    Pipe Spec Comparison

    Uploaded by

    Kazi Anwarul Azim Sohel
    The document describes various grades of steel pipe according to different standards including ASTM A252, ASTM A53, A106, A523, API 5L, and CSA Z245.1. The grades specify minimum yield strengths ranging from 30,000 to 70,000 psi and minimum tensile strengths ranging from 48,000 to 82,000 psi. Higher grades have higher minimum strength requirements. The document also discusses ordering "quad stencilled" pipe that meets the requirements for A53B, A106B, API 5L B, and CSA Z245.1 Grade 290 cat I to satisfy multiple standards with one inventory item.

    As an example, the company I work for is a distributor of steel pipe, flanges and fittings. When we order pipe of this type, we order it "quad stencilled", which means it complies with and is certified to all of the following: A/SA 53B A/SA106B API5L B CSA Z245.1 Grade 290 cat I Because these standards are so similar, it is easy to make one piece of pipe that will satisfy the requirements of all. It is far more efficient for us to do this than carry seperate inventories of each A53B, A106B, API 5L B and CSA. A couple of notes to go with this. A106B pipe is, be definition, seamless, whereas, A53B, API 5L B and CSA can be either seamless OR welded. So, when we order quad stencilled pipe, is has to be seamless. Also, the spec for CSA is higher than for the ASTM/ASME and API grades, but CSA is a requirement for a number of our customers, which is why we add that on.
