Standards are essential for defining all the fundamental characteristics that must be considered in the production and use of carbon steel tubes.
These regulations ensure quality, safety, and compliance or a wide range of applications, from the construction sector to industrial use.
So, why are they so important? What do they define?
Strength : They establish the strength requirements for carbon steel tubes, ensuring resistance to static or elastic stresses.
Chemical Composition: They specify the chemical composition of various steels, defining the percentage levels of elements that make up a specific type of steel.
Mechanical Properties: They outline the requirements for the mechanical properties of products, including tensile strength, yield strength, fracture resistance, elongation, and resilience when applicable.
Control Procedures: They define the necessary control procedures to demonstrate product compliance with the applicable standards.
Safety: By prescribing the characteristics that products must meet, standards are fundamental in ensuring design and production align with safety objectives.
Quality: By setting technical and dimensional specifications for steel products, standards allow for the evaluation of performance and longevity of what is built using them.
Warranty: The use of products that comply with the relevant standards helps mitigate predictable risks of future damage or legal consequences.
