Detailed Explanation of ASME SB 167 / SB 829 Inconel 718 Seamless Tubes

Detailed Explanation of ASME SB 167 / SB 829 Inconel 718 Seamless Tubes
ASME SB-167 and ASME SB-829 are standards developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for the manufacture, testing, and material requirements of Inconel 718 (UNS N07718) seamless tubing. Inconel 718 is a precipitation-hardening nickel-chromium-iron superalloy known for its high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and high-temperature performance up to 1300°F (704°C).
What are the mechanical properties of Inconel 718?
Properties of Inconel 718
Inconel 718 is a nickel-based superalloy ideal for applications requiring high strength over a temperature range from low temperatures to 1400°F (760°C). Inconel 718 also exhibits excellent tensile and impact strength.

1. Specification Overview
ASME SB-167 / ASTM B167: Standard Specification for Seamless Nickel-CrFe Alloy Tubes. This specification primarily covers alloys such as Nickel-CrFe 600, but is also commonly used for Inconel 718 alloys, especially suitable for high-temperature and corrosion-resistant applications.
ASME SB-829 / ASTM B829: Standard Specification for General Requirements for Seamless Nickel and Nickel Alloy Tubes. This specification outlines the general requirements that ASME SB-167 must meet, such as chemical composition tolerances, sampling, testing, and dimensions.
Material (Inconel 718): Also known as UNS N07718 (material number 2.4668), it is a precipitation-hardening nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum-niobium alloy.

Inconel 718 Seamless Tube Manufacturing Process and Surface Treatment
Process: Seamless, continuous, and homogeneous tubes are produced using extrusion, rotary punching, and cold drawing processes.
Heat Treatment: Solution annealing and aging treatments are used to achieve the required mechanical properties, typically producing "cold-worked annealed" or "hot-finished" products.
Surface Treatment: Annealing and pickling, bright annealing, or cold-drawing surface treatments are typically offered.
