❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q What is ASTM B167 / B167M and what does it cover?
ASTM B167 / B167M is the standard specification for seamless pipe and tube made from nickel-chromium-iron alloys. It covers a range of UNS alloys including N06600, N06601, N06603, N06690, N06693, N06025, and N06045, used in high-temperature and corrosive service environments.
Q Which alloy is most commonly specified under ASTM B167?
UNS N06600 (Nickel-Chromium-Iron) is the most widely used alloy under ASTM B167. It is a general-purpose alloy suitable for a broad range of high-temperature and corrosive applications across industries such as chemical processing, heat treating, and power generation.
Q What mechanical properties are required for N06600 in the annealed condition?
For UNS N06600 in the annealed condition, ASTM B167 requires a minimum tensile strength of 80 ksi (550 MPa), a minimum yield strength of 35 ksi (240 MPa), and a minimum elongation of 30%.
Q What testing and inspection methods are required under ASTM B167?
ASTM B167 requires chemical analysis per heat/lot, tensile testing per lot, hydrostatic or nondestructive testing (such as eddy current testing) for leak and defect detection, dimensional checks, and visual surface inspection. Mill Test Reports (MTRs) must also be provided by the supplier.
Q Why is UNS N06690 preferred for nuclear applications?
UNS N06690 is a low-carbon nickel-chromium-iron alloy with excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, which is critical in nuclear environments. Its low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation, making it particularly suitable for steam generator tubing and other nuclear-grade applications.
Q What information must be provided when placing an order for ASTM B167 pipe or tube?
When ordering ASTM B167 seamless pipe or tube, buyers must specify the ASTM designation (B167 or B167M), the alloy UNS number, required dimensions (OD, wall thickness, and length), material condition (annealed or cold-worked), any additional test requirements, certification needs, and any special packaging instructions.
