API RP 6HT : 2018

Recommended Practice for the Repair and Remanufacture of Pipeline Valves

Standard Details

This recommended practice is intended to supplement the heat treatment and testing requirements found in the API 6A equipment specification and not to replace them altogether. Heat treatment is a critical process that must be appropriate and controlled in order to produce parts that comply with design requirements. The specified mechanical properties may not necessarily be required or achieved through the entire section thickness of the production part(s). These procedures are intended to provide the manufacturer and end user with a means of ensuring that the qualification test coupon (QTC) is more representative of the mechanical properties in a large cross section component than can be expected with a standard API equipment specification QTC. Furthermore, these procedures are intended to provide to optimize the heat treatment and heat treatment response of large cross section components, thereby insuring that the component has the required mechanical properties at the depth below th...
