ASME SA423 GR.1 Low Alloy Steel Welded Tube For Boiler And Superheater

ASME SA423 GR.1 Low Alloy Steel Welded Tube For Boiler and Superheater Application

ASME SA423 Grade 1 Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) tube is a low-alloy steel tube that is manufactured using the electric resistance welding process. This type of tube is part of the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) SA423 specification, which deals with low-alloy steel tubes that are intended for use in applications that require resistance to atmospheric corrosion. It is also designed for high-temperature and high-pressure service, particularly in boilers and heat exchangers.

Key Features:

1. Material Composition:

2. Mechanical Properties of ASME SA423 Grade 1 ERW Tubes

3. Standards & Specifications:

• ASME SA423: Standard specification for seamless and welded low-alloy steel tubes for boilers and superheaters.
• Grade 1: A specific grade under this standard, optimized for high-temperature service.
• Complies with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) Section II for material properties.

4. Testing & Inspection:

• Hydrostatic testing, ultrasonic testing (UT), or eddy current testing to ensure weld integrity.
• Chemical and mechanical property verification per ASTM/ASME standards.

5. Advantages of SA423 Grade 1 ERW Tubes

Comparison with Other Grades:

SA423 Grade 1 vs. SA213 T11/T22: While SA213 covers similar Cr-Mo alloys, SA423 Grade 1 is specifically for ERW tubes, offering a balance of performance and affordability.
