Form:

This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of seamless and drawn or welded and drawn tubing.

Application:

This tubing has been used typically in the fabrication of parts requiring good corrosion resistance, but usage is not limited to such applications. This tubing is not suitable for use in applications requiring flaring or sharp bends. Welding or other exposure over 800 °F (427 °C) during fabrication may impair corrosion resistance.

Classification:

Tubing covered by this specification is classified as follows:

Type 1 - Seamless and drawn

Type 2 - Welded and drawn

Unless a specific type is ordered, either Type 1 or Type 2 may be supplied.
