Suitability of ASTM A216 Gr WCB for service

[Tatts]

Is there a decent site that will allow me to assess suitability of WCB for use with certain media in pipeline systems and valves?

ASTM STANDARD RELATED BOOK TO STEEL PIPING, TUBING,& FITTINGS WILL BE A GOOD REFERANCE TO YOU .

ASTM A216 : IT HAS THREE GRADE AS WCA,WCB&WCC ,IT COVERS CARBON STEEL CASTINGS FOR VALVES, FLANGES,FITTINGS FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE SERVICE .

Check Chemicl engineering Hand Book (Perry) this gives usability of various material in various media. WCB is a common CS material, if you could get hold of ASME Sec II D then you could get the allowable stresses at different temperatures for designing purpose. Also ANSI B 31.3 could provide you with necessary information.

If you do not have Chemical Engineering Hand Book give the application i'll try to look and post you.

Good Luck
