The concept and characteristics of ASME SA106B seamless steel pipe

ASME SA106M is one of the standards of the steel piping code developed by ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers). The standard specifies the requirements for the use of steel pipelines in high temperature and high pressure environments, covering the requirements of pipeline materials, sizes, manufacturing processes, detection methods and other aspects. It is a comprehensive specification for the design, manufacture, installation and use of steel pipelines, aiming to ensure the safe and reliable operation of steel pipelines in high temperature and high pressure environments.

Regarding the characteristics of ASME SA106B seamless steel pipe, there are mainly the following points:

Corrosion resistance: It has good corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of various chemical substances.

Stability: not easy to deform in high temperature environment, good dimensional stability.

The delivery status of ASME SA106B seamless steel pipes can be hot rolled, cold drawn, hot expanded or heat treated, depending on the final process in the production process.

In terms of application, ASME SA106B seamless steel pipe is mainly used for heating surface pipes of low and medium pressure boilers (working pressure is generally not greater than 5.88Mpa, working temperature is below 450℃), and high pressure boilers (working pressure is generally above 9.8Mpa, The working temperature is between 450℃ ~ 650℃) heating surface pipe, economizer, superheater, reheater, pipe for petrochemical industry, etc. In addition, it is also widely used in engineering, coal mine, thermal power, boiler, bridge, grid structure and mechanical equipment processing and other fields, in these fields, the steel pipe is required to have high durable strength, high oxidation corrosion resistance, and has good organizational stability.
