ASTM A106 Standard Specification

ASTM A106 Standard Specification

The ASTM A106 standard outlines the requirements for seamless Carbon Steel pipes designed for high-temperature applications. These pipes are commonly used in industries such as refineries and boiler plants, where they must withstand high temperatures and pressures while transporting gases or liquids. Pipes manufactured according to this specification are expected to be suitable for various forming processes, including bending, flanging, and welding.
