roughness shall be measured by means of replica tape, in accordance with ISO 8503-5. Other,
proprietary testing techniques may be used, as agreed by the Principal. The surface roughness for
thermal spray coatings shall be between 75 µm and 110 µm, in accordance with ISO 8503-5.
Aluminium used as TSA coating shall be in accordance with ISO 209, Grade 1350 or Grade
1100.TSA coated surfaces shall not be in direct contact with carbon steel, e.g. TSA coated pipe and
steel support. A non-metallic layer, e.g. PTFE, or elastomer strip should be used to avoid direct
contact between a TSA coated surface and its steel counterpart. Testing, inspection and qualification
shall be carried out as per PTS 30.48.40.31.
The sealer shall have sufficiently low viscosity to penetrate into the pores and seal the surface of the
thermal spray coating. The dry-film thickness (DFT) of the sealer should not exceed 40 µm.
TSA and zinc/aluminium (85/15) alloy coatings may be sealed when used under atmospheric
conditions, e.g. to prevent fouling of the surface, or when a particular decorative finish, or safety
colors are required.
The following sealer materials shall be used:
Epoxy: to a maximum temperature of 120 °C;
Silicone: to a maximum temperature of 450 °C.
Before application of any subsequent coat of material, all damages from previous coats shall be
repaired. All loose paint shall be removed to a firm edge. All surface irregularities and contaminations
shall be removed. Hard, glossy surface may require abrading to obtain a suitable surface for painting.
Re-cleaning may differ depending on the type and extent of the defect or damage:
For defect with only aesthetical impact (runs, sags, etc ), corrective action shall be implemented
where visual aspect is important,
For defect or damage that leaves at least the primer coat on the metallic substrate, re-cleaning
shall include the removal of foreign matters (oil, grease, dust, debris, etc.) by solvent cleaning or
lightly brush blasted. The coating around the damaged area shall be chamfered by sanding to
ensure continuity of the patch coating. The full surface preparation and coating system shall then
be reapplied strictly in accordance with this specification (hand tool- or power tool-cleaning,
subject to COMPANY approval),
For defect or damage that leaves the metallic substrate uncoated, re-cleaning shall bring the
initial surface cleanliness and surface roughness back to the initial requirements either by blast-
cleaning or by an alternative method approved by COMPANY. The surface preparation for repair
coating shall be minimum St3 as per ISO 8501-1,
The re-cleaning shall carry over on to the secure surrounding coating for not less than 50 mm all
round and the edges shall be feathered (over a width of at least 70 mm).
After the surface cleaning the specified coating system or the required layers of the specified coating
shall be re-applied. Any additional coats shall blend in with the final coating on adjoining areas. Paint
Manufacturers shall be consulted if the existing coating requires abrading before over-coating to
obtain good bonding.
Regarding maximum allowable dry film thickness, the first acceptance criteria will be the maximum
nominal dry film thickness as specified in this specification. When the dry film thickness exceeds the
specified maximum requirements, the maximum allowable dry film thickness of the paint manufacturer
may be acceptable, on a case by case basis and when approved by Company.

1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this specification is to provide general guidelines for coating system of carbon steel
and low alloy steel stud bolts and nuts operating below 200°C. The procedure shall be used by all
PETRONAS Design Consultants, Purchasers, Fabricators, Hook Up and Commissioning (HUC)
Contractors, Skid Package Vendors and Manufacturers in designing, purchasing, manufacturing,
storage, handling and installing the stud bolts and nuts for all PETRONAS facilities.
2. SCOPE
This specification outlines the requirement for bolt and nut coating for onshore and offshore oil and
gas facilities including subsea applications. The guideline is established based on experience at
offshore facilities.
3. PROCEDURE
This section detailed out the requirement for coating system of stud bolts and nuts for systems
operating at temperature below 200°C as per Table 1 which consists of:
• Basecoat (First Coat) - provides the corrosion resistance
• PTFE Based Topcoat (Second Coat) - reduce friction when tightening and loosening the
bolting components which is not meant for primary corrosion protection.
For systems operating at temperature above 200°C, only basecoat is required unless otherwise
specified.
The specified coating systems are intended for use on carbon and low alloy steels or equivalent:
• Stud bolts of grades ASTM A193/ A193M and ASTM A 320/ A 320M
• Nuts of grade ASTM A194/ A 194M
• Washer of grade ASTM F 436/ F 436M
• U-bolts of grade A 307/ A 307M
Mechanical cleaning and/or chemical treatments shall be used to produce a satisfactory surface
for subsequent plating/ deposition and finish coating, i.e. free from soils, environmental matter,
drawing compounds, oil grease, discoloration oxides, scale and other foreign matter.
Materials used for cleaning shall have no damaging effects on the base metal.
age 5
Both specified surface preparation for zinc nickel plating and cermet basecoat shall comply with
standards in Table 2.
The coating system for stud bolts and nuts shall be as per Table 1. Equivalent or better coating
system may be considered subjected to the qualification test and PCSB approval. The detailed
requirements on the basecoat shall be as per Table 3:
Zinc Nickel • Zinc Nickel alloyed coating deposited from an alkaline, cyanide free, electrolyte
Plating shall have a composition of the coating to be in the range of 12-18% Nickel
balance being Zinc.
• The bolting materials coated with Zinc Nickel alloyed coating shall be
phosphate treated in accordance with ASTM D 2092, Method A (12-18 m)
• The phosphate treatment is to ensure basecoat is adherent to topcoat.
• The general plating process shall be as per below:
o Zinc Nickel Plating
o Visual Inspection
o Rinsing
o Phosphate conversion treatment1
o Rinsing and drying
o Inspection and testing
Note:
Chromate (instead of phosphate) conversion treatment is required for stud bolts
and nuts with only Zinc Nickel plating.
Cermet • Ceramic metal coating shall consist of one or more individual layer of product
combining pigments that include aluminium and/or metal oxide pigments in an
inorganic binder.
• The general coating process shall be as per below:
o Conventional spray
o Baking (oven cured)
o Inspection and testing
o Burnishing with clean alumina or soft mineral abrasives
o Conductivity test (upon recommendation by paint manufacturer)
Topcoat Details
PTFE Based • A PTFE based coating shall be applied as secondary coating corrosion barrier
Coating and to reduce torque-up friction during installation.
• The general coating process shall be as per below:
o Conventional spray
o Baking (oven cured)
o Inspection and testing
Basecoat and final coat inspection and testing shall be performed as per Table 6 and Table 7 prior
to conducting salt spray qualification performance test.
Salt spray qualification performance test as per Table 5 shall be performed on the stud bolts and
nuts by independent laboratory as per ASTM B117 for either following purposes:
a) To qualify new stud bolts and nuts coating applicator;
b) To assess the performance and qualify the new coating systems;
