Historical Standard: ASTM A333/A333M-99 Standard Specification for Seamless and Welded Steel Pipe for Low-Temperature Service
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM A333 / A333M
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers nominal (average) wall seamless and welded carbon and alloy steel pipe intended for use at low temperatures. Several grades of ferritic steel are included as listed in Table 1. Some product sizes may not be available under this specification because heavier wall thicknesses have an adverse affect on low-temperature impact properties.
1.2 Supplementary Requirement S1 of an optional nature is provided. This shall apply only when specified by the purchaser.
1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the 'M' designation of this specification is specified in the order.
Note 1-The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) has been substituted in this standard for such traditional terms as 'nominal diameter,' 'size,' and 'nominal size.'
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
