Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between seamless tubing and seamless pipe?

Seamless tubing is measured by OD (Outside Diameter) and wall thickness is specified in BWG (Birmingham Wire Gauge) or fractions of an inch. Seamless pipe is measured by NPS (Nominal Pipe Size) and wall thickness is specified by Schedule numbers (SCH 5S, 10S, 40S, 80S, 160, XXH). Tubing is typically used for instrumentation and precision applications, while pipe is used for process piping and fluid transport.

What grades of stainless steel are available?

Available grades include: TP304/TP304L (general purpose, corrosion resistant), TP316/TP316L (enhanced corrosion resistance for seawater and chemicals), TP321/TP347 (stabilized grades for high temperature up to 900°F), TP310S (high temperature to 1150°F), Duplex 2205 (double the yield strength of 316L with good corrosion resistance), and Super Duplex 2507 (higher strength and better corrosion resistance for harsh environments).

What ASTM standards apply to SS seamless tubes and pipes?

ASTM A213 covers seamless boiler, superheater, and heat exchanger tubes. ASTM A269 covers general corrosion-resistant and vacuum service tubing. ASTM A312 covers seamless and welded pipe for high temperature and general corrosion service. ASTM A511 covers seamless mechanical tubing used in demanding applications.

What is the temperature and pressure range?

Temperature range is -196°C (cryogenic) to +600°C depending on grade. Pressure ratings vary by size and wall thickness, with small high-pressure tubes rated up to 10000 PSI. TP321 and TP347 are recommended for high temperature applications up to 900°F (480°C). TP310S handles temperatures up to 1150°F (620°C).

What testing is performed on seamless tubes and pipes?

Standard testing includes: Hydrostatic testing (pressure test to verify integrity), Eddy Current testing (detects surface and near-surface defects), and Visual inspection. For pipe, additional hydrostatic pressure testing is standard. Material test certificates (MTC) EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 are provided with each shipment.
