ASTM A106 Grade B Pipe supplier

What is A106 Pipes?

A106 Pipe is the black carbon steel pipe (killed carbon steel pipe) for high-temperature and high-pressure service.
These A106 Seamless Pipes are available in three grades A, B, and C of varying strength. ASTM/ASME A-106/SA-106
grade seamless pipes is one of our most widely used grade of carbon steel and is readily available ex-stock for all
standard thicknesses up to SCH160. NPS 1-1/2 and under may be either hot finished or cold drawn. NPS 2 and larger
shall be hot finished unless otherwise specified. Surface finish standards are outlined in the specification. ASTM A106
Grades A and ASTM A106 B are obtainable in most sizes and schedule numbers, SA106 Grade B permits higher carbon
and manganese contents than Grade A. The A106 Grade B Pipe supplied by ASTM Seamless Pipes has a maximum
carbon content of 0.23%.

ASTM A106 killed carbon steel

If no free Oxygen is found in the steel pipe then it’s called "Killed Carbon Steel". Grade A106 Pipes must be produced
with killed steel used for High-Temperature Service. Semi-Killed Carbon Steel means that these pipes are partially
deoxidized and some free Oxygen is still found in the steel. Properties of semi-killed steel in between fully killed and
rimmed steel.

ASTM A106 Grade B Pipe at Steel Tubes India

ASTM A106 Grade B Pipe (A106M - 18) is a Standard Specification for Seamless Carbon Steel Pipe for High-
Temperature Service. ASTM A106 pipe is always produced by the seamless method and can be bent, coiled and
flanged. In sizes less than 2" is it usually produced as a cold drawn product. 2" and up are usually hot finished. SA106
pipe is intended for use in high temperature applications. General characteristics steel seamless pipe grade A106 /
A106M. - is steel for high temperature service, it is a steel that enables bending, welding and flanged among other
operations. ASTM A106 Grade B or P265GH is a weldable pressure vessel and boiler steel grade pipe used by the
world's industrial fabricators.
Steel Tubes India is a Govt recognized exporter of a wide range of ASTM A106 Welded Pipe, ASTM A106 Spiral welded
pipe, ASTM A106 welded steel pipe, ASTM A106 continuous welded pipe, ASTM A106 seam welded pipe, ASTM A106
furnace welded pipe, ASTM A106 double welded pipe and ASTM A106 longitudinal welded pipes in India. This ASTM
A106 Grade B Carbon Steel Welded Pipe is typically more cost effective than ASTM A106 seamless pipe. SA106
Welded pipes are usually more readily available than SA106 seamless pipe. The longer lead time required for ASTM
A106 Gr. B Seamless Pipe can not only make timing problematic, but it also allows more time for the price of the
materials to fluctuate. If you are looking for ASTM A106 Grade B Pipe Suppliers in India, Steel Tube India is the most
prominent manufacturer and supplier for more than 2 decades.
