Designation:F201400(Reapproved 2013)An American National StandardStandard Specification forNon-Reinforced Extruded Tee Connections for PipingApplications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2014;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 specification covers the pipe materials and dimen-sions for producing non-reinforced extruded tee connectionsmanufactured by mechanical forming processes.The term“extruded tee connection”applies to butt-weld or socket-weldconnections.This specification refers to the forming processthat leads to welding or brazing.1.2 The non-reinforced extruded pipe tee connection is analternative to the tee fittings,nozzle,and other welded connec-tions.1.3 The non-reinforced extruded pipe tee connection hasbeen widely used for systems in the marine,process piping,food,pharmaceutical,and similar industries.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.5 The extruded tee connection will be welded in accor-dance with Specification F722.Brazing of tee connections willbe in accordance with ANSI B31.5.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A53/A53M Specification for Pipe,Steel,Black and Hot-Dipped,Zinc-Coated,Welded and SeamlessA106/A106M Specification for Seamless Carbon Steel Pipefor High-Temperature ServiceA135 Specification for Electric-Resistance-Welded SteelPipeA139/A139M Specification for Electric-Fusion(Arc)-Welded Steel Pipe(NPS 4 and Over)A161 Specification for Seamless Low-Carbon and Carbon-Molybdenum Steel Still Tubes for Refinery(Withdrawn1999)3A178/A178M Specification for Electric-Resistance-WeldedCarbon Steel and Carbon-Manganese Steel Boiler andSuperheater TubesA199/A199M Specification for Seamless Cold-Drawn Inter-mediate Alloy-Steel Heat-Exchanger and CondenserTubes(Withdrawn 1995)3A200 Specification for Seamless Intermediate Alloy-SteelStill Tubes for Refinery Service(Withdrawn 1999)3A209/A209M SpecificationforSeamlessCarbon-Molybdenum Alloy-Steel Boiler and Superheater TubesA210/A210M Specification for Seamless Medium-CarbonSteel Boiler and Superheater TubesA250/A250M Specification for Electric-Resistance-WeldedFerritic Alloy-Steel Boiler and Superheater TubesA252 Specification for Welded and Seamless Steel PipePilesA312/A312M Specification for Seamless,Welded,andHeavily Cold Worked Austenitic Stainless Steel PipesA333/A333M Specification for Seamless and Welded SteelPipe for Low-Temperature ServiceA334/A334M Specification for Seamless and Welded Car-bon and Alloy-Steel Tubes for Low-Temperature ServiceA500 Specification for Cold-Formed Welded and SeamlessCarbon Steel Structural Tubing in Rounds and ShapesA512 Specification for Cold-Drawn Buttweld Carbon SteelMechanical TubingA519 Specification for Seamless Carbon and Alloy SteelMechanical TubingA587 Specification for Electric-Resistance-Welded Low-Carbon Steel Pipe for the Chemical IndustryA589 Specification for Seamless and Welded Carbon SteelWater-Well PipeA672 Specification for Electric-Fusion-Welded Steel Pipefor High-Pressure Service at Moderate TemperaturesB88 Specification for Seamless Copper Water TubeB88M Specification for General Requirements for ChemicalCheck Analysis Limits for Nickel,Nickel Alloys and1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F25 on Shipsand Marine Technology and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F25.11 onMachinery and Piping Systems.Current edition approved May 1,2013.Published May 2013.Originallyapproved in 2000.Last previous edition approved in 2006 as F2014 00(2006).DOI:10.1520/F2014-00R13.2For 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.3The last approved version of this historical standard is referenced onwww.astm.org.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 Cobalt Alloys B0881B280 Specification for Seamless Copper Tube for Air Con-ditioning and Refrigeration Field ServiceB337 Specification for Seamless and Welded Titanium andTitanium Alloy Pipe(Withdrawn 1997)3B338 Specification for Seamless and Welded Titanium andTitanium Alloy Tubes for Condensers and Heat Exchang-ersB466/B466M Specification for Seamless Copper-NickelPipe and TubeB467 Specification for Welded Copper-Nickel PipeF722 Specification for Welded Joints for Shipboard PipingSystems2.2 ANSI Standards:B31.1 Power Piping4B31.3 Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refining Piping4B31.5 Refrigeration Piping4B36.10M Welded and Seamless Wrought Steel Pipe42.3 ISO Standard:ISO-4200 Plain End Steel Tubes,
