Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries —

Materials for use in H2S-containing environments in oil and
gas production — ƒ”–ʹǣ Cracking-resistant carbon and low-
alloy steels, and the use of cast irons

WARNING — Carbon and low-alloy steels and cast irons selected using this part of ANSI/NACE
MR0175/ISO 15156 are resistant to cracking in defined ʹ-containing environments in oil and gas
production but not necessarily immune to cracking under all service conditions. It is the equipment
user's responsibility to select the carbon and low-alloy steels and cast irons suitable for the intended
service.
