Advantage | Description |
---|---|
High Strength | ASTM A210/A210M pipes have good tensile and yield strength. For example, Grade A has a minimum tensile strength of 415 MPa (60 ksi) and a minimum yield strength of 240 MPa (35 ksi), which enables them to withstand high internal pressure and external loads in boiler and superheater applications. |
Good Ductility | With a minimum elongation in 2 in. or 50 mm of 30% for both grades, these pipes possess excellent ductility. This allows them to deform to a certain extent without cracking, enhancing their resistance to mechanical stress and thermal expansion and contraction. |
Reliable Corrosion Resistance | The chemical composition of ASTM A210/A210M pipes, such as the appropriate content of carbon, manganese, silicon, etc., endows them with a certain degree of corrosion resistance. They can resist the corrosion of certain media in the working environment of boilers and superheaters, prolonging the service life of the pipes. |
Excellent Weldability | These pipes have good weldability, which facilitates the installation and connection in practical engineering. They can be welded firmly with other components, ensuring the integrity and reliability of the pipeline system. |
Cost - effectiveness | Compared with some high - alloy steel pipes, ASTM A210/A210M pipes have a relatively lower cost while meeting the basic performance requirements. They offer a cost - effective solution for many steam - generating plants, helping to control project costs. |
Standardized Production | Produced in accordance with the ASTM A210/A210M standard, these pipes have strict quality control and standardized dimensions and performance. This ensures the consistency and interchangeability of the pipes, making it convenient for users to select and use. |
