Where can I find pressure ratings of carbon steel pipes, both seamless and welded?
I found from the net some tables. Strange thing from these tables is that whereas some plastic pipes show pressure , carbon steel pipes eg ASTM 53 and 106B show relatively lesser capacities. Is this possible? I mean you easily find a small diameter pipe rated as PN16 (metric= 160MPa= 23ksi capacity) but you have trouble finding a similar rating for even seamless carbon steel pipe.
I will appreciate a well shared knowledge and references. Metric or US customary units are both fine.
