Transcription of Pressure Rating Table for Stainless Steel Tube
1 Pressure Rating Table for Stainless Steel TubeRevised September 2011 Notes to the Table of design converttomultiply bymegapascals (MPa)pounds/sq. inch (psi) (MPa) (MPa)kilograms/mm (kgf/mm ) (MPa) (MPa)kilopascals (kPa)1000 Limitation of LiabilityTheinformationcontainedinthisda tasheetisnotanexhaustivestatementofallre levantinformation. It is a general guide for customers to the products and services available fromAtlas Steels and no representation is made or warranty given in relation to this information orthe products or processes it These design pressures have been calculated using the basic formulas of AS 4041-2006 " Pressure Piping".
2 This code includes provision for various additional factors andmust be consulted as appropriate. Note that tubes to specifications ASTM A213, A249and A269 (and pipe specification A312) are specifically included in AS 4041; othertube specifications (eg ASTM A554 and AS 1528) are not covered by the pressurepiping Pressures are given in megapascals (MPa). Conversions to other units are:1. This data is intended to provide a general guide. It must not be relied upon in theabsence of competent professional Calculations here are for seamless tube to specifications such as ASTM A213. Aweld joint efficiency factor of 85% is usually allowed for standard welded pipe andtube, and allowance made for corrosion or wear loss if Additional factors of safety may need to be applied to the values given in the Table ,depending upon the application The Table gives design pressures at ambient temperature, up to 50 C.
3 Reducedpressures apply at elevated temperatures, which can be calculated using the designstrengths given in AS Reduced pressures must be used for 304L and 316L unless these are "dualcertified" 304/304L and 316/316L Alternative piping codes such as ASME may give different design 1 of 2 ATLAS Rating Table for Stainless Steel TubePressure Rating Table for Stainless Steel TubeRevised September 2011 Stainless Steel GRADE TP304 and TP316 TUBEAS 4041 design pressures at ambient tube certified to ASTM A 213M or tube certified to ASTM A249M (weld joint factor must be applied).DESIGN PRESSURES (MPa)Wall Thickness (mm)(mm)(inch) - refer to the associated Notes to this Table on Page 2 of 2 ATLAS
