DIN 17174-85 SEAMLESS CIRCULAR TUBES MADE FROM STEELS WITH LOW TEMPERATURE SERVICE

The subclauses marked with a single dot give specifications which are to be agreed upon at the time of ordering.
The subclauses marked with a two dots give specifications which optional and may be agreed upon at the time of ordering.

1. Field of application
1.1 This standard applies to welded circular tubes made carbon and alloy steels with low temperature toughness, as listed in table1, for low temperature applications. These tubes
are predominantly used in the construction of chemical plant, vessels, pipework and for general mechanical engineering purposes.
Note. Weded fine grain steel tubes (see DIN 1178) and welded stainless austenitic steel tubes (see DIN17457) are also used for low temperature applications.
1.2 If tubes complying with the requirements of this standard are intended for use in installations subject to regular inspection, the specifications in the relevant codes of practice
shall be taken into consideration, e.g. the Technische Regeln Druckbehalter (Technical rules for pressure vessels). Merkblatter) (Instruction sheets of the pressure vessels Study
Grop) (AD Instruction sheets).
Techniscne Regeln fur brennbare Flussigkeiten (Technical rules on combustible liquids), Technische Regeln Druckgase Technical rules on pressure gases).
The same applies for other fields of application for which additional specifications exist.
symbol or material number identifying the steel grade (see table 1).
Example:
A welded tube conforming to this standard, with an outside diameter of 168.3 mm and a wall thickness of 4.0 mm as specified in DIN 2458, made from TTSt 36 stell (material
number 1.0356), in the quenched and tempered condition (V) shall be designated as follows:
Tube DIN 2458 - 168.3 X 4.0
DIN 17174 - TTSt 35 V
or
Tube DIN 2458 - 168.3 X 4.0
DIN 17174 - 1.0356 V
4.2 ● In addition to the standard designation as specified in subclause 4.1, the order shall always give the quantity required (e.g. total length to be supplied), the type of length
(see table 5), the length of the individual tube in the case of specified lengths and exact lengths, the test class, the type of document on materials testing as specified in DIN 50
049 and the technical rule which may also be taken into consideration.
Example of an order:
1000m of tube DIN 2458 - 168.3 X 4.0

2) N = normalized; V = quenched and tempered; NG = normalized starting product, weld only normalized (see subclause 5.2.1.1.1 b)).

3) Tempering can occasionally be necessary after normalizing. In this case, the manufacturer shall inform the purchaser, and shall indicate to him the tempering

temperature.

4) If this is permitted by the dimensions, normalizing (N), with additional tempering as necessary, may be carried out at the manufacturer's discretion instead of quenching

and tempering (V). The purchaser shall be informed if this is the case.

The chemical composition of the steels determined in the cast analysis 1) shall be as specified in table 1, Slight deviations from these values are permitted after consultation of,
and agreement by the purchaser provided that the mechanical and technological properties of the tubes conform to this standard and weldability is not impaired.
