Coarse series: for bolt diameters less than or equal to 1 8 threads series: for bolt diameters equal to or greater than 1 Stud bolts shall be threaded along their entire length. The machining and surface condition tolerances applicable to the various threading shall conform to the following classes:
10.
Class 2B of standard ASME B1.1 for nuts Unless otherwise specified, hydraulic bolt tensioning shall be applied as given in the table below. For such instances, the bolt lengths specified in the Inquiry / Purchase Requisition includes additional length (minimum one bolt diameter) and the bolts shall be supplied with 3 nuts. ASME RATING SERVICE CLASSES All 150# to 900# All 1500# and above BOLT DIAMETER 2 1 1/2
11.
Bolting items shall be supplied with a suitable rust preventive (e.g. Shell Ensis Fluid or equal). Negative tolerance is not permitted on the length of the bolting. In addition to the marking requirements of the relevant product codes and standards, the stock code number, purchase order number and purchase order item number shall be printed on each box or package.
5. The flat ring gaskets shall be made of resilient or pliable materials such as rubber, Aramid fibre, PTFE, reinforced PTFE, graphite suitably reinforced, mica, etc. 6. The flat ring gaskets shall not be used for RTJ type flanges, or male/female type flanges, or tongue and groove type flanges. 7. Spiral wound gaskets shall be provided with inner and outer rings in compliance with ASME B16.20. 8. The materials of the spiral wound gasket components e.g. filler, windings, outer and inner rings, shall be as specified in the Material Requisition. The windings and the inner rings shall always be made from type 316 stainless steel or higher grade. 9. Where gaskets components made from austenitic stainless steel to ASTM A240 Gr 316L are specified, the product shall be in a solution annealed condition, before assembly. 10. 11. Flange gasket contact surface finish shall be in accordance with ASME B16.5. The ring type gaskets shall have a maximum Brinell hardness as specified below: Gasket Material Maximum Hardness (HB) Soft Iron Alloy Steel 18/8 Stainless Steel Alloy 625 Alloy 825 6% Mo 12. 13. 90 130 135 180 160 160
Graphite based gaskets or where this material is used for filler material in spiral wound designs shall be suitable for temperatures up to 400 C. In addition to the marking requirements of the relevant product codes and standards, the stock code number, Purchase Order number and Purchase Order item number shall be marked on each package.
14.
All Gaskets specified for sour service shall meet the requirements of NACE MR0175/ ISO 15156 latest edition.
15.
All spiral wound gaskets in class 150 shall be of low density (low stress) type which are designed to seat at lower bolt loads.
3mm thick flat ring insulating gasket to ASME B16.21, material shall be Neoprene reinforced Phenolic/manufacturers standard material. Full length insulating sleeves (1 sleeve per bolt); material shall be Polyethelene/Phenolic/Mylar/manufacturers standard material. Insulating washers 3mm thick (2 washers per bolt), material shall be Reinforced Phenolic material Steel back-up washers 3mm thick (2 washers per bolt). of high insulating quality that should, in addition to protecting flanges from corrosion, meet the pressure/temperature requirements of the system.
2. Insulating gasket kit (including bolt sleeves and washers) material should be
3. The bore of the insulating gasket should be equal to the pipe bore. This will prevent any service material from accumulating in the annular space between the bore of the gasket and the bore of the pipe thus preventing formation of electrical bridge. 4. Insulating gasket should be suitable for the intended flange class, the maximum pressure and temperature conditions of system and service fluid.
4. Fasteners and gaskets shall be tested in Vendors works and test certificates shall be provided as per the Supplier Data Requirement List (SDRL). 5. Vendor shall submit the certificate of conformity of the material duly certified by Inspector. Type approval testing certificates for gaskets, where required shall be submitted. In this certificate the manufacturer shall confirm that the supplied product has passed type approval testing in accordance with requirements of relevant standards. 6. Inspection shall be performed as per Vendor Quality Requirement form attached with the Inquiry / Purchase Requisition. 7. Fasteners which are specified as for low temperature service shall be impact tested as specified in the Material Requisition. 8. Positive Material Identification (PMI) shall be conducted for all SS / DSS / CRA alloy fasteners and gaskets in accordance with the PMI standards/specifications applicable to the project.
or other surface imperfections e.g. porosity, voids, inclusions or other defects which could impair satisfactory performance. 3. Bolting items shall be supplied with suitable rust preventive. 4. Fasteners and gaskets shall be packed in such a manner so as to avoid damage or atmospheric corrosion to inside or outside surfaces or parts, during storage or while in transit. All bolting shall be supplied assembled with nuts.
