Compliance with NACE MR0175

NACE MR0175 is a standard developed by the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) that specifies the requirements for metallic materials used in environments containing hydrogen sulfide (H2S). The standard aims to ensure the resistance of materials to sulfide stress cracking, a form of hydrogen embrittlement. Compliance with NACE MR0175 means that the 90° socket weld elbows ordered by the Singapore customer are capable of withstanding the corrosive conditions often encountered in the oil and gas industry, particularly in sour service applications.
