ASTM A209/A209M

ASTM A209/A209M Standard Specification for Seamless Carbon-Molybdenum Alloy-Steel Boiler and Superheater Tubes.

ASTM A209/A209M specification covers seamless carbon-molybdenum alloy-steel boiler and superheater tubes. As a steel making practice, the steel material shall be killed. The required chemical composition for steel is given. The mechanical property requirements include tensile requirements and hardness requirements. Different test procedure shall be performed on the material presented, one tension test shall be made on a specimen for lots of not more than 50 tubes, one flattening test shall be made on specimens from each end of one finished tube, one flaring test shall be made on specimens from each end of one finished tube, and Brinell or Rockwell hardness tests shall be made from two tubes from each lot.

ASTM A209/A209M is the standard specification for seamless carbon-molybdenum alloy-steel boiler and superheater tubes. These tubes are designed for high-pressure, high-temperature environments, offering superior strength and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for industrial applications such as boilers, superheaters, and heat exchangers.

What is a 209 material specification?

Based on the search results, it seems that there is no specific "209 material specification" that is widely recognized or referenced. The term "209" appears in various contexts, including aggregate specifications for construction materials, granular backfill, compression tests of metallic materials, and even elevating devices.

Without more specific information or context, it is difficult to provide a definitive answer regarding a "209 material specification." It is recommended to provide additional details or clarify the specific industry or application you are referring to in order to receive a more accurate response.

Scope

1.1 This specification2 covers several grades of minimum-wall-thickness, seamless, carbon-molybdenum alloy-steel, boiler and superheater tubes.

1.2 This specification covers tubes 1/2 to 5 in. [12.7 to 127 mm] inclusive, in outside diameter and 0.035 to 0.500 in. [0.9 to 12.7 mm], inclusive, in minimum wall thickness.

1.3 An optional supplementary requirement is provided and, when desired, shall be so stated in the order.

1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M” designation of this specification is specified in the order.

1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

Tests

  • Flattening Test – One flattening test shall be made on specimens from each end of one finished tube, not the one used for the flaring test, from each lot.
  • Flaring Test – One flaring test shall be made on specimens from each end of one finished tube, not the one used for the flattening test, from each lot.

Materials and Manufacture:

  • The Steel shall be killed.
  • The Tubes shall be made by the seamless process and shall be either hot-finished or cold finished, as specified.
  • Heat Treatment – Hot-finished tubes shall be heat treated at a temperature of 1200 °F [650 °C] or higher. Cold- finished tubes shall, after the final cold finishing, be heat treated at a temperature of 1200 °F [650 °C] or higher, or tubing may be furnished in the full-annealed, isothermal annealed, or normalized and tempered condition. If furnished in the normalized and tempered condition, the minimum tempering temperature shall be 1200 °F [650 °C].

Note:

  • Mill test certificates will be issued according to EN10204.3.
  • All tubes shall be supplied as per applicable ASTM A209 /A209M Specification.

【H】 Ceramic lined pipe

Ceramic lined pipe is made through self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) technique.

【H】 Cast basalt lined steel pipe

Cast basalt lined steel pipe is composed by lined with cast basalt pipe, outside steel pipe and cement mortar filling between the two layers.
