ASTM B466 C70600 Seamless Pipe
This specification covers the requirements for seamless UNS C70400, C70600, C71000, C71500, C71520, and C72200 copper-nickel pipes and tubes in straight lengths suitable for engineering applications. UNS C70620 and C71520 copper alloys are intended for products that are to be welded subsequently. Each product should be manufactured from cast billets by hot extrusion or piercing and then subjected to cold working and annealing. The standard tempers for the products in this specification are soft annealed (O60), light drawn (H55), hard drawn (H80), and hard drawn and end annealed (HE80). Pipe and tube tensile properties, Rockwell hardness, and test performance should conform to the values specified herein. Performance requirements include those from expansion, flattening, and eddy Current tests.

FAQ
Q: Is c70600 susceptible to pitting corrosion?
A: It has good resistance to pitting corrosion in clean seawater. Poor water quality (e.g., sulfide pollution) can increase the risk.
Q: What is the typical wall thickness for condenser tubes?
A: Common wall thicknesses range from 0.71 mm (0.028 inches) to 1.24 mm (0.049 inches), depending on the application.
Q: How to prevent galvanic corrosion when connecting c70600 to other metals?
A: Use insulating fittings or select metals close to c70600 in the galvanic series to minimize the potential difference.
Q: What is the maximum allowable stress for c70600 at elevated temperatures?
A: Refer to ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code for specific values, which decrease as temperature increases.
