this is fine. but most of the attack/failure we experience are not in the happening in the weld joint or haz but rather in areas where there is breakdown of insualtion. this is true not only pipng but also in api tanks constructed of cs and on the shell of a tema heat exhcnager.

may i add, that for low temp steam line coated with zinc rich epoxy as primer, we have also observed a signiifcant number of damage as a result of cui. Received on Thu Jun 28 02:29:00 2001
