ASTM A790 Pipe

ASTM A790 pipe is a special type of stainless steel pipe, whose micro structure is mainly composed of austenite and ferrite. The austenite phase provides good toughness, corrosion resistance, high strength and good processability, while the ferrite phase enhances the steel’s resistance to stress corrosion cracking, thermal conductivity and resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Therefore, duplex stainless steel pipes usually have the characteristics of high strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent welding performance and high thermal conductivity.

Duplex stainless steel pipes also have a lower linear expansion coefficient, which makes it have better dimensional stability at high temperatures. These characteristics make duplex stainless steel pipes widely used in petroleum, chemical, seawater desalination, paper making, and many other industrial fields.

ASTM A790 Pipe Standard

This specification covers seamless and straight-seam welded ferritic/austenitic steel pipe intended for general corrosive service, with particular emphasis on resistance to stress corrosion cracking. These steels are susceptible to embrittlement if used for prolonged periods at elevated temperatures.

 Appendix X1 of this specification lists the dimensions of welded and seamless stainless steel pipe as shown in ANSI B36.19. Pipe having other dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification.

Features

Material Composition: The standard covers duplex stainless steel, which is characterized by a balanced microstructure of austenite and ferrite. This composition offers superior mechanical properties and corrosion resistance compared to standard austenitic stainless steels.

Seamless and Welded: The specification includes both seamless and welded pipes, offering flexibility in manufacturing and application.

Corrosion Resistance: Duplex stainless steel pipes under this specification exhibit excellent resistance to a wide range of corrosive environments, including chlorides and sulfides, making them ideal for use in harsh conditions.

Mechanical Properties: The duplex structure provides high strength and good impact toughness, which is advantageous in many industrial applications.
