6.1 The visual inspection guidelines given below are not intended to replace Code or specification
requirements, i.e. Table A341.3.2 of ASME B31.3 or Annex IX of AWS G1.10M. They are intended to

6.2 Manufacturer Recommendations for visual inspection shall also be used to verify butt fusion joints.

6.3 The gap (A) between the two single beads, or weld undercut, must not be below the fusion surface
throughout the entire circumference of the butt joint.

6.4 The displacement (V) between the fused ends must not exceed 10% of the pipe/fitting minimum wall
thickness or 1/16” (1.5 mm); whichever is less.

6.5 The outer bead must be “rolled back” fully against the wall of the pipe/fitting.
