Body Material for Valve

01/11/2010 7:27 AM

The type of material for body suggested by client is of ASTM Gr 216 WCB

But the vendor has given the material as BS 3100 Gr A4

Whether both are equivalent. Or else can u give the mechanical properties of thes two materials.

hi,

probably below link may help you. chemical and mechanical properties are given here. according to this, BS3100 gr A4 is equivalent to ASTM A148. Both ASTM a148 and A216 are casting standards for CS.
