    Ring/Spacer minimum thickness

    What is the difference between Hydrojetting and Hydromilling?

    Hydrojetting: This is primarily used for cleaning surfaces, such as removing dirt, debris, or scale from pipes, tanks, or surfaces. It relies on high-pressure water jets to clean and scour surfaces. Hydromilling: This is used for cutting or removing materials, particularly concrete or asphalt...

    We are upgrading our condensate piping from CS to SS. The condensate piping is stainless steel that is being insulated. Do we need to paint the SS piping to address Chloride stress corrosion cracking concerns? The condensate piping will be above the critical stress corrosion cracking temperature...
