The American Society for Testing and Materials specification ASTM A53 is the standard for black and hot-dipped, zinc-coated, welded and seamless steel pipes. This pipe is intended for mechanical and pressure applications and is also acceptable for ordinary use in steam, water, air and gas lines. It is suitable for welding and bending.
Nominal pipe size: 1/8'' to 30''
ASTM A53 Pipe Types
The following types and grades of A53 pipe are covered within this specification:
Type F Pipe - Furnace-butt-welded, continuous welded Grade A
Type E Pipe - Electric-resistance-welded, Grades A and B
Type S Pipe - Seamless, Grades A and B
ASTM A53 pipe application
1 Architecture: maximum pipeline under more groundwater extraction when towers, boilers, hot water conveyance and so on.
2 Machining, bearing sets, processing machinery and other accessories.
3 Electrical class: gas distribution, water power fluid conduit.
4 Anti-static tubes wind power plants.
