4 Classification and Code
4.1 Naming method of steel grade
Steel grades are named according to the specified minimum upper yield strength
values, which are divided into 355, 380, 420, 460, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700.
4.2 Classification and code of steel tube precision level
4.2.1 The steel tubes are classified and coded according to the precision level of the
outer diameter (side length) as follows:
a) Ordinary level: PD (P A/B).a;
b) Higher-level: PD (P A/B).b;
c) Advanced level: PD(P A/B).c.
4.2.2 The steel tubes are classified and coded according to the wall thickness precision
level as follows:
a) Ordinary level: PT.a;
b) Advanced level: PT.c.
4.2.3 The steel tubes are classified and coded according to the precision level of
bending degree are as follows:
a) Ordinary level: PS.a;
b) Higher-level: PS.b;
c) Advanced level: PS.c.
4.2.4 The steel tubes are classified and coded according to the prevision level of side
roughness:
a) Ordinary level: PF.a;
b) Advanced level: PF.c.
5 Ordering Content
The contract or order for ordering steel tubes according to this Document shall include
the following:
a) The number of this Document;
b) Product name;
c) Steel designation (the designation determined through the negotiation between
the supplier and the purchaser on the steel grade);
d) Size specifications (for shaped steel tubes: side length × side length × wall
thickness; round steel tubes: nominal outer diameter × nominal wall thickness,
in millimetres);
e) The ordered quantity (total weight or total length);
f) Special requirements.
6 Size, Shape, Weight and Allowable Deviation
6.1 Dimensions and allowable deviation
6.7.1 Delivery weight
Steel tubes are delivered according to actual weight. If it is stated in the contract, the
steel tubes can also be delivered according to the theoretical weight.
6.7.2 Calculation of theoretical weight
With the density of steel of 7.85kg/dm3, the calculation of the theoretical weight per
unit length of round steel tubes shall comply with the provisions of GB/T 21835; and
the theoretical weight per unit length of the shaped steel tubes shall comply with the
provisions of GB/T 6726.
6.7.3 Allowable deviation of weight
The allowable deviation between the actual weight and the theoretical weight of the
delivered steel tube is ±5%. According to the request of the purchaser, after negotiation
between the supplier and the purchaser and indicated in the contract, other allowable
deviations of weight can be specified.
7 Technical Requirements
7.1 Designation and chemical composition of steel
7.1.1 The steel grade and chemical composition (melting analysis) of the steel shall
comply with the provisions of Table 8. The supplier and the purchaser shall determine
the steel designation through negotiation on the steel grade when ordering. According
to the requirements of the buyer, after negotiation between the supplier and the
purchaser and indicated in the contract, steel tubes of other strength grades and/or
chemical compositions can be supplied.
7.1.2 The allowable deviation of the chemical composition of the finished steel tube
shall comply with the provisions of GB/T 222.
7.6.1 Flattening
7.6.1.1 The round steel tube shall be subjected to a flattening test. The length of the
flattened sample shall be no less than 63.5mm. The weld-seams of the two samples
shall be located at 90° and 0° from the direction of force. The sample shall be pressed
until the distance between the two plates is 2/3 of the outer diameter of the steel tube.
After the test, the sample should not show cracks or clefts.
7.6.1.2 Shaped steel tubes shall be subjecte...
