GB/T 18984 seamless steel tubes are designed for low-temperature pressure vessel piping and low-temperature heat exchanger piping, covering service temperature grades from -45°C to -196°C. They are manufactured by hot-finished or cold-finished seamless processes, with controlled heat treatment and low-temperature impact toughness verification to reduce brittle-fracture risk in cryogenic and refrigerated piping systems.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Material | Carbon steel / low-alloy low-temperature steel |
| Standard | GB/T 18984 |
| Main Grades | 16MnDG, 10MnDG, 09DG, 09Mn2VDG, 06Ni3MoDG |
| Outside Diameter | Common range: 6–630 mm; customized sizes available according to project drawings |
| Wall Thickness | According to GB/T 17395 or customer-specified schedule/thickness |
| Length | 1–12 m, customized; common fixed lengths include 5.8 m, 6 m, 11.8 m, 12 m |
| Tolerance Range | According to GB/T 17395 or agreed purchase specification |
| Straightness | Controlled for pressure piping fabrication; project-specific tolerance available |
| Surface Condition | Bare, oiled, anti-rust coated, black painted, or customized |
| Heat Treatment | Normalized, normalized + tempered, or other controlled heat treatment depending on grade and order requirement |
| Manufacturing Method | Hot-finished or cold-finished seamless tube |
| Inspection | Chemical analysis, tensile test, impact test, flattening/flaring/bending test, hydrostatic or NDT, dimensional and surface inspection |
| Feature | Technical Value |
|---|---|
| Low-temperature service range | Applicable to -45°C to -196°C low-temperature piping and heat exchanger service under GB/T 18984 |
| Impact-toughness grade selection | 16MnDG / 10MnDG / 09DG for -45°C; 09Mn2VDG for -70°C; 06Ni3MoDG for -100°C typical low-temperature impact applications |
| Strength range | 16MnDG tensile strength 490–665 MPa; 09Mn2VDG tensile strength ≥450 MPa; 06Ni3MoDG tensile strength ≥455 MPa |
| Seamless structure | No longitudinal weld seam, reducing weld-related discontinuity risk in pressure piping |
| Nickel/Mo alloy option | 06Ni3MoDG contains Ni and Mo for improved low-temperature toughness compared with plain carbon-manganese grades |
| Controlled documentation | Test reports can include heat number, chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment condition, impact test temperature, NDT/hydrostatic test results |
| Buyer Concern | Our Solution |
|---|---|
| Impact toughness must match the design minimum temperature. For low-temperature systems, a Charpy impact test at the wrong temperature is not equivalent to the project design condition. | We confirm the required design temperature before production and match the grade accordingly: 16MnDG/10MnDG/09DG for -45°C class, 09Mn2VDG for -70°C class, and 06Ni3MoDG for deeper low-temperature service. Impact test temperature and values can be shown on the MTC. |
| Heat treatment condition affects low-temperature toughness. Incorrect or missing heat treatment records are a common rejection point in pressure-pipe procurement. | We supply tubes in normalized or controlled heat-treated condition as required by grade and order. Heat treatment batch, furnace record, and mechanical test results can be matched to heat number for traceability. |
| Traceability and inspection documents are critical for pressure equipment projects. EN 10204 3.1/3.2 documentation is often requested for international procurement. | We provide heat-number traceability, chemical and mechanical test data, dimensional inspection, surface inspection, and NDT/hydrostatic test records. EN 10204 3.1 or third-party inspection can be arranged when specified in the purchase order. |
