ASTM A269 & ASME SA 269 Tubing Overview

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!
  • ASTM A269 tubing is commonly used for low and high-temperature services. It is made from various steel types, and its processes can include electric fusion weld, electric resistant weld, or seamless cold drawing.
  • ASME SA 269 Tp 316 is more corrosion-resistant than the Tp 304 and is suitable for high pressure and temperature applications.

Specifications & Standards

  1. Shapes: Round, Rectangular, Square, and others.
  2. Manufacturing Type: Seamless, ERW, Welded, Fabricated, and other forms.
  3. Surface Finish: Options like BA, 2B, No.1, No.4, and others.
  4. Thickness Range: SCH 5 to SCH XXS.
  5. Standard: Covers international standards like SUS, JIS, AISI, ASTM, GB, DIN, EN, and more.
  6. Technique: Cold drawn, Hot rolled, Extrusion tube, etc.

Mechanical Properties

  • Lists the heat treatment, temperature, and hardness for different grades like TP304, TP304L, TP316, TP316L, TP321, and TP347.

Chemical Composition

  • Specifies the chemical composition of different grades. For example, TP304 contains 18.0-20.0% Chromium (Cr) and 8.0-11.0% Nickel (Ni).

Tolerance

  • Specifies the outer diameter (OD) tolerance, weight (WT) tolerance, and length tolerance based on the size of the tubing.

Applications & Uses

  • Ideal for general industrial services like in the chemical, paper, fertilizer, fabric, aviation, and nuclear sectors.
  • Suitable for fluid, gas, and oil transport, heat transmission, construction, boilers, heat exchangers, and more.

Other Features

  • It can be customized with various value-added services like cutting, bending, threading, polishing, etc.
  • The tubing comes with various certifications and test reports to ensure its quality.

Supplying ASTM A269 Tp304 Welded Stainless Steel Tube with Mill Test Report & best Price Guarantee

The ASTM A269 Tp316 Tube is used in high temperature services with high pressures such as the hydraulic systems. Other specifications of the ASTM A269 Tube could be used in textile, chemical and marine industries. The ASTM A269 Tolerances are high for chloride ion rich environments and most oxidizing agents. Therefore the ASTM A269 Seamless Stainless Steel Tubing is a good choice for chemical and marine industries. Also the corrosion resistance for general services is great with ASTM A269 Seamless Tubing. Due to the accuracy in dimensions, strength and corrosion resistance, the ASTM A269 SS Tubing is widely used along these industries. Oshwin Overseas is a supplier of these products and our ASTM A269 Tubing Pressure Rating allow us to produce different pressure classes of these pipes for customer requirements.
