-A335

D. Electromagnetic ultrasonic testing:

Do not need coupling medium, can be applied to high temperature high speed, coarse A335 P11 alloy steel pipe surface detection.

E. Penetration test:

Fluorescence, coloring, detection of A335 P11 alloy steel pipe surface defects.
