This standard covers products made from high-alloy nickel-based materials, including UNS N06600, N06601, N06603, N06025, N06045, N06690, and N06693, ensuring their reliability in both cryogenic and extremely high-temperature environments.<\/p>\n<p>EV Group China supplies tubular products that meet the following dimensional characteristics:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Outside diameter: 1\/8 to 5 inches (range 3.18\u2013127 mm).<\/li>\n<li>Wall thickness: 0.015 to 0.500 inches (range 0.38\u201312.70 mm).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Geometric parameters of the products are regulated by the additional requirements of the ASTM B751 specification. EV Group China has the technical capability to supply tubes with non-standard dimensions, provided that all other requirements of this standard are fully met.<\/p>\n<p>The document adopts the inch-pound system of units as the primary standard for the specification. Values in parentheses are SI reference data and do not serve as regulatory indicators.<\/p>\n<p>The standard does not cover industrial safety protocols for the operation of finished assemblies. Necessary precautions and handling rules for the material are documented in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), provided by EV Group China for each batch of products.<\/p>\n<p><b>Notes:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><sup>a<\/sup> Identification of alloy grades is performed in strict accordance with the UNS numbering system (ASTM E527 and SAE J1086).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":[],"wiki_category":[112],"class_list":["post-70200","wiki","type-wiki","status-publish","hentry","wiki_category-astm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wiki\/70200","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wiki"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/wiki"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wiki\/70200\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70200"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"wiki_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evgroupchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wiki_category?post=70200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
