Material Overview & Specifications
ASTM A106 Grade B is the benchmark specification for seamless carbon steel pipe engineered for high-temperature and high-pressure service in power stations, oil refining units, and industrial steam boilers. API 5L Grade B (PSL-1 & PSL-2) governs steel pipe suitable for the transportation of oil, gas, and hydrocarbon slurries in pipeline transportation systems. Our pipes feature dual certification (ASTM A106 Gr B / API 5L Gr B) to afford maximum versatility across structural and process piping designs.
Our comprehensive size range extends from 1/2 inch NB through 24 inches NB in seamless execution, across schedules ranging from standard weight (STD / SCH 40) up to extra heavy (XS / SCH 80), Schedule 160, and double extra strong (XXS). Pipes are supplied with black rust-preventative varnish, beveled ends for butt-welding, and heavy plastic end protectors.
Quality assurance at Tatvam Overseas Inc encompasses rigorous third-party inspection compliance, hydrostatic pressure testing up to 3000 PSI, non-destructive ultrasonic and eddy current examination, and full heat traceability. Every pipe length is continuously stenciled and delivered with authentic EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificates and optional NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 sour service compliance.
