18、f American Standards Association (ASA) Sectional Committee A40 onMinimum Requirements for Plumbing and Standardization of Plumbing Equipment, organizedin August 1928, under the procedures of the ASA. Subcommittee No. 11 on Solder-JointFittings for Tubing was appointed in October 1936.At its first me

19、eting, the subcommittee was informed of the investigation of solder jointsbeing carried out by the National Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute ofStandards and Technology). It was decided that the committees scope should cover onlysolder fittings for use in plumbing. A subgroup was appoi

20、nted to study the tolerances ofcommercial fittings, including depth of bore, laying lengths, and diameters of copper tube.A draft standard was sent to the subcommittee in February 1939; a revision was distributedin August to selected organizations and individuals for review. A new subcommittee draft

21、dated April 1940 was approved by Sectional Committee A40, the sponsor, and followingASA approval, was published in January 1941 as ASA A40.3-1941.In 1949, the sponsors agreed to transfer responsibility for solder joint fittings to SectionalCommittee B16 of ASA, because the fittings were being used i

22、n many applications otherthan plumbing. Subcommittee 9, Standardization of Solder Joint Fittings was establishedand charged with developing a revised standard. An April 1949 draft was distributed forindustry review, resulting in recommended changes. A new draft was approved by SectionalCommittee B16

23、, sponsor organizations, and ASA and published as ASA B16.18-1950.Work began in 1958 on a revision, including improvements in language. It was approvedby B16, sponsor organizations, and ASA and published as ASA B16.18-1963. Starting in1969, a comprehensive review resulted in revisions to clarify the

24、 text and to permit additionalmaterial. Final approval was granted by the American National Standards Institute (formallyASA) on March 2, 1972, for publication as ANSI B16.18-1972.The subcommittee, now Subcommittee I, began a new revision on 1974, resulting in theaddition of supply and return tees,

25、baseboard tees, and flush bushings, as well as metrication,and change of “bronze” to “copper alloy.” The draft finally approved was published asANSI B16.18-1978.In 1982, American National Standards Committee B16 became the ASME B16 StandardsCommittee, operating with the same scope under ASME procedu

26、res accredited by ANSI.Subsequently, Subcommittee I merged with Subcommittee J, which had a related scope. Ageneral review was then started, resulting in a number of editorial changes and a fewpictorial corrections. Table 2 (now Table 3) was updated to three place decimals from four,bringing the tab

27、le more in line with practical gaging methods. Table B2 (now Table B3)was correspondingly corrected. Following approval by Subcommittee J, the B16 StandardsCommittee, and ASME, the American National Standards Institute granted approval onJanuary 13, for publication as ANSI B16.18-1984. The standard

28、was reaffirmed in 1994with no change.This 2001 edition of B16.18 contains a defined bursting strength, defined standard gagingmethod of threaded ends, and other clarifications and updates to text. Following approvalby the Standards Committee and ASME, approval as an American National Standard wasgiv

29、en on October 17, 2001 with the designation ASME B16.18-2001.Requests for interpretations and suggestions for revision should be sent to the Secretary,B16 Committee, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Three Park Avenue, NewYork, NY 10016-5990.vCopyright ASME International Provided by IHS

36、es requirements for:(a) pressure-temperature ratings;(b) abbreviations for end connections;(c) sizes and method of designating openings offittings;(d) marking;(e) material;(f) dimensions and tolerances; and(g) tests.1.2 Units of MeasurementThe values stated in either U.S. Customary (inch-lb.) or SI

37、(metric) units of measure shall be regardedseparately as standard. Within the main text, U.S.Customary units are given. For convenience, the SIunits are shown in parentheses and in NonmandatoryAnnex B. The values stated in each system are notexact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be usedind

38、ependently of the other.NOTE: Combining values from the two systems may result innonconformance with the Standard.1.3 ConventionFor the purpose of determining conformance withthis Standard, the convention for fixing significant digitswhere units, maximum or minimum values, are specifiedshall be “rou

39、nding off” as defined in ASTM PracticeE 29. This requires that an observed or calculated valueshall be rounded off to the nearest unit in the lastright-hand digit used for expressing the limit.11.4 ReferencesStandards and specifications adopted by reference inthis Standard are shown in Nonmandatory

40、Annex D,which is part of this Standard. It is not consideredpractical to identify the specific edition of each standardand specification in the individual references. Instead,the specific edition reference is identified in Nonmanda-tory Annex D.1.5 Quality SystemRequirements relating to the product

41、manufacturersQuality System Programs are described in Nonmanda-tory Annex E.2 PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE RATINGS2.1 Rating of Fitting and of JointThe internal working-pressure-temperature rating fora solder joint fitting is dependent not only on fittingand tube strength, but also on the composition of the

42、solder used for the joint and selection of valves andappurtenances.The internal working-pressure ratings of the systemshall be the lowest of the values shown in Table 1and Nonmandatory Annex A, and those of the tube,valves, or appurtenances.Pressure-temperature ratings for solder joints to thedimens

43、ions of Table 3, made with typical commercialsolders, are given in Nonmandatory Annex A.2.2 Bursting StrengthWhen tested at 73F5F (23C2C) fittings manu-factured to this standard shall have an ambient-tempera-ture bursting strength of at least four times the 100F(38C) internal working-pressure rating
