ASTM A 395/A 395M Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Ferritic Ductile Iron Pressure-Retaining Castings for Use at Elevated Temperatures
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Dec 10, 1999
Scope:
This specification covers ductile iron castings for
pressure-retaining parts for use at elevated temperatures. Castings
of all grades are suitable for use up to 450°F. For temperatures
above 450°F and up to 650°F, only Grade 60–40–18 castings are
suitable (Note 1).
Valves, flanges, pipe fittings, pumps, and other piping
components are generally manufactured in advance and supplied from
stock by the manufacturer, jobber, or dealer.
For supplemental casting requirements, Specification A 834 may
be utilized.
The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to
be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each
system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall
be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two
systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
NOTE 1—For service other than as specified in this section,
reference should be made to Specification A 536 for Ductile Iron
Castings.2
