NACE standards like MR0103 (Materials Resistant to Sulfide Stress Cracking in Corrosive Petroleum Refining Environments), MR0175 (Materials for use in H2S containing environments) does specify material requirements and they have to be followed only when client specify that the material to be used shall comply applicable NACE Standards.
Client / end user has to consider whether he wants to follow and get the material as per NACE or not. And yes NACE standards does specifically mention maximum hardness limits for all P.Nos. material to be used under certain corrosive service conditions.
