ASTM F1083-06

Standard Specification for Pipe, Steel, Hot-Dipped Zinc-Coated (Galvanized) Welded, for Fence Structures

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers hot-dipped galvanized welded steel pipe in NPS 1 (Note 1) to NPS 8, inclusive, with nominal (average) wall thickness as given in Table 1 and Table 2. Pipe having other dimensions (Note 0) may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification. Pipe ordered under this specification is intended for use as a structural support for fencing in accordance with Specification F 1043, Group 1A.Note 1
The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) has been substituted in this specification for such traditional terms as nominal diameter, size, and nominal size.Note 2
A comprehensive listing of standardized pipe dimensions is contained in ANSI B 36.10.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in brackets are for information only.
