Foreword
This standard, during revision, makes reference to ASTM B861-06a “Titanium
and titanium alloy seamless tubes”.
This standard replaces GB/T 3624-1995 “Titanium and titanium alloy tubes”.
As compared with GB/T 3624-1995, this standard mainly has the following
changes.
- DELETE the relevant content of welded tube and welding-rolling tubes;
- CANCEL the designation TA0. ADD the designations TA3, TA8, TA8-1, TA9-
1 and the related requirements;
- ADJUST the mechanical properties of the tubes of designations TA1, TA2,
TA9, TA10;
- ADJUST the pressure value of the hydraulic test of the tubes of designation
TA10;
- ADD the provisions that “When the tubes of D/t < 10 are subjected to
flattening test, the crack generated at the position corresponding to “6
o’clock” and “12 o’clock” on the inner surface of the tube shall not be used
as the basis for rejection”;
- ADD the provisions on the bending properties of the tubes; the purchaser
may make selection as needed;
- ADD the requirements of the contract (order form).
This standard was proposed by the China Nonferrous Metals Industry
Association.
This standard shall be under the jurisdiction of the National Nonferrous Metals
Standardization Technical Committee.
The responsible drafting organizations of this standard. Bao Titanium Group
Co., Ltd., Baoji Titanium Industry Co., Ltd.
The main drafters of this standard. Yang Yulan, Li Nong, Huang Yongguang, Xu
Zhe, Wang Yongmei, Dai Chun, Wang Weiqi.
This standard replaces the standard previously issued as follows.
- GB/T 3624-1983, GB/T 3624-1995.
Titanium and titanium alloy seamless tubes
1 Scope
This standard specifies the requirements, test methods, inspection rules and
markings, packaging, transport, storage, quality certificate and contract (or
order form) contents of titanium and titanium alloy seamless tubes.
This standard is applicable to titanium and titanium alloy seamless tubes which
are produced by cold rolling (cold drawing) method. It is suitable for general
industrial use.

3 Requirements
3.1 Classification of products
3.1.1 Designation, status and specification of products
t - Nominal wall thickness of the tube, in millimeters (mm);
D - Nominal outer diameter of the tube, in millimeters (mm);
e - Constant, when the tube’s diameter is less than or equal to 25.4 mm, e
takes 0.04; when the tube’s diameter is greater than 25.4 mm, e takes 0.06.
3.4.1.2 When the tubes of D/t < 10 are subjected to flattening test, the crack
generated at the position corresponding to “6 o’clock” and “12 o’clock” on the
inner surface of the tube shall not be used as the basis for rejection.
3.4.2 Hydraulic (pneumatic) pressure test
3.4.2.1 When the purchaser requests and indicates in the contract (or the order
form), the tube shall be subjected to the hydraulic pressure or pneumatic
pressure test. The test method selected by the purchaser shall be indicated in
the contract (or order form). Where it is not indicated in the contract (or the order
form), the supplier may not conduct the test, but must ensure that it meets the
requirements for the minimum hydraulic pressure in 3.4.2.2 or the pneumatic
pressure test in 3.4.2.3.
3.4.2.2 When the hydraulic test is carried out, the test pressure selected by the
purchaser shall be indicated in the contract (or order form). When not specified
in the contract (or order form), the test pressure is calculated according to the
following formula (2).
Where.
p - Test pressure, in Megapascal (MPa);
S - Allowable stress, which takes 50% of the minimum specified non-
proportional extension strength, in Megapascal (MPa);
D - Nominal outer diameter of the tube, in millimeters (mm);
t - Nominal wall thickness of the tube, in millimeters (mm).
When the nominal outer diameter of the tube is not more than 76 mm, the
maximum pressure of the hydraulic test is not more than 17.2 MPa; when the
nominal outer diameter of the tube is greater than 76 mm, the maximum
pressure of the hydraulic test is not more than 19.3 MPa. The pressure shall be
maintained for 5 s during the test, the tube shall be free from distortion or
leakage.
3.4.2.3 During the pneumatic pressure test, the pressure of the internal
use the S8 specimens in GB/T 228. For the tubes which have outer diameter
greater than 35 mm, it shall use the S4 specimen.
4.3 Test method of process performance
4.3.1 Tube’s flattening test shall be carried out according to GB/T 246.
4.3.2 Tube’s hydraulic pressure test shall be carried out according to GB/T 241.
4.3.3 Tube’s pneumatic pressure test shall be carried out according to the
method approved by both parties.
4.3.4 Tube’s bending test shall be carried out according to GB/T 244.
4.4 Measurement method of dimension
The dimensional inspection of the tube is carried out by the use of a gauge of
corresponding accuracy.
4.5 Inspection method of appearance quality
The appearance quality of the tube is checked by visual inspection.
5 Inspection rules
5.1 Inspection and acceptance
5.1.1 The product shall be inspected by the supplier’s quality inspection
department, to ensure that the product’s quality meets the requirements of this
standard or contract (or purchase order). Meanwhile it shall fill in the quality
certificate.
5.1.2 The products received by the purchaser shall be inspected and accepted
according to the provisions of this standard. If the inspection results are
inconsistent with the provisions of this standard, they shall be submitted to the
supplier within three months from the date of receipt of the product, to be settled
by the supplier and the purchaser through negotiation. If arbitration is required,
the arbitration sampling shall be carried out jointly by the supplier and the
purchaser.
5.2 Group-batch
Products shall be submitted for acceptance in batches. Each...
