Tolerances:
1. Outside Diameter : As per the above table
2. Thickness : ±10%. for M and H series & Type L
: -8% with the plus tolerance limited by the mass tolerance, for
Types L1 and L2.
3. Weight : ±7.5% on bundles of 10 tons or more, for M and H series and Type L

Technical Data of Pipes Conforming to BS EN 10255:2004+A1:2007 for Non-alloy steel tubes
suitable for welding and threading.
5. Ends : Cut cleanly and nominally square with the axis of the tube and free
from excessive burrs.
6. Chemical Composition (max %) : C -0.20%, Mn -1.40%, S -0.030% & P -0.035%
7. Mechanical Properties : Tensile Strength : 320 to 520 N/mm²,

placed alternately at 00 or 900 to the direction of the force. For Weld
Test - Flatten up to 75% of original dia of the tube. No cracks in the
weld. For Material other than Weld-Flatten up to 60% of original tube
OD. No cracks in the metal other than in the weld.
9. Leak Tightness test
: Online NDT (Eddy Current) OR
a)
: Hydro testing at pressure as per above table and holding time
b) min. 5 second.
