ASTM A 671/A 671M:2020

1.1 This specification 2 covers electric-fusion-welded steel pipe with filler metal added, fabricated from pressure vessel quality plate of several analyses and strength levels and suitable for high-pressure service at atmospheric and lower temperatures. Heat treatment may or may not be required to attain the desired properties or to comply with applicable code requirements. Supplementary requirements are provided for use when additional testing or examination is desired. 1.2 The specification nominally covers pipe 16 in. [400 mm] in outside diameter or larger and of ¹/₄ in. [6 mm] wall thickness or greater. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided it complies with all other requirements of this specification. 1.3 Several grades and classes of pipe are provided. 1.3.1 Grade designates the type of plate used as listed in 5.1 . 1.3.2 Class designates the type of heat treatment performed during manufacture of the pipe, whether the weld is radiographically examined, and whether the pipe has been pressure tested as listed in 1.3.3 . 1.3.3 Class designations are as follows ( Note 1 ): Class Heat Treatment on Pipe Radiography, see Section Pressure Test, see: 10 none none none 11 none 9 none 12 none 9 8.3 13 none none 8.3 20 stress relieved, see 5.3.1 none none 21 stress relieved, see 5.3.1 9 none 22 stress relieved, see 5.3.1 9 8.3 23 stress relieved, see 5.3.1 none 8.3 30 normalized, see 5.3.2 none none 31 normalized, see 5.3.2 9 none 32 normalized, see 5.3.2 9 8.3 33 normalized, see 5.3.2 none 8.3 40 normalized and tempered, see 5.3.3 none none 41 normalized and tempered, see 5.3.3 9 none 42 normalized and tempered, see 5.3.3 9 8.3 43 normalized and tempered, see 5.3.3 none 8.3 50 quenched and tempered, see 5.3.4 none none 51 quenched and tempered, see 5.3.4 9 none 52 quenched and tempered, see 5.3.4 9 8.3 53 quenched and tempered, see 5.3.4 none 8.3 70 quenched and precipitation heat treated none none 71 quenched and precipitation heat treated 9 none 72 quenched and precipitation heat treated 9 ...
