  • Lengths: 5 to 7 meters, 9 to 13 meters, single and double random lengths

Comparison of A106 Grade C with Other Grades

Property Grade A Grade B Grade C
Tensile Strength (min) 48,000 psi 60,000 psi 70,000 psi
Yield Strength (min) 30,000 psi 35,000 psi 40,000 psi
Heat Treatment Not required Normalized Full annealing or normalizing

Grade C offers the highest strength among A106 grades, making it suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.

Quality Standards and Testing for A106 Grade C Pipes

A106 Grade C pipes adhere to ASTM A106 / ASME SA106 standards and undergo various tests:

  1. Tensile strength testing
  2. Chemical composition analysis
  3. Hydrostatic testing
  4. Non-destructive testing
