ASTM A520 Grade A, Grade B, Grade C High Temperature Steel Pipe
Introduction
ASTM A520 is a specification that covers seamless carbon steel tubular products designed for high-temperature service. These pipes are essential in various industries, including power generation, petrochemical, and oil and gas, where high-temperature and high-pressure conditions are prevalent.
Material
The material used for ASTM A520 pipes is carbon steel, which is known for its strength and durability. The specific grades (A, B, and C) indicate different chemical compositions and mechanical properties, making them suitable for various applications.
Specification
ASTM A520 specifies the requirements for seamless carbon steel pipes intended for high-temperature service. The pipes must meet specific standards for chemical composition, mechanical properties, and manufacturing processes.
Key Features
- High-Temperature Resistance: Designed to withstand elevated temperatures.
- Seamless Construction: Provides uniform strength and eliminates weak points.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for various industries, including oil and gas, power generation, and chemical processing.

| B | 0.20 max | 0.30 - 0.60 | 0.035 max | 0.035 max | 0.10 - 0.40 | 0.20 max | 0.10 max |
| C | 0.25 max | 0.30 - 0.60 | 0.035 max | 0.035 max | 0.10 - 0.40 | 0.20 max | 0.10 max |
Mechanical Properties
| Grade | Yield Strength (ksi) | Tensile Strength (ksi) | Elongation (%) | Hardness (HB) |
| A | 30 | 60 - 80 | 20 | 120 max |
| B | 35 | 70 - 90 | 20 | 130 max |
| C | 40 | 80 - 100 | 20 | 140 max |
Steel Grade
The ASTM A520 specification includes three grades:
- Grade A: Suitable for moderate high-temperature applications.
- Grade B: Designed for higher strength requirements.
- Grade C: Offers the highest strength and is suitable for the most demanding applications.
Application
ASTM A520 pipes are widely used in:
- Power plants
- Oil refineries
- Chemical processing plants
- High-temperature industrial applications
Possible Alternative Grades
While ASTM A520 is specifically designed for high-temperature service, alternative grades may include:
- ASTM A106: Standard Specification for Seamless Carbon Steel Pipe for High-Temperature Service.
- ASTM A335: Standard Specification for Seamless Ferritic Alloy-Steel Pipe for High-Temperature Service.
