PN-EN 10216-2, DIN 17175 Pipes for pressure purposes with specified elevated temperature properties. Boiler tubes

Boiler tubes are used in heat exchange appliances in which the energy is transferred from one medium to the other. The pipes are manufactured from carbon and low-alloy steel grades which are resistant to loads under high pressure and temperatures. They are used for the construction of power engineering appliances such as: boilers, heating coils, stoves, heaters, heat exchangers.

The pipes are manufactured with the diameters between 21,3 – 660 mm and with the wall thickness of up to 100 mm in the case of hot rolling, and with the diameters between 10,2 – 108 and with the wall thickness of up to 12,5 mm in the case of cold drawing. The pipes are manufactured with TC1 tests (I requirement level) and TC2 (III requirement level) according to PN-EN10216-2.

Dimensions and tolerances Details: Table 2
Pipe lengths Pipes with precise lengths are manufactured with the following tolerance values:
  • for pipes 0- 6m -0/+10%
  • for pipes 6-12m -0/+15%
  • for pipes longer than 12m -0/to be negotiated
Tightness Pipes should be subject to water testing (7Mpa) or electromagnetic testing.
Straightness < 0,0015 of pipe length (below 3mm per every meter of pipe length)
