ASME Specifications 1

SA-36*
Covers carbon steel shapes, plates, and bars of structural quality for use in riveted, bolted. Or welded construction of bridges and buildings, and for general structural purposes. When the steel is used in welded construction, welding procedure shall be suitable for the steel and the intended service.

SA-53*
Covers seamless and welded black and hotdipped galvanized steel pipe in nominal sizes 1/8 in. to 26 in., incl. with nominal (average) wall thickness. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification.
1.2 Pipe may be furnished in the following types and grades;
1.2.1 Type F—Furnace-butt welded, continuous welded,
1.2.2 Type E—Electric-resistance welded, Grades A and B, and
1.2.3 Type S—Seamless, Grades A and B.
1.3 Pipe ordered under this specification is suitable for welding, and suitable for forming operatings involving coiling, bending and flanging, subject to the following qualifications;
1.3.1 Type F is not intended for flanging.
1.3.2 When Types S and E are required for close coiling or cold bending, Grade A should be specified. This provision is not intended to prohibit the cold bending of Grade B pipe.
1.3.3 When pipe is required for close coiling, this should be specified on the order.
1.3.4 Type E may be furnished either nonexpanded or cold expanded at the option of the manufacturer. When pipe is cold expanded, the amount of expansion shall not exceed 1.5% of the O.D. pipe size.

SA-105
Covers forged carbon steel piping components for ambient and highertemperature service in pressure systems. Included are flanges, fittings, valves and similar parts to specified dimensions or to dimensional standards such as those ANSI
and API specifications.


SA-106**
Covers seamless carbon steel pipe for hightemperature service in nominal sizes 1/8 in. to 26 in. inclusive. With nominal(average) wall thickness as given in ANSI B36.10. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of these specifications. Pipe ordered under this specification shall be suitable for bending, flanging and similar forming operations.


A-120
This specification covers black and hotdipped galvanized welded and seamless steel pipe in nominal sizes 1/8in. to 16 in. inclusive with nominal (average) wall thickness. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification . Pipe ordered under this specification is intended for ordinary uses in steam,water,gas, and air lines, but is not intended for close coiling or bending, or hightemperature service. No to this specification, except hydrostatic test which shall be made at the mills, as this specification is intended to cover pipe purchased mainly from jobber’s stocks.

SA-134**
Covers electric-fusion(arc)-welded straight seam or spiral seam steel plate pipe 16 in. and over in diameter (inside or outside as specified by purchaser), with wall thicknesses up to ¾ in.,inclusive. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of these specifications. The pipe is intended for conveying liquid, gas or vapor.

SA-135*
Covers two grades of electric-resistancewelded steel pipe in nominal sizes 2 in. to 30 in. inclusive with nominal(average) wall thickness up to 0.500 in. (12.70 mm), inclusive and in nominal sizes ¾ to 5 in. inclusive with nominal(average) wall thickness 0.083 in. (2.11 mm) to 0.134 in. (3.40mm) depending on size. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification. The pipe is intended for conveying liquid, gas or vapor: and only Grade A is adapted for flanging and bending.
