The ASTM A672 B60 specification defines the requirements for carbon steel electric fusion welded (EFW) pipes, which are commonly used in high-pressure applications at moderate temperatures. These pipes are manufactured using the electric fusion welding process, with filler metal added, and they are fabricated from pressure vessel-quality plates. Grade and Size Range: The "B60" in ASTM A672 B60 refers to the specific grade of carbon steel used in these pipes. These pipes come in a size range of 16 inches to 120 inches in diameter, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
Chemical Composition: The typical chemical composition for ASTM A672 B60 pipes includes a maximum carbon content of 0.24%, manganese ranging from 0.79% to 1.30%, maximum phosphorus and sulfur content of 0.025%, and a maximum silicon content of 0.55%. Mechanical Properties: The pipes are required to meet certain mechanical properties, including a minimum tensile strength of 60 ksi (414 MPa) and a minimum yield strength of 32 ksi (220 MPa). They should also exhibit a minimum elongation of 23% in 2 inches and have a maximum hardness of HRB 85. Additionally, they should be capable of withstanding impact tests at a minimum temperature of -50°F (-46°C).

Manufacturing and Testing: ASTM A672 B60 pipes are manufactured using the EFW process, and the wall thickness can range from Schedule 10 to Schedule 160. They undergo hydrostatic testing and nondestructive electric tests (such as eddy current or ultrasonic testing) to ensure their quality and integrity. Radiographic examination is optional but may be specified for certain applications. Heat Treatment: The specification does not specify a particular heat treatment, leaving it to the discretion of the manufacturer. Length and Certification: Pipes are available in various lengths, including single random, double random, or custom lengths. Manufacturers are required to provide certification that their products meet the ASTM A672 B60 standard.
