DIN 1629 Seamless Steel pipe Of Non Alloys Steels are made of unalloyed steels, it's main grades are St 37.0, St44.0, St52.0.
DIN 1629 is a German standard that specifies the requirements for seamless circular steel tubes of non-alloy steels. These tubes are primarily used for mechanical and general engineering purposes, but they are not suitable for heat treatment or pressure purposes. The key points about DIN 1629 include:
DIN 1629 is the standard specifies the Seamless Circular Tubes of Non Alloys Steels with Special Quality Requirements.
DIN 1629 applications the overheated boilers, as minimum thickness ferrite and seamless steel pipes, and as heat exchangers via austenitic pipes.
The standard specifies the outer diameter, wall thickness, and permissible tolerances for the tubes.
The mechanical properties include tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation, which vary according to the material grade.
The steel used must meet specific chemical composition limits, including carbon, manganese, phosphorus, and sulfur content.
Tubes must be manufactured using a seamless process and may be either hot-finished or cold-finished.
Various tests are required to ensure the quality of the tubes, including tensile tests, flattening tests, and hardness tests.
1.1 This standard applies to seamless circular tubes and pipes(hereinafter briefly referred to as "tubes") made of unalloyed steels as listed in table 1. These tubes are predominantly used in the constructin of chemical plant, vessels, pipework and for general mechanical engineering purposes. They are designed to meet high performance requirements. Normally there are no limiting vaiues or the maximum permissible working pressure of these tubes. The permissi l working temperature shall not exceed 300℃ are specified in Appendix A.)
The limits of application and other specifications given in this standard shall apply except in cases here other specifications are contained in codes of practice for specific fields of application, e.g. the Technische Regeln fur Dampfkessel (TRD) (Technical rules on steam boilers) or the Technische Regeln fur Druckbehalter (TRB)
(Technical rules on pressure vessels), AD-Merkblatter (AD Instrucation sheets).
