An overview of the ASTM Volume 01.01 standard
The ASTM International Volume 01.01, January 2002 Steel – Piping, Tubing, Fittings – features standards for various types of steel pipes specifying requirements for high-temperature services, ordinary use, and special applications such as fire protection systems.
Specifications for steel tubes list standard requirements for boiler and superheater tubes, general service tubes, still tubes in refinery service, heat exchanger and condenser tubes, mechanical tubing, and structural tubing. Steel casting specifications call out the standard properties for valves, flanges, fittings, and other pressure containing parts for high-temperature and low-temperature services.
