Heat Treatment for Fittings• Heat treatment as per applicable ASTM
standard• Hot finished Fittings
−Temp. remain within heat treatment temperature till final size and thickness achieved
−No heat treatment required• Cold finished Fittings
−Fittings are clod drawn−heat treatment required
3
Heat Treatment for Fittings•Normalizing•Quenching•Tempering•Solution Annealing •Stress reliving •Combination of above
4
Hydrostatic Test• Not required unless
specifically requested by purchaser
• Code mandate that fittings shall be able to withstand under pressure required by applicable Piping Code
5
Non Destructive testing• Ultrasonic • Radiography (Only for Weld) • Magnetic particle test• Liquid penetrant test• Positive Material Identification
6
Distractive Testing• Proof test• Tensile test• Impact test / Charpy V-Notch Test• Hardness test
7
Metallurgical Test• Micro Analysis or Chemical Analysis of
−Raw material−Product−Weld
• Macro Analysis or Grain size −Product−Weld
8
Visual Inspection• Check for any surface defect (mechanical
marks, dents) and overall product quality• Check weld for welding defect such as
porosity, undercuts etc• Acceptance as per applicable standard
9
Dimension Standard• Wrought Product (WP)
−ASME B16.9 Factory-made Wrought Butt-welding Fittings NPS 1⁄₂ through NPS 48
−B16.28 Wrought Steel Butt-Welding Short Radius Elbows and Returns NPS 1⁄₂ through NPS 24
• Forged Product−ASME B16.11 Forged Steel Fittings, Socket Welding and Threaded
10
Dimension inspection • Following to be confirm during inspection
−Diameter−Length−Thickness−Straightness−Degree
11
Marking • Following shall be marked on Fitting
−Manufacturer logo−ASTM material code−Material Grade−Size−Thickness (Schedule No)−Heat No−Compliance - for standard fittings –WP, for Special fittings S58,S8,SPLD etc.

Marking• Marking can be by paint or by Hard
punching• For stainless steel stenciling can be used• For carbon steel no hard punching below 6
mm thickness• For stainless steel no hard punching below
12 mm thickness
