Scope | |||||||||||
This specification establishes the requirements for seamless copper-nickel pipe and tube in straight lengths, suitable for general engineering purposes. The alloys involved are copper alloys UNS Nos. C70400, C70600, C70620, C71000, C71500, C71520, and C72200. Copper alloys UNS Nos. C70620 and C71520 are intended for product that will be subsequently welded. Units—The values stated in inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The following safety hazard caveat pertains only to the test methods described in the Test Methods section of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. |

Materials and Manufacture | |||||||||||
Materials—The material of manufacture shall be cast billets of copper alloys UNS Nos. C70400, C70600, C70620, C71000, C71500, C71520, and C72200 as specified in the ordering information and shall be of such quality and sound-ness as to be suitable for processing into finished lengths or coils of tube to meet the properties prescribed herein. Manufacture—The product shall be manufactured by such hot extrusion or piercing and subsequent cold working and annealing as to produce a uniform, seamless wrought structure in the finished product. |
|||||||||||
Chemical Composition | |||||||||||
The material shall conform to the chemical composition requirements prescribed for the copper alloy UNS No. designation specified in the ordering information. These composition limits do not preclude the presence of other elements. By agreements between the manufacturer or supplier and purchaser, limits may be established and analysis required for unnamed elements. For alloys in which copper is specified as “remainder,” copper is the difference between the sum of results for all of the elements determined and 100 %. When all of the elements are determined, the sum of results shall be as shown below: |

For all other tube no Rockwell hardness values shall apply. Rockwell hardness tests shall be made on the inside surface of the tube. When suitable equipment is not available for determining the specified Rockwell hardness, other Rockwell scales and values may be specified subject to agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser. C Although no minimum grain size is specified, the product must nevertheless have fully recrystallized grain structure. |

Nondestructive Test Requirements | |||||||||||
Electromagnetic (Eddy Current) Test: Each tube up to and including 3.125-in. [80-mm] nominal outside diameter shall be subjected to an eddy current test. Testing shall follow the procedures of Practice E 243 and the Test Methods section of this specification. The provisions for the determination of “end- effect” in Practice E 243 shall not apply. Hydrostatic Test Alternative—As an alternative to the eddy current test for tubes of diameters above 1.25 in. [32 mm], the manufacturer shall have the option to perform the hydrostatic test to the method in the Test Methods section. The tested tubes, which do not actuate the signaling device of the testing unit, shall be considered as conforming to the requirements of the test. Either notch depth or drilled hole standards shall be used. Notch depth standards shall be 22% of the wall thickness. The sizes of drilled hole standards. Hydrostatic Test: When specified in the contract or purchase order, or as an alternate to the eddy current test for tubes above 1.25 in. [32 mm] in diameter (see 12.1.1.2), each tube shall stand, without showing evidence of leakage, an internal hydrostatic pressure sufficient to produce a fiber stress of 7000 psi [48 MPa] as determined by the following equation for thin hollow cylinders under tension: P = 2St/D – 0.8t) where: P = hydrostatic pressure, psi [MPa]; t = wall thickness of the material, in. [mm]; D = outside diameter of the material, in. [mm]; and S = allowable stress of the material, psi [MPa]. The tube need not be subjected to a pressure gage reading over 1000 psi [7 MPa] unless specifically stipulated in the contract or purchase order. When the hydrostatic test is specified for tubes of less than 0.50 in. [12 mm] in outside diameter and less than 0.060 in. [1.5 mm] in wall thickness, the manufacturer shall have the option to perform either the hydrostatic test to the requirements specified in 12.2 or the pneumatic test to the requirements specified in 12.3. Pneumatic Test—When specified in the contract or purchase order, each tube shall be subjected to a minimum internal air pressure of 60 psig [415 kPa] for 5 s without showing evidence of leakage. |
