What is Post Forming Heat Treatment Insights about?

The document discusses whether heat treatment is required for hot formed pressure vessel heads according to code UCS-79. It states that the code only requires heat treatment for cold formed parts with excessive elongation, not for hot formed parts. Most manufacturers do hot forming to avoid this requirement. The vendor insists on performing a post-forming heat treatment for the heads even though the fiber elongation is only 3% and cracks are unlikely, in order to prevent knuckle cracks.
