1、Designation: B 698 02Standard Classification forSeamless Copper and Copper Alloy Plumbing Pipe andTube1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 698; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revi
2、sion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope *1.1 This classification covers various types of seamlesscopper and copper alloy2pipe and tube used for water service,distributio
3、n, and drainage. It is not a specification for thevarious types and alloys.1.2 This classification uses the standard copper designationsdeveloped and used by the copper industry.1.3 This classification makes no attempt to differentiatebetween all compositions that could be termed coppers orcopper al
4、loys, but, in conformance with general practice in thetrade includes those coppers and copper alloys commonly usedin the manufacture of water service, distribution, and drainagepipe and tube.1.4 This classification makes no attempt to differentiatebetween all applications of seamless copper and copp
5、er alloypiping and tubing, and is intended for use in water servicedistribution and drainage.2.

Basis of Classification5.1 Tables 1 and 2 list ASTM specifications, types, desig-nations, general applications, range of sizes
11、 of water tubesproduced currently, and the copper or copper alloy UNSnumber. The listed products are not necessarily available in thecomplete range of coppers and alloys or sizes, nor from anyone supplier in all forms.5.2 Existing ASTM specifications for seamless copper andcopper alloys may cover mo
