Hi all,

There is an increasing trend in our neck of the woods to replace carbon steel pipework and valves with stainless steel. Mostly around evap cons and wall penitrations. You would have to be carefull around the presence of chlorides I guess???? Tower treatments???? I have read SCC is not an issue but will S/S work harden if exposed to vibration? Gas pulsations?

I would be interested in hearing others opinions on this matter and if it is common place elcewhere as this is not my area of expertise.

Cheers
