    Uploaded by

    Socrates Morales
    This document provides specifications for steel castings of grades WCA, WCB, and WCC that are suitable for fusion welding for high-temperature service. It specifies requirements for chemical composition, tensile properties, heat treatment, quality inspection, and repair by welding. Castings must meet chemical composition limits for carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and other elements as defined in Table 1. They must also meet minimum tensile property requirements according to grade as defined in Table 2. Quality is assessed through visual and other nondestructive inspections, and repairs must be done according to qualified welding procedures.
