API 571 Pass Rate

Over 95% of our online training students pass the API 571 Corrosion and Materials Exam. Our online training material is designed to maximize your exam prep efficiency and help you pass the test on the first try.

Overview of the API 571 Exam Prep Course Material

The specialized API 571 Corrosion and Materials Certification is for engineers, inspectors, and industry professional that want a certification that demonstrates a knowledge of damage mechanisms seen in the refining, petrochemical, pulp, and paper industries. This knowledge of damage mechanisms and proper identification is step one in maintaining safe and reliable equipment. Quality assurance inspectors need to be well versed in the API 571 in order to apply to API 510, API 570, API 653, API 580, API 581, and API 579 codes. An understanding of damage mechanisms is necessary when evaluating the remaining life of equipment. The damage mechanisms covered in the API 571 course material are common to several industries including pulp and paper, refining and petrochemical, and fossil utility. The Atlas API 571 online training course will provide you with the necessary knowledge to pass the exam the first time. Below are some of the damage mechanisms covered:

• Sulfide stress corrosion cracking

• Reheat cracking

• Polythionic acid stress corrosion cracking

• Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)

• Soil corrosion

• Sulfuric acid corrosion

• Wet H2S cracking

• Graphitic corrosion

• Mechanical fatigue

• Phosphoric acid corrosion

• Caustic corrosion

• Dissimilar metal weld (DMW) cracking

• CO2 corrosion

• Brittle fracture

• Chloride stress corrosion cracking

Included In Our API 571 Online Course:

• Over 390 Practice questions

• 30 hours of online prep

• Timed practice exams

QUALIFICATIONS

If you hold a current API 510, 570, or 653 certification, you automatically qualify to take the API 571 Corrosion and Materials certification exam.

If you do not hold a current API 510, 570 or 653 certification, then qualification is based on a combination of your level of education and industry experience acquired within the last 10 years.

Prior to submitting an application, please use the table below to determine if you qualify to take the API 571 exam. The minimum experience required MUST be documented on your application.

• The certification term for API 571 Corrosion and Materials is three years.

• At this time, employment verification is not required to recertify.

• You may apply for recertification 90 days prior to the certification expiration date. Apply online in the ICP Portal.

• API also allows a 90-day grace period for submitting a recertification application. Late fees will apply.

• If an application is not submitted by the end of the 90-day grace period, the certification will expire. A new application and fees must be submitted, and the candidate must pass a full examination in order to be recertified.

• Circumstances such as heavy work schedule or work in other countries or remote areas do not relieve the inspector/examiner of the responsibility to file a timely renewal application.
