- Max. CE on product = 0.42% for fittings

- Max. C on product = 0.20%
The manufacturer shall ensure on basis of regular production check that the carbon equivalent (CE) by
ladle analysis doesnt exceed 0.45% where:
CE = C + Mn/6 + (Cr + Mo +V)/5 + (Cu + Ni)/15
5.4 In order to appreciate the effects on the mechanical characteristics of these steel items, the
basic product used for manufacture will be checked after any hot forming operation and any stress
relieving heat treatment after cold forming.
5.5 The Vendor shall submit the location drawing of the mechanical test samples to Consultant
for check.
5.6 The Vendor shall check with the steel maker that the steel grade is compatible with heat
treatment or hot forming.
6- Manufacture and Dimensions
6.1 The manufacturing process shall be according to the following:
Up to and including NPS 18, the fittings shall be seamless.
For NPS 20 and higher, fittings shall be welded double seam and 100% RT.
The use of BW fittings made from welded by electric resistance (ERW) pipes is prohibited for
process piping classes.
6.2 The socket welding (SW) or thread (NPT) fittings such as 45and 90elbows, tees,
couplings, caps, reducing couplings, etc. shall be formed from forged products. These fittings shall
conform to the ASME B16.11 standard for dimensions, machining and pressure rating classes.
6.3 The butt welding fittings (BW) such as 45 and 90 elbows, equal tees, reducing tees,
concentric & eccentric reducers and caps shall be heat formed. Their dimensions shall conform to the
ASME B16.9 or MSS-SP-75 standards and the ends shall be beveled according to the ASME B 16.25 or
