17、hase order.4. Requirements4.1 Material and WeightPipe nipples covered by this specification shall be made from new, hydrostatic-tested or NDE-testedpipe conforming to the requirements specified in 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.4.1.1 Carbon SteelCarbon steel pipe nipples shall be in accordance with the following:M
18、ethod of Pipe Manufacture SpecificationWelded (Note 1) A53Seamless (Note 2) A53A106NOTE 1Unless otherwise specified, continuouswelded nipples are furnished in sizes NPS 4 and under for standard and extra strong pipe, and NPS212 and under for Schedule 160 and double extra strong pipe. Welded nipples
19、in sizes larger than that indicated for continuouswelded are electricresistance welded.4.1.2 Austenitic Stainless SteelAustenitic stainless steel pipe nipples shall be in accordance with Specification A312/A312M.4.2 ThreadsPipe nipples shall be threaded on both ends with NPT taper pipe threads confo
20、rming to the requirements ofANSIB 1.20.1, except for “close” nipples where L 4 and V are shorter, due to fewer imperfect threads. It is standard manufacturingpractice on all other nipple lengths to vary L 4 plus or minus two threads. All other dimensions, tolerances, and gaging practicesremain the s
21、ame as ANSI B 1.20.1, plus 5.3 of this specification.4.2.1 Threads shall be right-hand on both ends, except when otherwise specified.4.3 Lengths:4.3.1 The standard lengths and sizes of nipples generally available are shown in Table 2. The availability of such nipplesaccording to pipe size and weight
22、 is shown in Table 1.4.3.2 Special lengths and sizes of nipples may be specified when required. Standard and special lengths shall conform to thetolerance requirements of 4.3.3.4.3.3 Nipples with lengths up through 12 in. (304.8 mm) long shall have a length tolerance of 6 116 in. (1.6 mm). Nipples o
23、ver12 in. long shall have a tolerance of 6 18 in. (3.2 mm).4.4 End FinishThe ends of the pipe nipples shall be chamfered on the outside at an angle of 35 6 10 to the central axis.(It is the standard practice that the 18-in. (3.2-mm) nominal pipe size nipples are not chamfered.) Ends shall be cut rea
24、sonablysquare to the central axis. All burrs on the inside shall be removed.4.5 Galvanized NipplesGalvanized nipples ordered under this specification shall be made from pipe coated on the inside andoutside by the hot-dip process. Threads and nipple ends are not galvanized.5. Sampling and Inspection5
25、.1 SamplingSamples of nipples sufficient to determine their conformance with the requirements of this specification shall betaken at random for each lot of nipples of the same pipe size, length, and material.TABLE 1 Pipe Nipple Sizes According to Weight of Nominal PipeSizesABWeightNPS Designator18 1

28、 to determine their conformance with the dimensional requirements, includingthread dimensions and finish of this specification.5.3 Gaging Techniques for Male Threads:5.3.1 An NPT working ring gage, in accordance with ANSI B1.20.1, shall be turned hand tight on the nipple threads. The gageshall be ta
29、pped or rapped against a solid surface and the gage again turned hand tight into the thread. Hand tight means turningthe gage until moderate resistance is encountered; no excessive force shall be used. After the second tightening operation, the endof the thread should be flush to the gage face, plus
30、 or minus one turn.5.3.2 The reference point for gaging is the end of the thread provided the chamfer is not smaller than the minor diameter of theexternal thread. When a chamfer on the external thread exceeds this limit, the reference point becomes the last thread scratch onthe chamfer cone.5.3.3 T
31、he usual technique for tapping or rapping the gage is to swing the end of the fitting with the ring gage attached throughan arc of approximately 4 to 6 in. (100 to 150 mm) to allow the gage to strike against a solid metal surface. This tapping procedureis used to eliminate any binding due to slight
32、nicks or foreign matter in the threads.NOTE 2Any mechanical device that simulates the gage tapping or rapping to achieve the same results is also permitted.5.4 The inspector representing the purchaser shall have entry, at all times while work on the contract of the purchaser is beingperformed, to al
33、l parts of the manufacturers works that concern the manufacture of the nipples ordered. The manufacturer shallafford the inspector all reasonable facilities to satisfy him that the nipples are being furnished in accordance with this specification.Inspection shall be made at the place of manufacture
34、prior to shipment, unless otherwise specified, and shall be so conducted asnot to interfere unnecessarily with the operation of the works.6. Rejection6.1 Each nipple that fails to meet the requirement of this specification shall be rejected, and the manufacturer notified.TABLE 2 Pipe Nipples by Leng
