Material Specifications (Based on IS 3589)
While the full material specifications require a detailed review of the IS 3589 standard, these pipes are typically manufactured from mild steel. The standard outlines specific grades of steel with requirements for their chemical composition and mechanical properties.
| Steel Grade | Method of Manufacture | C Max | Mn Max | P Max | S Max | CE Max |
| Fe330 | Seamless (S) | 0.16 | 1.2 | 0.04 | 0.04 | – |
| Fe330 | Welded (ERW) | 0.16 | 1.2 | 0.04 | 0.04 | – |
| Fe410 | Seamless (S) | 0.2 | 1.3 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.45 |
| Fe410 | Welded (ERW) | 0.2 | 1.3 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.45 |
| Fe450 | Seamless (S) | 0.25 | 1.2 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.45 |
| Fe450 | Welded (ERW) | 0.25 | 1.2 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.45 |
| Fe450 | Welded (SAW) | 0.25 | 1.3 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.45 |
Physical Testing Standards (According to IS 3589)
IS 3589 also lays down the procedures for various physical tests to ensure the quality and performance of these pipes. These tests may include:
- Hydrostatic Test: To check for leakage under pressure.
- Tensile Test: To determine the yield strength and tensile strength of the steel.
- Bend Test: To assess the ductility of the pipe.
- Flattening Test: To evaluate the weld and the material’s resistance to deformation.
| Steel Grade | Method | Rm Tensile Strength MPa Min | Re Yield Stress MPa Min | A Elongation Percent GL5.65 sqrt(So) Min |
| Fe330 | ERW, Seamless and SAW | 330 | 195 | 20 |
| Fe410 | ERW, Seamless and SAW | 410 | 235 | 18 |
| Fe450 | ERW, Seamless and SAW | 450 | 275 | 15 |
