ASTM WK39705

(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK39705 - Revision of A312 / A312M - 12 Standard Specification for Seamless, Welded, and Heavily Cold Worked Austenitic Stainless Steel Pipes


Active Standard: A312 / A312M - 13

Developed by Subcommittee: A01.10 | Committee A01 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

An inquirer questioned why grain size determinations were addressed in two different sections of the specification, with somewhat different lists of grades in the two locations. This revision removes both text-format lists and replaces them with a single table, and places the test method requirement in the proper section. This arrangement clarifies the requirements and makes easier the adding of more grades to the list requiring grains size determinations.
