OTHER PIPE
SPECIFICATIONS |
|
API
5LX |
Covers high-test line
pipe with greater tensile and bursting strengths than pipe made to API 5L.
Seamless or welded, sizes 6-5/8 inch OD - 36 inch, Grades X-42, X-46,
and
X-52. Numerical designation in grade indicates minimum yield, thus
X-42=42,000 lbs. min. yield steel, etc. OD, weight and wall tolerances,
tensile and flattening tests and marking requirements are same as outlined
in API 5L. |
| |
|
ASTM
A134 |
| Covers
electric-fusion (arc)-welded straight seam or spiral seam steel plate pipe
16 inch and over (ID or OD as specified by customer), with walls up to 3/4
inch inclusive. Pipe intended for conveying liquid, gas, or
vapor. |
| |
|
ASTM
A135 |
| Covers two grades (A
and B) of electric-resistance-welded pipe, 30 inch and under, intended for
conveying liquid, gas, or vapor. Only grade A is adapted for flanging and
bending. Purpose for which pipe is intended should be stated in the
order. |
| |
|
ASTM
A139 |
| Covers two grades (A
and B) of electric-fusion (arc)-welded straight-seam or spiral-seam pipe,
4 inch and over, wall thicknesses up to 5/8 inch inclusive. Pipe intended
for conveying liquid, gas, or vapor. |
| |
|
ASTM
A155 |
| Covers
electric-fusion-welded pipe for high-temperature, high-pressure service.
Generally in sizes 16 inch OD and larger. Pipe is suitable for bending,
flanging (vanstoning), and similar forming operations. Several grades of
carbon steel and alloy steel plates are covered. |
| |
|
ASTM
A252 |
| Covers three grades
(physical properties) of welded and seamless black pipe piles of
cylindrical shape either as permanent load-carrying members or shells to
form cast-in-place concrete piles. Not intended to apply to pipe for
general structural purposes. Sizes 8-5/8 inch OD through 24 inch
OD. |
| |
|
ASTM
A312 |
| Covers ten grades
(designated as TP 304, TP 304L, TP 316, TP 347, etc.) of seamless and
welded stainless steel pipe intended for high-temperature and general
corrosive service. |
| |
|
ASTM
A333 |
| Covers seamless and
welded carbon and alloy steel pipe for low-temperature service. (Special
product note — Yoloy pipe can be certified to meet the requirements of
A333, Grade O, for service down to minus 50 degrees F.) |
| |
|
ASTM
A335 |
| Covers fourteen
grades, designated as P-11 (1-1/4 percent chrome, 1/2 percent moly) P-12
(1 percent chrome, 1/2 percent moly) P-5 (4-6 percent chrome, 1/2 percent
moly) etc., of intermediate alloy seamless steel pipe intended for
high-temperature service and suitable for bending, flanging (vanstoning),
and similar forming operations. |
