Description / Abstract:
This specification2 covers several grades, designated
T1, T1a, T1b, T2, T11, T12 and T22, of minimum-wall-thickness,
electric-resistance-welded, carbon-molybdenum and
chromium-molybdenum alloy-steel, boiler and superheater
tubes.
The tubing sizes and thicknesses usually furnished to this
specification are 1⁄2 to 5 in. [12.7 to 127
mm] in outside diameter and 0.035 to 0.320 in. [0.9 to 8.1 mm],
inclusive, in minimum wall thickness. Tubing having other
dimensions may be furnished, provided such tubes comply with all
other requirements of this specification.
Mechanical property requirements do not apply to tubing smaller
than 1⁄8 in. [3.2 mm] in inside diameter or 0.015 in. [0.4 mm] in
thickness.
An optional supplementary requirement is provided for
non-destructive examination for certain ASME
applications.
The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to
be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each
system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall
be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two
systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets.
The inch-pound units shall apply unless the "M" designation of
this specification is specified in the order.

Code.
