Process5.1 The steel may be made by any process.5.2 If a specific type of melting is required by the purchaser, it shall be st
34、ated on the purchase order.5.3 The primary melting may incorporate separate degassing or refining and may be followed by secondary melting, such aselectroslag remelting or vacuum-arc remelting. If secondary melting is employed, the heat shall be defined as all of the ingotsremelted from a single pri
35、mary heat.5.4 Steel may be cast in ingots or may be strand cast. When steel of different grades are sequentially strand cast, identificationof the resultant transition material is required. The producer shall remove the transition material by an established procedure thatpositively separates the gra

Condition7.1 The tubes shall be furnished in any of the following conditions as specified:7.1.1 As welded,7.1.2 Welded and annealed,7.1.3 Cold re
37、duced,7.1.4 Cold reduced and annealed.7.2 The inside diameter bead shall be furnished in any of the following conditions as specified:7.2.1 Bead not removed,7.2.2 Bead controlled to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) or 15 % of the specified wall thickness, whichever is greater, and7.2.3 Bead removed.7.3 Square an
38、d rectangular welded stainless tubing is supplied as cold worked unless otherwise specified.8. Heat Analysis8.1 An analysis of each heat of steel shall be made by the steel manufacturer to determine the percentages of the elementsspecified. If secondary melting processes are employed, the heat analy
39、sis shall be obtained from one remelted ingot or the productof one remelted ingot of each primary melt. The chemical composition thus determined, or that determined from a product analysismade by the tubular product manufacturer, shall conform to requirements specified. When requested in the order o
40、r contract, areport of this analysis shall be furnished to the purchaser. (See Test Methods, Practices, and Terminology A751.)9. Permissible Variations in DimensionsRound Tubing9.1 For all conditions except tubing with bead removed, Table 2 shall apply.9.2 For tubing with bead removed, Table 3 shall
41、 apply.9.3 LengthsTubing is normally furnished in mill lengths 5 ft (1.5 m) and over. Definite cut lengths are furnished whenspecified, to the length tolerances shown in Table 4. For tubing ordered in multiple lengths, it is common practice to allow a definiteamount over for each multiple for the pu
42、rchasers cutting operation. Thus cutting allowance should be specified in the purchaseorder.A554 15a4TABLE 2 Diameter, Wall,A and Ovality Tolerances (All Conditions Except Tubing with Bead Removed)NOTE 1Ovality is the difference between maximum and minimum outside diameters measured at any one cross
43、 section. There is no additionaltolerance for ovality on tubes having a specified wall thickness of more than 3 % of the outside diameter.NOTE 2For sizes up to and including 5-in. (127.0-mm) outside diameter, an ovality tolerance of twice the tabular outside diameter tolerance spreadshown is applied
44、 one half plus and one half minus to tubes having a specified wall thickness of 3 % or less of the specified outside diameter. The averageof the maximum and minimum outside diameter readings should fall within the outside diameter tolerances as shown in this table.NOTE 3For sizes over 5-in. (127.0-m
45、m) to and including 16-in. (406.4-mm) outside diameter, when the specified wall thickness is 3 % or less of theoutside diameter, the ovality shall not exceed 1.5 % of the specified outside diameter.OD Size, in.
