Single- or Double-Welded Austenitic Stainless Steel Pipe
This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 813/A 813M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.
A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
