    High operating temperature of ASTM A 333 Gr. 6, aging (hardening) and loss of toughness/ductility?

    Thanks for the replies. I got my hands around a bunch of articles that I need to go through. We will see if something interesting comes up regarding ageing of the material. JackLeeKH3 Yeah, steels will lose strength with temperature and so the allowables will be smaller. I am more interested in...

    High operating temperature of ASTM A 333 Gr. 6, aging (hardening) and loss of toughness/ductility?

    This is a low temperature carbon steel used for applications down to -50 F as per ASME B 31.3. But what is the highest temperature in which this material can be safely used, in piping, especially considering ageing or aging, which can cause a loss in toughness/ductility? Is this material prone...
