A53 Grade B Galvanized Pipe - 3" NPS Schedule 40
This 3" NPS Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity. Conforming to ASTM A53 Grade B, it features a 60,000 PSI tensile strength, ideal for main water lines, industrial process piping, and structural applications like columns and handrails. In stock Los Angeles.
- A53 Grade B Steel Construction
- ASTM A53 Certified
- 60,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance
Galvanized pipe is carbon steel that has been hot-dipped in a protective zinc coating per ASTM A53 standards. This process creates a durable, sacrificial barrier that prevents rust and corrosion, significantly extending the pipe's service life in outdoor or high-moisture environments. It offers a minimum tensile strength of 60,000 PSI, excellent weldability, and consistent pressure ratings for long-term reliability.
As a large-diameter pipe, this 3" NPS Schedule 40 size is ideal for demanding applications. It is commonly used for main water supply lines, industrial process piping, structural columns in buildings, heavy-duty scaffolding, and protective barriers where high strength and volume are required.

Target Users
Pipefitters, structural engineers, fabricators, and construction contractors rely on A53B Galvanized Pipe for its durability and corrosion resistance in projects throughout the Los Angeles area.
Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot-dip galvanized finish, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant zinc coating. This is the primary surface treatment. The pipe can be painted, but requires a specific primer designed to adhere to zinc surfaces. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom coating inquiries.
How to Measure
Pipe is measured by its Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) and Schedule. NPS is a North American standard for pipe sizes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. Schedule refers to the wall thickness; a higher schedule number means a thicker wall.
Example: To order this pipe, specify "Galvanized Pipe, 3 inch NPS, Schedule 40".
