Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

M.3.3  Pipe manufacturing
M.3.3.1  SMLS pipe
SMLS pipe shall be manufactured from continuously (strand) cast or ingot steel. If the process of cold
finishing followed by normalizing (N) or quench and tempering (Q) is used, this shall be stated in the
inspection document. The as-rolled (R) pipe forming processes (see Table 3) shall not be used.
M.3.3.2  Welded pipe
M.3.3.2.1  Unless otherwise agreed, coil and plate used for the manufacture of welded pipe shall be
rolled from continuously (strand) cast or pressure cast slabs. The pipe shall be SAWH, SAWL, COWH,
COWL, or HFW in the N or M delivery conditions (see Table 3) only.
For HFW pipe from hot-rolled coil, the pipe forming process “cold forming followed by thermomechanical
forming” (see Table 3) shall not be used.
M.3.3.2.2  For HFW pipe, the abutting edges of the coil or plate shall be sheared, milled or machined
before welding such that the edges are clean and free of damage.
M.3.3.2.3  If agreed, for helical seam pipe made from coil or plate, pipe containing coil/plate end welds
may be delivered, provided that such welds are located at least 300 mm (11.8 in) from the pipe end
and such welds have been subjected to the same non-destructive testing that is required in M.7.5 for
coil/plate edges and welds.
M.4  Acceptance criteria
M.4.1  Chemical composition
M.4.1.1  For pipe with t ≤ 25,0 mm (0.984 in), the chemical composition for standard grades shall be as
given in Table M.1. Intermediate grades are not allowed. The steel name shall be as given in Table M.1
and consists of an alphanumeric designation that identifies the strength level, followed by a suffix
that consists of a letter (N, Q, or M) that identifies the delivery condition and a second letter (E) that
identifies the pipe as manufactured to the requirements of this annex.
M.4.1.2  For pipe with t > 25,0 mm (0.984 in) up to 40 mm (1.575 in), the chemical composition shall be
as agreed, with the requirements given in Table M.1 being amended as appropriate.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally
carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a
technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee.
International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in
the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all
matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. www.iso.org/directives

M.3.3 Pipe manufacturing
M.3.3.1 SMLS pipe
SMLS pipe shall be manufactured from continuously (strand) cast or ingot steel. If the process of cold
finishing followed by normalizing (N) or quench and tempering (Q) is used, this shall be stated in the
inspection document. The as-rolled (R) pipe forming processes (Table 3) shall not be used.
M.3.3.2 Welded pipe
M.3.3.2.1 Unless otherwise agreed, coil and plate used for the manufacture of welded pipe shall be rolled
from continuously (strand) cast or pressure cast slabs. The pipe shall be SAWH, SAWL, COWH, COWL, or
HFW in the N or M delivery conditions (Table 3) only.
For HFW pipe from hot-rolled coil, the pipe forming process 'cold forming followed by
thermomechanical forming' (Table 3) shall not be used.
M.3.3.2.2 For HFW pipe, the abutting edges of the coil or plate shall be sheared, milled or machined before
welding such that the edges are clean and free of damage.
M.3.3.2.3 If agreed, for helical seam pipe made from coil or plate, pipe containing coil/plate end welds may
be delivered, provided that such welds are located at least 300 mm (11.8 in) from the pipe end and such
welds have been subjected to the same non-destructive testing that is required in M.7.5 for coil/plate edges
