    Weld repair to pitting on API 5L X65 pipe flange

    ...on weld fabricated ones. In your description this is not an acceptable weld repair, but should be considered a weld overlay to recharge the thickness of the flange face. * Finding a solution is great * Knowing how to implement it is fantastic * Believing it is the only one and best is naive ?

    Charpy impact value for welded super duplex stainless steel

    I wouldn't worry about weld metal because weld consumables are over alloyed and result in enhanced properties. However the HAZ being a mix of both and will be weaker. * Finding a solution is great * Knowing how to implement it is fantastic * Believing it is the only one and best is naive ?
