ASTM A213 T91 Seamless alloy tube

ASTM A213 T91 Standard covers seamless ferritic and austenitic steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes.
Grades containing the letter H in their designation have requirements different from those of similar grades not containing the letter H.

Notes for Bend Test:

• For pipe whose diameter exceeds NPS 25 and whose diameter to wall thickness ratio is 7.0 or less shall be subjected to the bend test instead of the flattening test.
• Other pipe whose diameter equals or exceeds NPS 10 may be given the bend test in place of the flattening test subject to the approval of the purchaser.
• The bend test specimens shall be bent at room temperature through 180 without cracking on the outside of the bent portion.

Packing:

• Packed in wooden crates, wrapped in plastic, and suitably protected for sea-worthly delivery or as requested.
• Both ends of each crate will indicate the order no., heat no., dimensions, weight and bundles or as requested.

Delivery:

Pipes are supplied in hexagonal bundles or round bundles tied with steel strip.
Weight of bundle – up to 5000 kg upon request of customer.
Each bundle is furnished with three tags.

ASTM A213 Standard Scope

1.1 This specification covers seamless ferritic and austenitic steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes, designated Grades T91, TP304, etc. These steels are listed in Tables 1 and 2.
1.2 Grades containing the letter, H, in their designation, have requirements different from those of similar grades not containing the letter, H. These different requirements provide higher creep-rupture strength than normally achievable in similar grades without these different requirements.
1.3 The tubing sizes and thicknesses usually furnished to this specification are 1/8 in. [3.2 mm] in inside diameter to 5 in. [127 mm] in outside diameter and 0.015 to 0.500 in. [0.4 to 12.7 mm], inclusive, in minimum wall thickness or, if specified in the order, average wall thickness. Tubing having other diameters may be furnished, provided such tubes comply with all other requirements of this specification.
