GB 18248 specifies the size, shape, weight, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, packaging, marking and quality certificates of seamless steel pipes for gas cylinders and accumulator shells. GB 18248 is suitable for manufacturing seamless steel pipes for gas cylinders and accumulator casings.

Manufacturing: Pipes according to GB/T 6479 should be manufactured by hot rolling or cold drawing.
Heat treatment: Pipes should be produced through heat treatment, WT≤30mm normalizing + tempering, WT>30mm quenching and tempering or normalizing + tempering.
Inspection and testing: chemical composition analysis, tensile test, flattening test, expansion test, impact test, macroscopic inspection, non-metallic inclusions, non-destructive testing, surface inspection, dimensional inspection.
Length: 4000mm; 6000mm; 9000mm; 12000mm; etc.
Maximum unfolded length: 30 meters. U-bend, fin, and nailing processes are also available.
Options: External surface shot blasting to remove scale and matt surface; surface polishing as preparation for further processing (e.g. fin trimming).
