Cold-drawn and stress-relieved Type 347 heavy-wall tubing flows plastically at service temperatures (1050-1100 F) when subjected to a stress below the 10,000-hr rupture strength. Precipitation induced by the strain and temperature conditions causes an extended period of abnormally high creep resistance. The duration of this period increases with decreasing stress and is longer for compression than for tension. The creep and rupture strengths for service duration over 10,000 hr are poorer than those reported for Type 347 annealed bar stock. |
