CUI

Corrosion Under Insulation

Civil & Structural

Corrosion proceeding unseen beneath insulation, where water is held against warm steel. Worst between roughly 50 and 150 °C, so the hottest lines are not always the most vulnerable. Causes more unplanned shutdowns than any other single mechanism on an ageing plant.
