ASTM B 811 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Wrought Zirconium Alloy Seamless Tubes for Nuclear Reactor Fuel Cladding
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Oct 10, 2002
Scope:
This specification covers seamless wrought zirconium-alloy tubes
for nuclear fuel cladding application, in the outside diameter (OD)
size range of 0.200 in. (5.1 mm) to 0.650 in. (16.5 mm) and wall
thickness range of 0.010 in. (0.25 mm) to 0.035 in. (0.89 mm).
Two grades of reactor grade zirconium alloys are described.
The present UNS numbers designated for the two grades are given
in Table 1.
Unless a single unit is used, for example corrosion mass gain in
mg/dm2, the values stated in either inch-pound or
SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values
stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore each
system must be used independently of the other. SI values cannot be
mixed with inch-pound values.
The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test
method portions of this specification: This standard does not
purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated
with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard
to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine
the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
