Product Description

 ASTM A192 / ASME SA192 Carbon Steel Boiler Tube Seamless Steel Boiler Tubing

 

 

ASTM A192/ASME SA192 is a single-grade seamless carbon steel boiler tube spec—no Grade B. ASME SA192 is required for ASME code; ASTM-only marking is insufficient. It covers tube OD, not pipe OD, with standard size limits. Chemistry closely matches A179, requires killed steel, has a narrow Mn range, but no impact, hardness, or grain-size requirement. ASME limits service to about 1000°F due to graphitization. Hydrostatic or NDE is manufacturer’s option; flattening is mandatory. Hot-finished tubes need no heat treatment; cold-drawn tubes require stress relief at 1200°F minimum.

 

 

Procurement Checklist

When ordering ASTM A192 bent boiler tubes, provide the following:

  1. Quantity (pieces or meters)

  2. OD and Wall Thickness (e.g., 50.8 mm x 5.0 mm)

  3. Length (straight length or bent drawing)

  4. Bending Details (radius, angle, plane, tolerances)

  5. End Preparation (plain, beveled, threaded)

  6. Certification Requirements (3.1, 3.2, or client-specific)

  7. Packing

 

Comparison with Similar Grades

Grade Standard Key Difference
ASTM A192 Boiler Tubes Low carbon, moderate strength, seamless
ASTM A106 Gr. B Pipe for High Temp Similar chemistry but for piping (larger sizes)
ASTM A179 Heat Exchanger Tubes Cold drawn, lower carbon, tighter tolerances
ASTM A210 Gr. A1 Boiler Tubes Higher carbon, higher strength
EN 10216-2 P235GH European Standard Comparable pressure vessel grade
Tip: A192 is often specified when the application requires a balance of strength, weldability, and code compliance for boiler service.

Testing & inspection

Hydrostatic test OR nondestructive electric test is at the manufacturer’s option. If you require hydrostatic specifically, you must say so. Otherwise you may receive NDE only.

Flattening test is mandatory for A192. Flaring test is not required for A192, but it is required for A179. Dual-certified A179/A192 tubes will therefore have both.

No weld repairs. Because A192 is seamless, welding repair of defects is generally not permitted. Defective sections are cut off or rejected.

NDE method is not fixed. If NDE is used, the manufacturer may choose eddy current or ultrasonic. If you need a specific method, specify it.
