- A53 Grade B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A53 Certified
- 60,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled black pipe is manufactured from carbon steel to meet ASTM A53 Grade B standards for pressure and mechanical use. The 'black' designation refers to the dark iron oxide scale left on the surface, which provides minimal corrosion protection. It is easily welded, bent, and flanged, making it a cost-effective choice for conveying gas, air, steam, and non-potable water.
As a medium-sized pipe, the 1-1/2 inch NPS is frequently used for plumbing mains, fire sprinkler systems, and structural handrails. Its balance of strength, flow capacity, and weight makes it ideal for building support posts, scaffolding, and general-purpose industrial piping.
