Description

ASTM A178 / ASME SA178 Gr.A Carbon Steel ERW Tube Heat Exchanger Tube

ASTM A178 /ASME SA178 this specification covers Grade A, C and D material with minimum-wall-thickness. The steel for Grade D shall be killed. carbon steel tubes under this specification shall be made by electric-resistance-welding / ERW process, which used in boiler, superheater, heat exchanger, etc.

Comparison with Other Standards

  • ASTM A192: For seamless boiler tubes, used in higher-pressure applications.

  • ASTM A210: Covers seamless medium-carbon steel tubes, offering higher strength than A178.

  • Grade A vs. Grade D: Grade D has higher carbon content (0.15–0.25%) for increased strength.

For longitudinal strip tests a deduction for each 1 ⁄ 32 in. [0.8 mm] decrease in 1.50A 1.50A wall thickness below 5 ⁄ 16 in. [8 mm] from the basic minimum elongation of the following percentage points shall be made.

Manufacturing Process

  • ERW (Electric Resistance Welding): Sheets of steel are formed into a cylindrical shape, and edges are fused using electrical resistance. This method ensures precise dimensions and cost-effectiveness.

  • Post-Weld Heat Treatment: Often applied to relieve residual stresses and enhance mechanical properties.

Applications

  • Boilers and Superheaters: Designed for high-pressure, high-temperature environments (e.g., power plants, industrial boilers).

  • Heat Exchangers: Efficient thermal performance in HVAC and process industries.

  • Pressure Vessels: Suitable for moderate-stress applications due to ERW integrity.
