Overview
A refinery turnaround project required A193 B8T stabilised stainless steel stud bolts for heat exchanger service. The B8T grade offers superior resistance to sensitisation and intergranular corrosion in elevated temperature service.
Challenge
B8T is a less common grade requiring stabilised 321 stainless steel. Sourcing certified material with full PMI verification and meeting the turnaround schedule required careful supplier coordination.
Solution
EMG sourced B8T material from our approved European mills and coordinated manufacture with PMI testing at point of production. The complete stud and nut package was delivered with comprehensive certification.
Results
- Full B8T material certification verified
- PMI testing confirmed stabilised grade
- Delivery completed ahead of turnaround
- Zero punch list items at installation
Compliance & Documentation
EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Reports with stabilising element verification. PMI testing certificates for all pieces. ASME B16.5 dimensional compliance.
