When talked about seamless steel pipe with carbon type, we would take ASTM into account. Today, we would have a list for the comparison for their functions so that we can have a better choice next time when we need to purchase them.
There are ten types of the ASTM seamless carbon steel pipe for various work environment.
ASTM A53: As structural steel or for low-pressure plumbing;
ASTM A106 : Seamless carbon steel pipe for high-temperature service;
ASTM A335 : Seamless ferritic alloy-steel pipe for high-temperature service;
ASTM A213 : Seamless ferritic and austenitic alloy-steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes;
ASTM A179 : Seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel heat-exchanger and condenser tubes;
ASTM A192 : Seamless carbon steel boiler tubes for high-pressure service;
ASTM A210 : Seamless medium-carbon steel boiler and superheater tubes;
ASTM A333 : Seamless steel pipe for low-temperature service and other applications with required notch toughness;
ASTM A519 : Seamless carbon and alloy steel mechanical tubing;
ASTM A252 : Seamless and welded steel pipe piles.
