ASTM A106 gr C

[SnazyDragon]

I was given a chemical analysis report and asked to review. I'm finding that the Si value is higher than listed in the standard chemical requirements. Any comments on this? Is this something I should be concerned with??
TIA

From what I can see, your Si content is 0.23 and the 0.10 ASTM A106 Gr. C Si requirement is the minimum, not maximum.

Would that mean that my other values are below the minimums listed in ASTM?

 

[DGrayPPD]

No, the Si content is the only one that specifies minimum. All others besides Mn specify maximum, and your values fall under the maximum. Do you have a copy of ASTM A106? Keep in mind that I'm also looking at an older copy from 2011.

The chemistry is quite typical for A-106 C.
