A106 PIPE SPECIFICATIONS

A/SA106 NPS 1/4"- 30" Schedules 10 through 160, ST , !" #$d !!"
Scope Covers seamless carbon steel nominal wall pipe for high-temperature service. Suitable for bending, flanging and similar forming operations. NPS 1-1/2 and under ma! be either hot finished or cold drawn. NPS 2 and larger shall be hot finished unless otherwise specified. Process "illed steel, with primar! melting process being open-hearth, basic-o#!gen, or electric-furnace, possibl! combined with separate degassing or refining. Steel cast in ingots or strand cast is permissible. $ot-finished pipe need not be heat treated. Cold-drawn pipe shall be heat treated after the final cold draw pass. Chemical Requirements
