This functionality is achieved by a specific combination of physical geometry and material properties of the steel.

  • Page 19: Flow Line Inspection

    Revision: Flow Line Inspection Weir Oil & Gas strongly recommends performing a flow line inspection to verify that each clamp has been assembled prior to pressurizing the line. This will require physically inspecting the underside of each clamp to verify that bolt is within approximately 1/4" of the opening in the bottom threaded clamp. This action will provide additional verification that any clamps that may have been loosened to allow for adjustment during the installation process were properly re-tightened.
