Industry Application

High-Pressure Piping NDT Inspection in Boksburg

Comprehensive weld integrity testing, corrosion mapping, and wall thickness monitoring for piping systems across Gauteng. ASME B31.3 compliant.

Protecting Gauteng's Industrial Arteries

High-pressure piping systems are the arteries of industrial plants, transporting volatile chemicals, high-temperature steam, hydrocarbons, and compressed gases. A failure in these lines can lead to devastating environmental, safety, and financial consequences.

NDT for New and Existing Piping

FlawTech delivers comprehensive Non-Destructive Testing NDT for both newly fabricated piping spools and aging pipeline infrastructure:

Radiography and Ultrasonic Testing for full penetration butt weld verification
Dye Penetrant Testing for socket and fillet weld surface inspection
Hydrostatic test support and documentation
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing for corrosion mapping at elbows, T-junctions, and reducers
Remaining life calculations based on measured corrosion rates
Condition assessment reports for API 570 compliance

Applicable Standards

ASME B31.3 — Process Piping
API 570 — Piping Inspection Code
API 1104 — Welding of Pipelines

Frequently Asked Questions

Can piping be inspected while the plant is running?

External thickness testing and surface inspections can be performed on active piping. Internal and radiographic inspections typically require the line to be isolated.

What areas of piping are most susceptible to corrosion?

Elbows, T-junctions, reducers, and dead legs are the highest-risk areas due to flow turbulence and accelerated erosion. We prioritize these locations in our inspection programs.
