We are dealing with a road tanker for compressed gas and the documentation indicates it was manufcatured in Texas in 1966. The material used was steel noted as "Case 1298 FBX". I understand that the FBX is firebox steel but does anyone know what the material properties are (tensile and chemical)? Some fatigue cracks have been identified and a decision has to be made whether to scrap or repair.
