A53B Hot Rolled Black Pipe - 5" NPS Schedule 40 x 252"
This 5" NPS Schedule 40 black pipe is a versatile and economical carbon steel product ideal for structural use and fluid conveyance. Manufactured to ASTM A53 Grade B standards, it provides a minimum 60,000 PSI tensile strength and excellent weldability for fabrication. In stock Los Angeles.
- A53B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A53 Certified
- 60,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled black pipe is named for the dark iron oxide scale left on its surface during manufacturing, which provides minor, temporary corrosion resistance. This A53 Grade B pipe is engineered for coiling, bending, and flanging, making it a reliable choice for plumbing, fire sprinkler systems, and low-pressure steam, gas, and air lines. Its excellent weldability simplifies fabrication.
As a large-diameter pipe, this 5-inch Schedule 40 size is specified for heavy-duty applications. It is commonly used for main water lines in commercial plumbing, high-volume industrial process piping, and as structural columns or supports in building construction where significant load-bearing capacity is required.

How to Measure
Steel pipe is measured by its Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) and Schedule. NPS is a standard reference, not the actual diameter. The Schedule number (e.g., Sch 40) determines the wall thickness.
Example: To order this pipe, specify "Black Pipe, 5" NPS, Schedule 40 x 21 ft length".
