What is a Plastic Pipe?

A Plastic Pipe (PIPE,PLASTIC) is a tubular product formed from plastic material. The nominal pipe size and outside diameter conform to iron pipe size designators or the dimensions conform to Standard Thermoplastic Pipe Dimensions Ratio (SDR) Tables. It may have threaded ends or the ends may be capable of being formed by heating. For items not conforming to these dimensioning criteria, see TUBING, NONMETALLIC.

What is a Metal Tube Assembly?

A Metal Tube Assembly (TUBE ASSEMBLY,METAL) is a length of tubing, straight, or prebent to a predetermined angle, with added component(s) that forms an end connection on one or both ends. For flexible tube assemblies, see HOSE ASSEMBLY (as modified). For items having perforations in the tubing or attachments, see TUBE ASSEMBLY, FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM. Excludes items having integral preformed or plain ends, TUBE, BENT (as modified), and items which are branched or forked.

What is a Metallic Pipe?

A Metallic Pipe (PIPE,METALLIC) is a straight, one piece metallic pipe in excess of 12 inches (304 mm) in length. It may have external or internal threads or may be unthreaded. For pipe having external threads 12 inches (304 mm) or less in length see NIPPLE,PIPE. For pipe having internal threads 12 inches (304 mm) or less in lenght see COUPLING,PIPE.

What is a Metallic Tube?

A Metallic Tube (TUBE,METALLIC) is a straight, hollow product, welded or seamless, of round, square, or any other cross section and continuous periphery, which does not conform in cross sectional dimensions to recognized pipe standards, or those in Tables 1 through 10, Appendix C, FIIG A004A. It is designed to convey fluids, gasses, and/or semisolids. It may be rolled into coils for ease in handling. For items designed to join a tube or tube fitting to another tube, pipe, or hose or fitting, see ADAPTER (as modified); COUPLING (as modified); or NIPPLE (as modified). Excludes TUBE, BENT (as modified); PIPE, METALLIC; SPACER, SLEEVE; METAL BAR (hollow); and items with fittings, except end protectors.

What is a Metallic Bent Pipe?

A Metallic Bent Pipe (PIPE,BENT,METALLIC) is a bent hollow item, welded or seamless. It has a round cross section with a continuous periphery. It is primarily designed to convey fluids, gasses, and/or semisolids. Excludes ELBOW, PIPE; ELBOW, TUBE; BEND, ELECTRICAL CONDUIT; BEND, PIPE, RETURN; and BEND, TUBE, RETURN.

What is a Metallic Bent Tube?

A Metallic Bent Tube (TUBE,BENT,METALLIC) is a bent hollow item, welded or seamless. It has a round, square or any other cross section, with a continuous periphery. It is primarily designed to convey fluids, gases and/or semisolids. Excludes items of circular cross section which conform in dimensional characteristics to PIPE, METALLIC; ELBOW, PIPE; ELBOW, TUBE; BEND, ELECTRICAL CONDUIT; BEND, PIPE, RETURN; and BEND, TUBE, RETURN. For items with end fittings on one or both ends, see TUBE ASSEMBLY, METAL.

What is a Metallic Tube Assembly Set?

A Metallic Tube Assembly Set (TUBE ASSEMBLY SET,METALLIC) is two or more TUBE ASSEMBLY, METAL, of different characteristics stocked as one unit.

What is a Metal Pipe Assembly?

A Metal Pipe Assembly (PIPE ASSEMBLY,METAL) is one or more lengths of pipe, straight or prebent to a predetermined angle. Designed with added component(s) to conform to a specified pattern and form end connections on one and/or more ends. For items not conforming dimensionally to National Bureau of Standards applicable to pipe, see TUBE ASSEMBLY, METAL.
