While reviewing this Indian Standard in the light of the experience gained during these years, the committee has felt to revise the Same, taking note of the present practices being followed in the country and also overseas standards existing on the subject... In the revision of this indian Standsrd the following main. modifications have been made: a) Requirements for seamless tubes have been included; ) Nominal size has been deleted and only ouside diameter has been retained; 2) One more grade has been added and grade designation have been modified along with requirements for chemical composition and mechanical properties; 4) Product analysis requirements have been added; and 2) Requirements for condition of supply and attening test have been modified. In the formulation of this standard due weightage has been given to international coordination among the standard prevailing in different countries in addition to the practices in the country. This has been met by deriving assistance from tie following publications: 1S0 $59 :4977 Welded of seatmless steel tubes for water, sewage and gas. International : Organization for Standardization.

American Petroleum Institute, SL — 1988 This standard contains clauses 3.3) 41, 6.1, 8.3, 9-14, 123 and 16.2 which call for agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer. For the purpose of deciding whether & particulac requirement of this standard is complied with. the final value observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numnerical values ( revised)’. The number OF significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. 1S 3589: 1991 indian Standard SEAMLESS OR ELECTRICALLY WELDED STEEL PIPES FOR WATER, GAS AND SEWAGE ( 1683 TO 2032 mm OUTSIDE DIAMETER ) — SPECIFICATION ( Second Revision ) 1 SCOPE This standard applies to seamless or electric fusion welded, electric resistance welded and induction welded carbon steel pipes for water, gas.and sewage of outside dianieter from [68'S {o 2.052 mm and having joints with plain or bevelled ends for butt welding or sleeve welded Jo’ ‘swelled and plain end ). 1.1 This standard does not cover steel pipes with sci_ 3d joints and requirements for specials, such’as collars, tees and bends, etc. 2 REFERENCES 2.1 The following Indian Standards are necessary adjuncts to this standard: IS No. i Title 238 Methods of chemical analysis of steels (issued ia various pacts ) 1894: 1972 Methods for tensile testing of steci tubes (first revision ) 3328: 1985 Method for flattening test _on metallic tubes (first revision } 3803: 1974 Method for elongation conversions for steel (first revision ) ATIL: 1974 Method for sampling of ste! pipes. tubes and fittings (frst revision) 4736 +1986 Hot-dip zine costings on mild J steal tubes (first revision ) 95951980 Recommendations for metal are welding of carbon manganese steels 3 TERMINOLOGY For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions shall apply.
