Yes, I understand. Actually, the engineering group has access to what they need. It's just when we need answers it takes a long drawn out process to get to the gist of the issues. Like this issue we've been talking about. You can talk to 3 of them and get at least 2 different answers.

LittleInch, I know what you mean and you are exactly right - It's kind of a strange thing. Even some of the engineers distance themselves from some of these kinds of issues -I guess because it can get so convaluted.
I'd like to have access to the offical ASME documentation for myself.

Wow, this is GREAT ! Thank you all for taking time to respond !
Since the previous comment from Pennpiper, I actually contacted a major flange manufacturer and asked if they made the 150 LB Flat Faced Blind Flanges. They do, but when I asked for a cut sheet or a catalog, they don't have any...
Thanks zdas04 and pennpiper for your replies. I guess you can see why I reached out to this forum to help us here at work with our friendly discussion ! Personally, I had the same thought as pennpiper, but found myself on the far end of the spectrum. Basically those who think of themselves as...
Hello All,
We're having a friendly discussion at work about blind flanges on applications that fall under ASME B16.5. We're not sure when Raised Face connections would not be proper as some hold that the standard is to use RF on FF Nozzles/equipment. If this is so, when are Blind Flanges with...
Thanks donf, interesting stuff. We have used ceramic lined pipe in some of our PAC injection designs . Lately we have substituted ceramic backed elbows to reduce costs.
Pennpiper,
Actually, yes that sounds exactly like what we do but this is another firm's scope - we just don't normally use that terminology. And yes, it's schedule 10. Thanks for your reply - I'm more comfortable with it now.
Greetings - I hope this is not too simple a question but it's something I haven't heard of before. What is "Conveying Line Pipe" and how is physically and functionally different from other "schedule" pipe, seamless, EFW. etc ?
