Wps p91 - Bhel

This document provides a welding procedure specification for groove welding of 9Cr 1 Mo 0.25 V (T91/P91) steel tubes and pipes up to 20mm thick using gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). The joint design uses backing for SMAW. The base metal is SA 213 T91 steel. Filler metals include E 90S-B9 for GTAW and E9018-B9 or E9015-B9 for SMAW. All positions are allowed. Preheating to 220°C and postweld heat treatment at 760±10°C for 2.5 minutes per millimeter of w
