This standard applies to new construction and covers pressure-temperature ratings, dimensions, dimensional tolerances, materials, nondestructive examination requirements, testing, and marking for cast, forged, and fabricated flanged, threaded, and welding end and wafer or flangeless valves of steel, nickel-base alloys, and other alloys shown in Table 1.
Wafer or flangeless valves, bolted or through-bolt types, that are installed between flanges or against a flange are treated as flanged-end valves. Alternative rules for NPS 2½ and smaller valves are given in Mandatory Appendix V.
B16.36 - 2006 ORIFICE FLANGES
This Standard covers flanges (similar to those covered in ASME B16.5) that have orifice pressure differential connections.
Coverage is limited to the following: (a) welding neck flanges Classes 300, 400, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500 (b) slip-on and threaded Class 300.
B16.47 - 2006 LARGE DIAMETER STEEL FLANGES: NPS 26 THROUGH NPS 60 METRIC/INCH STANDARD
This Standard covers pressure-temperature ratings, materials, dimensions, dimensional tolerances, marking, and testing for pipe flanges in sizes NPS 26 through NPS 60 and in ratings Classes 75, 150, 0300, 400, 600, and 900. Flanges may be cast, forged, or plate (for blind flanges only) materials, as listed in Table 1A. Requirements and recommendations regarding bolting and gaskets are also included.
B16.48 - 2005 LINE BLANKS
This Standard covers pressure-temperature ratings, materials, dimensions, dimensional tolerances, marking, and testing for operating line blanks in sizes NPS 1/2 through NPS 24 for installation between ASME B16.5 flanges in the 150, 300, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500 Pressure Classes. The dimensions are suitable for blanks made of materials listed in Table 1.
B16.5 - 2003 PIPE FLANGES AND FLANGED FITTINGS: NPS 1/2 THROUGH 24
This Standard covers pressure-temperature ratings, materials, dimensions, dimensional tolerances, marking, testing, and methods of designating openings for pipe flanges and flanged fittings.
Included are: flanges with rating class designations 150, 300, 400, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500 in sizes NPS 1/2 through NPS 24, with requirements given in both metric and U.S.
Customary units with diameter of bolts and flange bolt holes expressed in inch units; flanged fittings with rating class designation 150 and 300 in sizes NPS 1/2 through NPS 24, with requirements given in both metric and U.S.
Customary units with diameter of bolts and flange bolt holes expressed in inch units; and flanged fittings with rating class designation 400, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500 in sizes NPS 1/2 through NPS 24 that are acknowledged in Annex G in which only U.S. Customary units are provided.
This Standard is limited to flanges and flanged fittings made from cast or forged materials, and blind flanges and certain reducing flanges made from cast, forged, or plate materials.
Also included in this Standard are requirements and recommendations regarding flange bolting, flange gaskets, and flange joints.
B16.9 - 2007 FACTORY-MADE WROUGHT BUTTWELDING FITTINGS
This Standard covers overall dimensions, dimensional tolerances, ratings, testing, and markings for wrought carbon and alloy steel factory-made buttwelding fittings of NPS 1/2 through 48. It covers fittings of any producible wall thickness. This standard does not cover low pressure corrosion resistant buttwelding fittings. See MSS SP-43, Wrought Stainless Steel Butt-Welding Fittings.
B1.20.1 - 1983 PIPE THREADS, GENERAL PURPOSE, INCH
This American National Standard covers dimensions and gaging of pipe threads for general purpose applications.B1.20.1 is a revision and redesignation of ANSI B2.1-1968.
B1.20.2M - 2006 PIPE THREADS, 60 DEG. GENERAL PURPOSE (METRIC)
ASME B.1.20.2M-2006; Pipe Threads, 60 deg, General Purpose (Metric) Standard is a metric conversion of the widely accepted ASME B1.20.1-1983; Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch) Standard NPT Taper Pipe Threads. The ASME B1 Standards Committee prepared this metric translation in order to encourage global use and acceptance of the NPT Pipe Thread. For ease of use, product threads and gauging are contained in the Standard. There are no changes to the thread or gage designs.
B36.10M - 2004 WELDED AND SEAMLESS WROUGHT STEEL PIPE
This standard covers the standardization of dimensions of welded and seamless wrought steel pipe for high or low temperatures and pressures. The word pipe is used as distinguished from tube to apply to tubular products of dimensions commonly used for pipeline and piping systems. Pipe NPS 12 (DN 300) and smaller have outside diameters numerically larger than corresponding sizes. In contrast, the outside diameters of tubes are numerically identical to the size number for all sizes.
B36.19M - 2004 STAINLESS STEEL PIPE
This Standard covers the standardization of dimensions of welded and seamless wrought stainless steel pipe. The word pipe is used as distinguished from tube to apply to tubular products of dimensions commonly used for pipeline and piping systems. Pipe dimensions of sizes 12 and smaller have outside diameters numerically larger than the corresponding size. In contrast, the outside diameters of tubes are numerically identical to the size number for all sizes. The wall thicknesses for sizes 14 through 22 inclusive of Schedule 10S, for size 12 schedule 40S, and for sizes 10 and 12 of schedule 80S are not the same as those of ANSI/ASME B36.10M. The suffix "S" in the Schedule Number is used to differentiate B36.19M pipe from B36.10M pipe. ANSI/ASME B36.10M includes other pipe thicknesses which are also commercially available with stainless steel material.
