    WCC Vs WCB

    Uploaded by

    SATHISHKUMAR R
    WCC and WCB castings are standard carbon steels used for pressure retaining components and structural parts in valves and equipment. WCC has slightly higher pressure-temperature ratings than WCB. Both have a usable temperature range of -20 to 800°F. They have similar mechanical properties with ultimate tensile strengths between 70-95 ksi, minimum yield strengths of 40 ksi, and minimum elongation and reduction in area of 22% and 35% respectively.

    WCC Castings
    ASME SA216 Grade WCC is the "standard" cast carbon steel for valves, float cages and other
    pressure retaining castings, as well as for steel structural parts such as yokes. It is readily
    welded, without PWHT in thinner sections. (See Welding and Heat Treatment). It has a usable
    service temperature range of -20 to 800°F (-29 to 427°C).

    WCB Castings
    ASME SA216 Grade WCB was the "standard" cast carbon steel until 1988 when Fisher began
    using WCC for all new designs. The chemistry of WCB overlaps the chemistry for WCC, but WCB
    has slightly lower pressure-temperature ratings than WCC. The service temperature range for
    WCB is -20 to 800°F (-29 to 427°C).
