ASTM A 961/A 961M Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Common Requirements for Steel Flanges, Forged Fittings, Valves, and Parts for Piping Applications
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers a group of common requirements that
shall apply to steel flanges, forged fittings, valves, and parts
for piping applications under any of the following individual
product specifications:
In case of conflict between a requirement of the individual
product specification and a requirement of this general requirement
specification, the requirements of the individual product
specification shall prevail over those of this specification.
By mutual agreement between the purchaser and the supplier,
additional requirements may be specified (see Section 4.1.2). The
acceptance of any such additional requirements shall be dependent
on negotiations with the supplier and must be included in the order
as agreed upon between the purchaser and supplier.
The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units
(metric) are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text
and the tables, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values
stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore each
system must be used independently of the other. Combining values
from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the
specification. The inch-pound units shall apply, unless the "M"
designation (SI) of the product specification is specified in the
order.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
