Designation: A 671 – 06
Standard Specification for
Electric-Fusion-Welded Steel Pipe for Atmospheric and
Lower Temperatures1
This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 671; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope*
1.1 This specification2 covers electric-fusion-welded steel
pipe with filler metal added, fabricated from pressure vessel
quality plate of several analyses and strength levels and
suitable for high-pressure service at atmospheric and lower
temperatures. Heat treatment may or may not be required to
attain the desired properties or to comply with applicable code
requirements. Supplementary requirements are provided for
use when additional testing or examination is desired.
1.2 The specification nominally covers pipe 16 in. (405
mm) in outside diameter or larger and of 1⁄4 in. (6.4 mm) wall
thickness or greater. Pipe having other dimensions may be
furnished provided it complies with all other requirements of
this specification.
1.3 Several grades and classes of pipe are provided.
1.3.1 Grade designates the type of plate used as listed in 5.1.
1.3.2 Class designates the type of heat treatment performed
during manufacture of the pipe, whether the weld is radio-
graphically examined, and whether the pipe has been pressure
tested as listed in 1.3.3.
1.3.3 Class designations are as follows (Note 1):

5. Materials and Manufacture
5.1 Materials—The steel plate material shall conform to the
requirement of the applicable plate specification for the pipe
grade ordered as listed in Table 1.

cally by an electric process involving the deposition of filler
metal.
5.2.3 As welded, the welded joint shall have positive
reinforcement at the center of each side of the weld, but no
more than 1⁄8 in. (3.2 mm). This reinforcement may be removed

shall be smooth and the deposited metal shall be fused
smoothly and uniformly into the plate surface.
5.2.4 When radiographic examination in accordance with
9.1 is to be used, the weld reinforcements shall be governed by
the more restrictive provision UW–51 of Section VIII of the

7.3 Analysis may be taken from the mechanical test speci-
mens. The results of the analyses shall be reported to the
purchaser.
8. Mechanical Requirements
8.1 Tension Test:
8.1.1 Requirements——Transverse tensile properties of the
welded joint shall meet the minimum requirements for ultimate
tensile strength of the specified plate material. In addition for
Grades CD and CJ, when these are of Class 3x, 4x, or 5x, and
Grade CP of Class 6x and 7x, the transverse tensile properties
of the base plate shall be determined on specimens cut from the
heat-treated pipe. These properties shall meet the mechanical
test requirements of the plate specification.
8.1.2 Number of Tests—One test specimen of weld metal
and one specimen of base metal, if required by 8.1.1, shall be
made and tested to represent each lot of finished pipe.
8.1.3 Test Specimen Location and Orientation—The test
specimens shall be taken transverse to the weld at the end of
the finished pipe and may be flattened cold before final
machining to size.
8.1.4 Test Method—The test specimen shall be made in
accordance with QW-150 in Section IX of the ASME Boiler
and Pressure Vessel Code. The test specimen shall be tested at
room temperature in accordance with Test Methods and Defi-
nitions A 370.
8.2 Transverse Guided Weld Bend Test:
8.2.1 Requirements—The bend test shall be acceptable if no
cracks or other defects exceeding 1⁄8 in. (3.2 mm) in any
direction are present in the weld metal or between the weld and
the base metal after bending. Cracks that originate along the
edges of the specimen during testing, and that are less than 1⁄4
in. (6.4 mm) measured in any direction shall not be considered.
8.2.2 Number of Tests—One test (two specimens) shall be
made to represent each lot of finished pipe.
8.2.3 Test Specimen Location and Orientation—Two bend
test specimens shall be taken transverse to the weld at the end
of the finished pipe. As an alternative, by agreement between
the purchaser and the manufacturer, the test specimens may be
taken from a test plate of the same material as the pipe, the test
plate being attached to the end of the cylinder and welded as a
prolongation of the pipe longitudinal seam.
8.2.4 Test Method—The test requirements of A 370, S9.1.7
shall be met. For wall thicknesses over 3⁄8 in. (9.5 mm) but less
than 3⁄4 in. (19.0 mm) side-bend tests may be made instead of
the face and root-bend tests. For wall thicknesses 3⁄4 in. and
over both specimens shall be subjected to the side-bend test.
8.3 Pressure Test—Classes X2 and X3 pipe shall be tested
in accordance with Specification A 530/A 530M, Section 6.
9. Radiographic Examination
9.1 The full length of each weld of Classes X1 and X2 shall
be radiographically examined in accordance with and meet the
requirements of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,
Section VIII, Paragraph UW–51.
9.2 Radiographic examination may be performed prior to
heat treatment.
10. Rework
10.1 Elimination of Surface Imperfections—Unacceptable
surface imperfections shall be removed by grin
