ASTM A193
Scope
Originally approved in 1936, this specification is heavily utilized in petroleum and chemical construction applications. The ASTM standard covers alloy steel and stainless steel bolting materials for high temperature service. This specification includes fasteners intended for use in pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings. Although, this material is often available in national coarse (UNC) thread pitches, if being used in traditional applications, threads are specified 8 threads per inch (tpi) for diameters above one inch.
Below is a basic summary of a few of the common grades. ASTM A193 covers a number of other standard specifications not covered in this description including B5, B6, and B16.

MIT graduate course taught by Prof Thomas W Eagar ScD PE. Discusses selection design and processing for structural materials, including casting, forging, rolling, drawing, extrusion, powder consolidation, welding, brazing, soldering, wear, corrosion, non-destructive testing and fracture. Emphasizes the underlying science of a given process rather than a detailed description of the technique or equipment.
Byelorussian Steel Works consists of four main production facilities connected by a single processing chain, namely: steel melting, rolling, steel cord and wire production and pipe-rolling. The plant also includes number of auxiliary divisions and an administrative division.
Steel-melting production includes a scrap preparation shop and two electric steel melting shops. Rolling production consists of a section rolling shop, which includes three rolling mills with different profiles.
Steel cord and wire production is represented by three steel cord and wire shops, a powder metallurgy and die workshop, and a technological packing workshop.
Pipe-rolling production is located in a separate building with area of 40 thousand square meters.
The company’s infrastructure consists of maintenance and repair departments for power, electrical and mechanical equipment, a railway workshop, an automobile workshop and other auxiliary divisions.
