ASTM A618 / A618M – 2015 Hot-Formed Welded and Seamless High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Tubing
ASTM A618 / A618M covers grades of hot-formed welded and seamless high-strength low-alloy square, rectangular, round, or special shape structural tubing for welded, riveted, or bolted construction of bridges and buildings and for general structural purposes.
These grades are Grade Ia and Ib; Grade II; and Grade III.

| A For each reduction of 0.01 % C below the specified carbon maximum, an increase of 0.05 % manganese above the specified maximum will be permitted up to 1.45 % for the heat analysis and up to 1.50 % for the product analysis. B If chromium and silicon contents are each 0.50 % min, then the copper minimums do not apply. C For Grade III, columbium may be used in conformance with the following limits: 0.005 %, min (heat) and 0.004 %, min (product). |

| A For Grade II, when the material is normalized, the minimum yield strength and minimum tensile strength required shall be reduced by 5 ksi [35 MPa] | ||||||
When the steel is used in welded construction, the welding procedure shall be suitable for the steel and the intended service.
The tubing shall be made by the seamless, furnace-buttwelded (continuous-welded), or hot-stretch-reduced electric-resistance-welded process.
Tensile test and bend test shall be performed for the material to conform to the requirements specified.
If the results of the mechanical tests representing any heat do not conform to a requirement, retests shall be made.
