Testing
|
Inspection test pressures produce a stress in the pipe wall equal to 60% of specified minimum yield strength (SMYS) at room temperature. Maximum Pressures are not to exceed 2500 psi for NPS3 and under 2800 psi for the larger sizes. Pressure is maintained for not less than 5 seconds.
|
Mechanical Tests Specified
|
Tensile Test -- NPS 8 and larger -- either transverse or longitudinal acceptable
|
Smaller than NPS 8 -- weighed in lots. Larger sizes -- by length.
|
Flattening Test -- NPS 2-1/2 and larger.
|
Bending Test (Cold) -- NPS 2 and under.
