    Compound Cylinder

    Assuming that there is no leakage at the ends and sealing is perfect. There is no scope of epoxy or any other filler to creep out, In that case I feel there should not be any problem.

    Compound Cylinder

    I studied the applicable code ASME Sec viii, Div 2 As per this code, the wall thickness required is 0.8”, whereas my outer pipe is 1.125” thick. Please allow me to ask another question: For the inner stainless steel pipe with a thickness of 0.125”, the bursting pressure is 4,000 psi. If I...

    Compound Cylinder

    The cylinder will be under constant pressure for approx 3 hours, then to atmospheric pressure for 30 minutes and then back to 6,000 psi. The bore or outer dia need not be machined, so making one piece from 316 was the cost consideration and availability of standard hollow bar, tube or pipe...

    Compound Cylinder

    I am constructing a compound cylinder to withstand an internal pressure of 6,000 psi. The construction is from two pipes Inner pipe material seamless Stainless Steel 316 ID = 4.00” OD = 4.25” Wall thickness = 0.125” Outer pipe material seamless Steel 1018 ID = 4.375” OD = 6.625” Wall thickness =...

    Hardening AISI 1050 Steel

    Thanks for the quench suggestion. Regarding the carburizing, I am informed that for this product it is important that the Carbon potential on the surface should be raised to minimum 0.8% before hardening. What is the transformation taking place? I do not know about it, but like to have some...
