1、Designation: A214/A214M 96 (Reapproved 2018)Standard Specification forElectric-Resistance-Welded Carbon Steel Heat-Exchangerand Condenser Tubes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A214/A214M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,
2、in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scop
3、e1.1 This specification2covers minimum-wall-thickness,electric-resistance-welded, carbon steel tubes to be used forheat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat-transfer appara-tus.1.2 The tubing sizes usually furnished to this specificationare to 3 in. 76.2 mm in outside diameter, inclusive. Tubing
4、having other dimensions may be furnished, provided suchtubes comply with all other requirements of this specification.1.3 Mechanical property requirements do not apply totubing smaller than18 in. 3.2 mm in inside diameter or 0.015in. 0.4 mm in thickness.1.4 The purchaser shall specify in the order t
5、he outsidediameter and minimum wall thickness. The inside diametershall not be specified.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalent
6、s; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the specifi-cation. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M”designation of this specification is specified in the order.1.6 This international standard was

16、 (TBT) Committee.17. Chemical Composition7.1 The steel shall conform to the following requirements asto chemical composition:Carbon, max % 0.18Manganese, % 0.27 to 0.63Phosphorus, max, % 0.035Sulfur, max, % 0.0357.2 Supplying an alloy grade of steel that specificallyrequires the addition of any elem
17、ent other than those listed in7.1 is not permitted.8. Product Analysis8.1 When requested on the purchase order, a product analy-sis shall be made by the supplier from 1 tube per 250 pieces;when tubes are identified by heat, one tube per heat shall beanalyzed. The chemical composition thus determined
18、 shallconform to the requirements specified.8.2 If the original test for product analysis fails, retests oftwo additional lengths of flat-rolled stock, or tubes shall bemade. Both retests, for the elements in question, shall meet therequirements of the specification; otherwise all remainingmaterial
19、in the heat or lot (Note 1) shall be rejected or, at theoption of the producer, each length of flat-rolled stock or tubemay be individually tested for acceptance. Lengths of flat-rolled stock or tubes which do not meet the requirements of thespecification shall be rejected.NOTE 1A lot consists of 25
20、0 tubes.9. Hardness Requirements9.1 The tubes shall have a hardness number not exceeding72 HRB.10. Mechanical Tests Required10.1 Flattening TestOne flattening test shall be made onspecimens from each of two tubes from each lot (Note 1)orfraction thereof.10.2 Flange TestOne flange test shall be made
21、on speci-mens from each of two tubes from each lot (Note 1) or fractionthereof.10.3 Reverse Flattening TestOne reverse flattening testshall be made on a specimen from each 1500 ft 450 m offinished tubing.10.4 Hardness TestBrinell or Rockwell hardness testsshall be made on specimens from two tubes fr
22、om each lot. Theterm lot applies to all tubes prior to cutting, of the samenominal diameter and wall thickness which are produced fromthe same heat of steel. When final heat treatment is in abatch-type furnace, a lot shall include only those tubes of thesame size and the same heat which are heat tre
23、ated in the samefurnace charge. When final heat treatment is in a continuousfurnace, a lot shall include all tubes of the same size and heat,heat treated in the same furnace at the same temperature, timeat heat, and furnace speed.10.5 Hydrostatic or Nondestructive Electric TestEachtube shall be subj
24、ected to either the hydrostatic or the nonde-structive electric test. The purchaser may specify which test isto be used.11. Surface Condition11.1 The finished tubes shall be free of scale. A slightamount of oxidation shall not be considered as scale.12. Product Marking12.1 In addition to the marking
25、 prescribed in SpecificationA450/A450M, the letters “ERW” shall be legibly stenciled oneach tube, or marked on a tag attached to the bundle or box inwhich the tubes are shipped.12.2 The manufacturers name or symbol may be placedpermanently on each tube by rolling or light stamping beforenormalizing.
26、 If a single stamp is placed on the tube by hand,this mark should not be less than 8 in. 200 mm from one endof the tube.12.3 Bar CodingIn addition to the requirements in 12.1and 12.2 bar coding is acceptable as a supplemental identifi-cation method.
