Designation:F115510(Reapproved 2015)An American National StandardStandard Practice forSelection and Application of Piping System Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1155;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice is intended as a guide to shipbuilders,shipowners,and design agents for use in the preparation ofpiping system material schedules for commercial ship designand construction.1.2 The materials and limitations listed in Tables 1-28 meetthe minimum requirements of the U.S.Coast Guard and theAmerican Bureau of Shipping and,except for titanium,shouldbe considered to be the minimum acceptable materials inregard to material,design,and testing.This document is notintended to limit the selection of material strictly to thoselisted.Other equal or superior materials may be used providedthat they are acceptable to the regulatory bodies and classifi-cation societies.NOTE1Titanium has been added as its use in fresh and sea watersystems is becoming more common.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A53/A53M Specification for Pipe,Steel,Black and Hot-Dipped,Zinc-Coated,Welded and SeamlessA105/A105M Specification for Carbon Steel Forgings forPiping ApplicationsA106/A106M Specification for Seamless Carbon Steel Pipefor High-Temperature ServiceA134 Specification for Pipe,Steel,Electric-Fusion(Arc)-Welded(Sizes NPS 16 and Over)A139/A139M Specification for Electric-Fusion(Arc)-Welded Steel Pipe(NPS 4 and Over)A178/A178M Specification for Electric-Resistance-WeldedCarbon Steel and Carbon-Manganese Steel Boiler andSuperheater TubesA179/A179M Specification for Seamless Cold-Drawn Low-Carbon Steel Heat-Exchanger and Condenser TubesA181/A181M Specification for Carbon Steel Forgings,forGeneral-Purpose PipingA182/A182M Specification for Forged or Rolled Alloy andStainless Steel Pipe Flanges,Forged Fittings,and Valvesand Parts for High-Temperature ServiceA192/A192M Specification for Seamless Carbon SteelBoiler Tubes for High-Pressure ServiceA193/A193M Specification for Alloy-Steel and StainlessSteel Bolting for High Temperature or High PressureService and Other Special Purpose ApplicationsA194/A194M Specification for Carbon Steel,Alloy Steel,and Stainless Steel Nuts for Bolts for High Pressure orHigh Temperature Service,or BothA213/A213M Specification for Seamless Ferritic and Aus-tenitic Alloy-Steel Boiler,Superheater,and Heat-Exchanger TubesA214/A214M Specification for Electric-Resistance-WeldedCarbon Steel Heat-Exchanger and Condenser TubesA216/A216M Specification for Steel Castings,Carbon,Suit-able for Fusion Welding,for High-Temperature ServiceA234/A234M Specification for Piping Fittings of WroughtCarbon Steel and Alloy Steel for Moderate and HighTemperature ServiceA242/A242M Specification for High-Strength Low-AlloyStructural SteelA249/A249M Specification for Welded Austenitic SteelBoiler,Superheater,Heat-Exchanger,and CondenserTubesA283/A283M Specification for Low and Intermediate Ten-sile Strength Carbon Steel PlatesA307 Specification for Carbon Steel Bolts,Studs,andThreaded Rod 60 000 PSI Tensile StrengthA320/A320M Specification for Alloy-Steel and StainlessSteel Bolting for Low-Temperature ServiceA335/A335M Specification for Seamless Ferritic Alloy-Steel Pipe for High-Temperature ServiceA351/A351M Specification for Castings,Austenitic,forPressure-Containing PartsA387/A387M Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates,AlloySteel,Chromium-MolybdenumA395/A395M SpecificationforFerriticDuctileIronPressure-Retaining Castings for Use at Elevated Tempera-tures1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F25 on Ships andMarine Technology and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F25.11 onMachinery and Piping Systems.Current edition approved May 1,2015.Published June 2015.Originallyapproved in 1988.Last previous edition approved in 2010 as F1155 10.DOI:10.1520/F1155-10R15.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 A515/A515M Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates,Car-bon Steel,for Intermediate-and Higher-Temperature Ser-viceA536 Specification for Ductile Iron CastingsA563 Specification for Carbon and Alloy Steel NutsB61 Specification for Steam or Valve Bronze CastingsB62 Specification for Composition Bronze or Ounce MetalCastingsB88 Specification for Seamless Copper Water TubeB265 Specification for Titanium and Titanium Alloy Strip,Sheet,and PlateB338 Specification for Seamless and Welded Titanium andTitanium Alloy
