(Specification)Standard Specification for Electric-Resistance-Welded Coiled Steel Tubing for Gas and Fuel Oil Lines (Withdrawn 2004)
Standard Specification for Electric-Resistance-Welded Coiled Steel Tubing for Gas and Fuel Oil Lines (Withdrawn 2004)
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers one grade of electric-resistance-welded coiled steel tubing 2 3/8 in. (60.3 mm) and under in outside diameter and 0.035 to 0.125 in. (0.89 to 3.18 mm), inclusive, in average wall thickness. The tubing is intended for conveyance of gas and fuel oil.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This specification covers one grade of electric-resistance-welded coiled steel tubing 23/8 in. (60.3 mm) and under in outside diameter and 0.035 to 0.125 in. (0.9 to 3.2 mm), inclusive, in nominal wall thickness. The tubing is intended for conveyance of gas and fuel oil.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee A01 on Steel, Stainless Steel, and Related Alloys, this Specification was withdrawn in March 2004.
