pressure-tight connection, between the end fittings and the feeder pipes, which form a part of the
Primary Heat Transport System.
The screws are to comply with the pertinent sections of the ASME Code as defined herein.
a) ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section II,
b) ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III,
c) ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section V.
Areas of control will likely include, but not be limited to:
a) Material quality and control,
b) Nondestructive Examination (NDE),
c) Affidavits of manufacture.

of temperature during forging. Threads shall be cold-formed by rolling.
The heat treatment to develop mechanical properties shall be in accordance with the material
specification above.
6.3 Suppliers Manufacturing Procedures
The methods and procedures for manufacture and testing are the responsibility of the Supplier
and shall be submitted to the Purchaser for acceptance.
Before start of manufacture, a Manufacturing Inspection and Test Plan (MITP) covering receipt
of material through to shipment of finished parts shall be submitted and accepted by the
Purchaser. The MITP shall cross-reference the detailed process and inspection procedures.
