18、 or may be strand cast.When steel of different grades are sequentially strand cast,identification of the resultant transition material is required.The producer shall remove the transition material by anyestablished procedure that positively separates the grades.5.1.4 Pipe NPS 112 and under may be ei
19、ther hot finished orcold drawn.5.1.5 Unless otherwise specified, pipe NPS 2 and over shallbe furnished hot finished. When agreed upon between themanufacturer and purchaser, cold-drawn pipe may be fur-nished.5.2 Heat TreatmentAll hot-finished and cold-drawn pipeshall be reheated to a temperature abov
20、e 1550 F (845C) andfollowed by cooling in air or in the cooling chamber of acontrolled atmosphere furnace.6. Chemical Composition6.1 The steel shall conform to the chemical requirementsprescribed in Table 1.7. Heat Analysis7.1 An analysis of each heat of steel shall be made by thesteel manufacturer
21、to determine the percentages of the ele-ments specified in Section 6. The chemical composition thusdetermined, or that determined from a product analysis madeby the manufacturer, if the latter has not manufactured thesteel, shall be reported to the purchaser or the purchasersrepresentative, and shal
22、l conform to the requirements specifiedin Section 6.8. Product Analysis8.1 At the request of the purchaser, analyses of two pipesfrom each lot (Note 2) shall be made by the manufacturer fromthe finished pipe. The chemical composition thus determinedshall conform to the requirements specified in Sect
23、ion 6.NOTE 2Alot shall consist of 400 lengths, or fraction thereof, for eachsize NPS 2 up to but not including NPS 6, and of 200 lengths, or fractionthereof, for each size NPS 6 and over.8.2 If the analysis of one of the tests specified in 8.1 doesnot conform to the requirements specified in Section
24、 6,analyses shall be made on additional pipe of double the originalnumber from the same lot, each of which shall conform torequirements specified.9. Physical Properties9.1 Tensile PropertiesThe material shall conform to therequirements as to tensile properties prescribed in Table 2.9.2 Bending Prope
25、rties:9.2.1 For pipe NPS 2 and under, a sufficient length of pipeshall stand being bent cold through 90 around a cylindricalmandrel, the diameter of which is twelve times the nominaldiameter of the pipe, without developing cracks. When orderedfor close coiling, the pipe shall stand being bent cold t
26、hrough180 around a cylindrical mandrel, the diameter of which iseight times the nominal diameter of the pipe, without failure.9.2.2 For pipe whose diameter exceeds 25 in. (635 mm) andwhose diameter to wall thickness ratio is 7.0 or less, bend testspecimens shall be bent at room temperature through 1
27、80without cracking on the outside of the bent portion. The insidediameter of the bend shall be 1 in. (25.4 mm). This test shall bein place of Section 10.NOTE 3Diameter to wall thickness ratio = specified outside diameter/nominal wall thickness.Example: For 28 in. diameter 5.000 in. thick pipe the di
28、ameter to wallthickness ratio = 28/5 = 5.6.10. Flattening Test Requirements10.1 For pipe over NPS 2, a section of pipe not less than 212in. (63.5 mm) in length shall be flattened cold between parallelplates until the opposite walls of the pipe meet. Flattening testsshall be in accordance with Specif
29、ication A530/A530M, exceptthat in the equation used to calculate the H value, the followinge constants shall be used:0.07 for Grade I0.08 for Grade II10.2 When low D-to-t ratio tubulars are tested, because thestrain imposed due to geometry is unreasonably high on theinside surface at the 6 and 12 oc
30、lock locations, cracks at theselocations shall not be cause for rejection if the D-to-t ratio isless than ten.11. Hydrostatic Test Requirements11.1 Each length of pipe shall be subjected to the hydro-static pressure, except as provided in 11.2.11.2 When specified in the order, pipe may be furnishedw

Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance14.1 The pipe manufacturer shall explore a sufficient num-ber of visual surface imperfections to provide reasonableassurance that they have been properly evaluated with respectto depth. Exploration of all surface imperfections is notrequired but may be necessa
37、ry to assure compliance with 14.2.14.2 Surface imperfections that penetrate more than 1212 %of the nominal wall thickness or encroach on the minimumwall thickness shall be considered defects.
