Leave us a message​

Description

ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 steel pipe is a type of stainless steel pipe manufactured according to ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 standard. This standard applies to seamless or welded steel pipes used in high temperature and corrosive environment applications.

Applications

Steel Pipe ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 is commonly used in industries such as:

  • Chemical industry
  • Oil and gas industry
  • Food and beverage industry
  • Pulp and paper industry
  • Applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance.

Standards

ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 covers the technical and material requirements for stainless steel pipe, including:

  • Dimensions and tolerances
  • Mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation, hardness)
  • Chemical properties (content of alloying elements such as Cr, Ni, Mo, C)
  • Inspection and testing procedures (non-destructive testing, pressure testing, dimensional testing)
  • Regulations on packaging, labeling and transportation.

Pressure

  • Pipe types : Can include seamless and welded pipes.
  • Working Pressure : Depending on the size and thickness of the pipe, working pressure can range from several hundred to thousands of psi.

Material

Steel Pipe ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 is made from stainless steels such as:

  • Ferritic stainless steel : 409, 430, 439, 444
  • Martensitic stainless steel : 403, 410, 416, 420
  • Austenitic stainless steels : 304, 316 (although less common in this standard)

ASTM A 268/A 268M-03 provides detailed specifications to ensure that steel pipe meets performance and strength requirements for various industrial applications.
