cosa significa "to butter the ends of pipe work"?

In some instances, it may be possible to butter the ends of grade 91 pipe work with a weld metal of higher creep strength and then carry out a PWHT, as noted by Coleman and Hainsworth.104 If the welding is carried out in a fabrication shop, it may even be possible to normalise the whole component.
