ASTM A192 High-Pressure Boiler Tube

ASTM A192/A192M (ASME SA-192) covers minimum-wall seamless carbon steel boiler tubes for high-pressure service, OD to 76 mm — the standard carbon boiler tube for superheaters and boiler banks..

Scope

ASTM A192/A192M (ASME SA-192) covers minimum-wall seamless carbon steel boiler tubes for high-pressure service, OD to 76 mm — the standard carbon boiler tube for superheaters and boiler banks.

Mechanical & Performance Requirements

TS min 325 MPa; YS min 180 MPa; elongation min 35% longitudinal; C 0.06–0.18%, Mn 0.27–0.63%. Hardness max 137 HB (Rockwell B 77 equivalent).

Dimensional Tolerances

Minimum-wall basis: wall +20%/−0 above minimum; OD tolerances per A450 tight table (e.g. ±0.10 mm for OD ≤38 mm); flaring/flattening per lot.

NDE & Hydrostatic Testing

100% hydrostatic test; NDE by agreement (ultrasonic per practice E213-family); flattening and flaring tests on each lot per A450.
