ASTM A 135-89a / ASME SA 135-89a 

Pipe Steel Electric Fusion(ARC) Welded 

This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 135; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscript epsilon ( ε) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval. This specification has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense. Consult the DoD Index of Specifications and Standards for specific year of issue which has been adopted by the Department of Defense.
1.Scope 

1.1 This specification covers two grades of electric-resistance-welded steel pipe in NPS 2 TO NPS 30 inclusive, with nominal (average) wall thickness up to 0.500 in. ( 12.70 mm), inclusive, and in nominal sizes 3/4 to 5 in. (19 to 127 mm) inclusive with nominal (average) wall thickness 0.083 in. (2.11 mm) to 0.314 in. (3.40 mm), depending on size.Pipe having other dimensions 9Note 1) may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other requirements of this specification. 

The pipe in intended for conveying liquid, gas, or vapor; and only Grade A is adapted for flanging and bending (Note 2). The suitability of pipe for various purposes in somewhat dependent upon its dimensions, properties, and conditions of service, so that the purpose for which the pipe is intended should be stated in the order.

T he pipe may be furnished either nonexpanded or cold expanded, the amount of expansion shall not exceed 
1.5? of the outside diameter pipe size. 

NOTE 1? A comprehensive listing of standardized pipe dimensions is contained in ANSI B36.10.
NOTE 2? This provision is not intended to prohibit the cold bending of Grade B pipe.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard.

Note-The above table gives the computed minimum eiongation values for each 1/32-in. (0.79-mm) decrease in wall thickness. Where the wall thickness lies between two vallues shown above. the minimum elongation value is determined by the following equation: 
Grade Equation
A E = 56t + 17.50
B E = 48t + 15.00

where:
E = elongation in 2 in. (50 mm), %, and t = actual thickness of spectimen, in.

Table of Minimum Wall Thickness on Inspection for Nominal (Average) Pipe Wall Thicknesses


Note 1-The following equation, upon which this table is based, may be applied to calcalate minimum wall thickness from nominal (average) wall thickness:

tn X 0.875 = tm where
tn=nominal (average) wall thickness, in., and 
tm=minimum wall thickness,in. 

The wall thickness is expressed to three decimal places, the fourth decimal place being carried forward or dropped, in accordance with Practive E 29.

Note 2-This table covers some wall thicknesses associated with standard pipe sizes but is not meant to imply that these are the only thicknesses obtainable under this specification.
