ASTM A179 is a standard specification for seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes, primarily used in tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer equipment.
The tubes are produced through a seamless process and are cold-drawn to achieve precise dimensions and a smooth finish.
These tubes are commonly employed in heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer apparatuses due to their excellent thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance.
ASTM A179 is a standard specification for seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes used in tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar applications.
The ASTM A179 tubes are produced through a cold-drawing process, which helps to improve their dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
ASTM A179 are widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, medical, food, light industry, machinery, instrument, include industrial pipeline and mechanical structure parts, etc.
ASTM A179 covers minimum-wall thickness, seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for tubular, heat exchanger, condensers, and other heat transfer services. seamless ASTM A 179 steel tube is supplied and produced by cold drawning method. Chemical composition contains carbon, manganese, phosphorus, and sulfur.
ASTMA179/ASME SA179 standard is applicable for steel pipes together with outside diameter of 1/8in-3in. (32 mm to 76.2 mm). Our rolling technology has reached the international advanced spot. JST is able to manufacture cold drawn seamless steel tubes with uniform wall depth. Their tolerance is relatively smaller standard your own.
When seamless carbon steel pipes are during the last cold drawing procedure, they will enter micro oxidization and non-oxidation heat treatment furnace for thermal treatment (Temperature is 1200℉ (650℃) if not more.). This makes the surface of cold drawn seamless steel tubes match the no oxide scale standards, and guarantees smooth surface and stable performance.
JST adopts professional hardness testing equipment to find out the hardness of seamless carbon steel pipes. The Rockwell hardness value not able to exceed 72 HRB.
Top rated program customers' requirements, we can analyze the cold drawn seamless steel tube advertise its chemical composition meet standards. We choose one from 250 pipes or select one in a furnace to investigate. If the product analysis fails, then choose another two seamless carbon steel pipes. All elements of two steel pipes tend to be in accordance with standards, and then these pipes can be delivered.

A cold-drawn seamless tube is a cylindrical product made by pulling a solid metal billet through a piercing rod to create a hollow tube with no seams or welds.
This seamless construction distinguishes it from other types of tube, such as welded or hot-rolled tube. The absence of seams enhances the tube's structural integrity and resistance to various stresses, making it an ideal choice for critical applications.
Cold-drawn seamless tubes have excellent tilt deformation characteristics, allowing them to withstand bending and forming without compromising their structural integrity. This feature is essential in applications where the tubes need to conform to specific shapes or curves.
These tubes are renowned for their exceptional stiffness, making them suitable for applications where stability and resistance to deformation under heavy loads are critical. Industries such as construction and automotive benefit greatly from this property.
The tubes have low elongation, meaning they don't stretch easily under load. This property is particularly beneficial in high pressure environments where tubes must retain their original dimensions.
Impact resistance is another notable feature of these tubes. They can withstand sudden shock and vibration, making them ideal for transport applications such as railways and automotive components.
Thick-walled and shaped seamless steel tubes are our advantage products which can be customized according to customers' needs
The absence of seams and welds contributes to the high crack resistance of cold-drawn seamless tubes. This makes them less susceptible to fatigue and failure, ensuring long-term performance in critical applications.

Alloy steel pipes are engineered for high-temperature, high-pressure and corrosive service where carbon steel cannot deliver sufficient strength or long-term reliability.
By incorporating Cr, Mo, Ni and other alloying elements, these pipes provide excellent resistance to oxidation, creep and corrosion—making them ideal for critical power, petrochemical and refining systems.

Steel pipe delivery status(condition): cold / hard (BK), cold / soft (BKW), after cold stress relief annealing (BKS), annealing (GBK), normalized (NBK).
| Term | Symbol | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Cold-finished/hard (cold-finished as-drawn) | BK | No heat treatment after the last cold-forming process. The tubes therefore have only low deformability. |
| Cold-finished/soft (lightly cold-worked) | BKW | After the last heat treatment there is a light finishing pass (cold drawing). With proper subsequent processing, the tube can be cold-formed (e.g. bent, expanded) within certain limits. |
| Annealed | GBK | After the final cold-forming process the tubes are annealed in a controlled atmosphere or under vacuum. |
| Normalized | NBK | The tubes are annealed above the upper transformation point in a controlled atmosphere or under vacuum. |
The general cold strip mills, volume should go through continuous annealing (CAPL unit) to eliminate cold hardening and rolling stress, or batch annealing reach the mechanical properties of the corresponding standard specifies. Cold rolled steel surface quality, appearance, dimensional accuracy better than hot-rolled plate, and right-rolled thin product thickness is about 0.18mm, so the majority of users favor.
Cold rolled steel coil substrate products deep processing of high value-added products. Such as electro-galvanized, hot dip galvanized, electro-galvanized fingerprint resistant, painted steel roll damping composite steel, PVC laminating steel plates, etc., so that the excellent quality of these products has a beautiful, high resistance to corrosion, has been widely used.
Cold rolled steel coil finishing after annealing, cut the head, tail, trimming, flattening, smooth, heavy volume, or longitudinal clipboard. Cold-rolled products are widely used in automobile manufacturing, household electrical appliances, instruments, switches, buildings, office furniture and other industries. Steel plate strapping package weight of 3 to 5 tons. Flat sub-volume typically 3 to 10 tons / volume. Coil diameter 6m.
Bare packing/bundle packing/crate packing/wooden protection at the both sides of tubes and suitably protected for seaworthy delivery or as requested.
There are probably hundreds of different methods for packing a pipe, and most of them have merit, but there are two principles that are vital for any method to work: prevent rusting and sea transportation security.
Our packing can meet any needs of the customers.
