Finego - Model ASTM A53 -Seamless Steel Pipe

ASTM A53 steel pipe (also referred to as ASME SA53 pipe) is a carbon steel alloy, which can be used as structural steel pipes or for low-pressure pipelines and is also acceptable for ordinary uses in steam, water, gas and air lines.the alloy specifications are set by astm international in the specifications ASTM A53 / A53m.

• A53 pipe comes in three types (f, e, s) and two grades (a, b).
• A53 type f is manufactured with a furnace butt weld or may have a continuous weld (grade a only)
• A53 type e has an electric resistance weld (grades a and b)
• A53 type s is a seamless pipe and found in grades a and b
• A53 grade b seamless pipe is our most polar product under this specification and a53 pipe is commonly dual certified to a106 b seamless pipe.

Pipe ordered under this specification is intended for mechanical and pressure applications and is also acceptable for ordinary uses in steam, water, gas, and air lines. it is suitable for welding, and suitable for forming operations involving coiling, bending, and flanging, subject to the following qualifications:

1. Type f is not intended for flanging.

2. When types s and e are required for close coiling or cold bending, grade a is the preferred grade. this provision is not intended to prohibit the cold bending of grade b pipe.

3. Type e is furnished either nonexpanded or cold expanded at the option of the manufacturer.

Scope:

ASTM A53 pipe covers seamless and welded, black and hot-dipped galvanized nominal (average) wall pipe for coiling, bending, flanging and other special purposes and is suitable for welding. continuous-welded pipe is not intended for flanging. purpose for which pipe is intended should be stated on order.
