Date:2019-10-12      View(s):857      Tag:ASTM A179 heat exchange tubes
ASTM A179 Condenser and heat exchange tubes of low carbon steel, covering the minimum wall thickness, low cold carbon steel tubes for tubes, heat exchangers, condensers and other transfer services of heat ASTM A 179 seamless steel pipe is supplied and produced by cold drawing.

The standard specification of the ASTM A179 (SA 179) standard covers cold drawn seamless steel pipe for tubular heat exchanger, condensers and other similar heat transfer equipment.

The ASTM A179 tube covers the OD from 1/8 "to 3", which is 3.2 mm to 76.2 mm. Other diameters and thicknesses smaller than the specified sizes are also applicable to this standard, but the mechanical properties are not applicable for sizes less than 1/8 "and 3.2 mm, or thickness less than 0.015 inches 0.4 mm.

Applications: For tubular heat exchangers, condensers and similar heat transfer devices.

The chemical composition contains carbon, manganese, phosphorus and sulfur. Required test: hardness test, crush test, flare test, flange test and hydrostatic test.
