Temper7.1 Drawn Tempers, HThe tempers of drawn tube shall bedesignated as light-drawn (H55), drawn (H58), and hard-drawn(H80) (see
16、 Table 2). Light-drawn (bending) temper is used onlywhen a tube of some stiffness but yet capable of being bent isneeded. Drawn temper is for general purposes and is mostcommonly used where there is no specific requirement for highstrength on the one hand or for bending qualities on the other.Hard-d
17、rawn temper is used only where there is need for a tubeas strong as is commercially feasible for the sizes indicated.For any combination of diameter and wall thickness notcovered under hard-drawn temper, the values given for drawntemper shall be used. Rectangular including square tubes shallnormally
18、 be supplied only in drawn (general purpose) temper.When there is a need for light-drawn or hard-drawn tempersthese are to be supplied as agreed upon between the manufac-turer and the purchaser.7.2 Annealed Tempers, OThe tempers of annealed tubeshall be designated as light anneal (O50) and soft anne
19、al (O60)(Table 3).NOTE 2Tube of Copper Alloy UNS No. C23000, when specified tomeet the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, shallhave in the annealed condition a minimum tensile strength of 275 MPaand a minimum yield strength of 80 MPa at 0.5 % extension under load,in which case
20、 the provisions for grain size and Rockwell hardness in 8.2do not apply.8. Mechanical Properties8.1 Drawn TemperTube shall conform to the mechanicalproperties prescribed in Table 2. Tension tests are required fortubes with a wall thickness under (0.508 mm) and for roundtubes having an inside diamete
21、r under 8.0 mm and forrectangular including square tubes having a major distancebetween inside parallel surfaces under 5.0 mm. The tension testfor other sizes of tubes need not be made except whenindicated by the purchaser at the time of placing the order. Aconvenient method of indicating that the t
22、ension test is requiredis to specify that “Test procedure T is required” (see 4.1.3).When agreement on the Rockwell hardness tests cannot bereached, the tensile strength requirements of Table 2 shall bethe basis for acceptance or rejection.8.2 Annealed TemperTube shall conform to the grain sizeand R
23、ockwell hardness limits prescribed in Table 3.9. Expansion Test for Round Tube9.1 Tube ordered in the annealed (O) condition, selected fortest, shall be capable of withstanding in accordance with TestMethod B 153 an expansion of the outside diameter by thefollowing amount:Outside Diameter, mmExpansi
24、on of OutsideDiameter, %19.0 and under 20Over 19.0 15The expanded tube shall show no cracking or rupture visibleto the unaided eye. Tube ordered in the drawn (H) condition isnot subject to this test.NOTE 3The term “unaided eye,” as used herein, permits the use ofcorrective spectacles necessary to ob
25、tain normal vision.9.2 As an alternative to the expansion test for tube over 102mm in diameter in the annealed condition, a section 102 mm inlength shall be cut from the end of one of the lengths for aflattening test. This 102-mm test specimen shall be flattened sothat a gage set at three times the
26、wall thickness will pass overthe tube freely throughout the flattened part.

Immediately after removal from thesolution, the specimen shall be wiped free of excess mercuryand examined for cracks.11. Nondestructive Testing11.1 Unless nondestructive testing has been waived, tubesshall

The manufacturershall select the nondestructive test that is most suitable for thetube size and the application.11.1.1 Eddy-current testing is the standard nondestructivetest, and all tubes of appropriate size shall be eddy-currenttested in accordance with 11.2
33、.11.1.2 Tubes that are not of a size suitable for eddy-currenttest capabilities shall be tested by the hydrostatic test asdescribed in 11.3.1, or by the pneumatic test as described in11.3.2.11.2 Eddy-Current TestEach tube up to 79 mm in outsidediameter shall be subjected to an eddy-current test. Tes
34、tingshall follow the procedure of Practice E 243, except thedetermination of “end effect” is not required. Tubes shall bepassed through an eddy-current test unit adjusted to provideinformation on the suitability of the tube for the intendedapplication.11.2.1 Notch-depth standards rounded to the near
35、est 0.03mm shall be 22 % of the nominal wall thickness. The notch-depth tolerance shall be 60.01 mm.

The purchaser shall have theoption to specify eithe
46、r a hydrostatic test in 11.3.1 or thepneumatic test in 11.3.2. When, in the case in which subse-quent testing by the purchaser establishes that the material doesnot meet these requirements, then the tubes shall be subject torejection.11.3.1 Hydrostatic TestWhen specified, the tube shallstand, withou

The test method usedshall provide for easy visual detection of
49、any leakage, such asby immeresion of the tube under water or by the pressure-differential method. Any evidence of leakage shall be cause forrejection.12.
