Mechanical Properties of ASTM A179/ ASME SA179 Heat Exchanger Tubes :
Tensile Strength (Mpa) | Yield Strength (Mpa) | Elongation(%) | Hardness (HRB) |
≥325 | ≥180 | ≥35 | ≤72 |
Grade and Chemical Composition (%)
C | Si | Mn | P | S | Mo | Cr | V |
0.06-0.18 | / | 0.27-0.63 | ≤0.035 | ≤0.035 | / | / | / |
Specifications of ASTM A179/ ASME SA179 Heat Exchanger Tubes include:
Size Range: The tubes are available in sizes ranging from 1/8" to 3" in outside diameter and from 0.035" to 0.085" in wall thickness.
Material: The tubes are made of low carbon steel with a maximum carbon content of 0.06%, ensuring their excellent ductility and toughness.
Manufacturing Process: The tubes are produced by the cold-drawing process, where the hot-rolled steel is drawn through a die under high pressure, resulting in a smooth and precise cylindrical shape.
Heat Treatment: The tubes are subjected to a final heat treatment process called normalization, which helps to eliminate any internal stresses and improve their mechanical properties.
In terms of advantages, ASTM A179 tubes offer excellent thermal conductivity, which is vital for efficient heat transfer. They also have good corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term durability and reliability in various operating conditions. Moreover, their low carbon content makes them suitable for welding and forming processes.
These tubes undergo several tests to ensure their quality and compliance with ASTM standards. Some common tests include flattening test, flaring test, hardness test, and non-destructive tests like eddy current or hydrostatic testing.
Overall, ASTM A179 seamless steel tubes are widely used in heat exchangers, condensers, and other heat transfer equipment due to their superior thermal properties, corrosion resistance, and high-quality manufacturing standards.
