Materials and Manufacture
Manufacture—The pipe shall be made by the seamless or welding process with the addition of no filler metal in the welding operation.
Heat Treatment:
Normalize by heating to a uniform temperature of not less than 1500°F [815°C] and cool in air or in the cooling chamber of an atmosphere controlled furnace.
For the seamless process only, reheat and control hot working and the temperature of the hot-finishing operation to a finishing temperature range from 1550 to 1750°F [845 to 945°C] and cool in air or in a controlled atmosphere furnace from an initial temperature of not less than 1550°F [845°C].
The test pieces shall be gradually and uniformly heated to the prescribed temperature, held at that temperature for a period of time in accordance with Table 1, and then furnace cooled at a temperature not exceeding 600°F [315°C]. Grade 8 shall be cooled at a minimum rate of 300°F [165°C]/h in air or water to a temperature not exceeding 600°F [315°C].

Note:The preceding table gives the computed minimum elongation values for each 1⁄32in. [0.80mm] decrease in wall thickness. Where the wall thickness lies between two values shown above, the minimum elongation value is determined by the following equation:
| Grade | Direction of Test | Equation |
| 3 | Longitudinal | E = 48t + 15.00 [E = 1.87t + 15.00] |
| Transverse | E = 32t + 10.00 [E = 1.25t + 10.00] | |

where: E = elongation in 2 in. or 50 mm, in %, and t = actual thickness of specimen, in. [mm]. |

Impact Requirements
For Grades 1 the notched-bar impact properties of each set of three impact specimens, including specimens for the welded joint in welded pipe with wall thicknesses of 0.120 in. [3 mm] and larger, when tested at temperatures in conformance with 14.1 shall be not less than the values prescribed in Table .

Workmanship, Finish and Appearance
The pipe manufacturer shall explore a sufficient num- ber of visual surface imperfections to provide reasonable assurance that they have been properly evaluated with respect to depth. Exploration of all surface imperfections is not required.
Surface imperfections that penetrate more than 12½ % of the nominal wall thickness or encroach on the minimum wall thickness shall be considered defects.
To provide a workmanlike finish and basis for evalu- ating conformance, the pipe manufacturer shall remove by grinding the following:
Mechanical marks, abrasions and pits, any of which imperfections are deeper than 1⁄16 in. [1.6 mm], and
Visual imperfections commonly referred to as scabs, seams, laps, tears, or slivers found by exploration in accor- dance with 10.1 to be deeper than 5 % of the nominal wall thickness.
Mechanical Testing
Sampling—For mechanical testing,
Transverse or Longitudinal Tensile Test and Flattening Test
Hydrostatic Test
Impact Test—One notched bar impact test, consisting of breaking three specimens, shall be made from each heat represented in a heat-treatment load on specimens taken from the finished pipe. This test shall represent only pipe from the same heat and the same heat-treatment load, the wall thick- nesses of which do not exceed by more than 1⁄4 in. [6.3 mm] the wall thicknesses of the pipe from which the test specimens are taken. If heat treatment is performed in continuous or batch- type furnaces controlled within a 50°F [30°C] range and equipped with recording pyrometers so that complete records of heat treatment are available, then one test from each heat in a continuous run only shall be required instead of one test from each heat in each heat-treatment load.
Impact Tests (Welded Pipe)—On welded pipe
Impact Test
Except when the size of the finished pipe is insufficient to permit obtaining subsize impact specimens, all material furnished to this specification and marked in accordance shall be tested for impact resistance at the minimum temperature for the respective grades as shown in Table .

Hydrostatic or Nondestructive Electric Test
Each pipe shall be subjected to the nondestructive electric test or the hydrostatic test.
Nondestructive Electric Test—Nondestructive electric tests shall be in accordance with Specification A 999/A 999M, with the following addition:
If the test signals were produced by visual imperfec- tions (listed in D), the pipe may be accepted based on visual examination, provided the imperfection is less than 0.004 in. (0.1 mm) or 12½ % of the specified wall thickness(whichever is greater).
D:
Visual Imperfections: Scratches, Surface roughness, Dings, Straightener marks, Cutting chips, Steel die stamps, Stop marks, or Pipe reducer ripple.
