Austenitic Welded Stainless ERW Steel Pipe With Socket And Plastic Caps
General Information of ASME SA312
1.1 This specification covers seamless, straight-seam welded, and heavily cold worked welded austenitic stain-less steel pipe intended for high-temperature and general corrosive service.
1.2 Grades TP304H, TP309H, TP309HCb, TP310H, TP310HCb, TP316H, TP321H, TP347H, and TP348H are modifications of Grades TP304, TP309Cb, TP309S, TP310Cb, TP310S, TP316, TP321, TP347, and TP348, and are intended for high-temperature service.
1.3 Optional supplementary requirements are provided for pipe where a greater degree of testing is desired. These supplementary requirements call for additional tests to be made and, when desired, one or more of these may be specified in the order.
1.4 Table X1.1 lists the standardized dimensions of welded and seamless stainless steel pipe as shown in ANSI B36.19. These dimensions are also applicable to heavily cold worked pipe. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification.
487
1.5 Grades TP321 and TP321H have lower strength requirements for pipe manufactured by the seamless pro-cess in nominal wall thicknesses greater than 3⁄8 in. [9.5 mm].
1.6 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M” designation of this specification is specified in the order.

Test:
1. The test specimens and the tests required by this specification shall conform to those described in the latest issue of Test Methods and Definitions A 370.
2. The longitudinal tension test specimen shall be taken from the end of the pipe or, for continuous-welded pipe, it shall be permissible to be taken from the skelp, ata point approximately 90° from the weld, and shall not be flattened between gage marks. The sides of each specimen shall be parallel between gage marks. If desired, the tension tests are permitted to be made on the full section of pipe. When impracticable to pull a test specimen in full section,
the standard 2-in. [50-mm] gage length tension test speci-men shown in Fig. A2.3 of Test Methods and Definitions
A 370 is acceptable.
3. Transverse weld test specimens from electric-resistance-welded pipe shall be taken with the weld at the center of the specimen. All transverse test specimens shall be approximately 1 1⁄2in. [40 mm] wide in the gage length and shall represent the full wall thickness of the pipe from which the specimen was cut.
4. Test specimens for the bend and flattening tests shall be taken from pipe. Test specimens for the flattening test shall be smooth on the ends and free from burrs.
5. All specimens shall be tested at room temperature.
