Old AL40

[m.kieks]

So I have an AL40 made out of the notorious 6351 alloy, and I was wondering what I should do with it? It passed hydro/vis/VE in 2013, it's been sitting out of vis for awhile and my local vis guy won't do it because he doesn't have any of the Visual Eddy equipment. So what do I do with it? I'd hate to sell it to somebody that doesn't know anything about the bad alloy and I'd hate to condemn what might be a usable tank to somebody, any advice is appreciated.

you are pretty much SOL unless you make it into a lamp or something. If it's out of vip and you can't get a guy to vip it, it isn't particularly useful...

Find a place that does do eddy inspections...

The alloy isn't a condemnation by itself, if it inspects okay.

not worth the expense of getting a Visual Eddy test every year prior to visual inspection, you are talking almost $40 per year..
