Introduction to ASTM B861 for seamless titanium pipes

ASME SB 861 / ASTM B861, Standard Specification for Titanium and Titanium Alloy Seamless Pipe, ASTM B861 Grade 2 Titanium Pipe is primarily used in heat exchangers in chemical processing due to the superior corrosion resistance of titanium. Covers the requirements for 34 grades of titanium and titanium alloy seamless pipes for general corrosion resistance and high temperature applications.
