STANDARDIZED CORROSION RATES (CR)

CARBON STEEL
If no corrosion detected after about 10 years:
Assume detection limit of 0.5 mm, corrosion rate must be lower
than 0.05 mm/yr
Use this value as worst case CR until better information is
available
STAINLESS STEEL
If no corrosion detected after about 10 years
Assume detection limit of 0.1 mm, corrosion rate must be lower
than 0.01 mm/yr (after VT) or 0.03 mm/yr (if UT, good quality)
Use this value as worst case CR until better information is
available
