ASTM A335 P22 Pipe
One-Minute Overview
- ASTM A335 P22 alloy pipe supplied to controlled outside diameter and wall tolerances.
- Schedules Sch 40 to XXS across 1/2 to 24 inch, matched to pressure and spool design.
- Plain or bevelled ends, cut to length and marked with heat number and schedule.
- Dimensional consistency keeps fit-up quick and inspection paperwork straightforward.
ASTM A335 P22 pipe is bought as much for its dimensions as for its 2.25Cr-1Mo chemistry. On a fabrication job the spool drawing calls out a schedule, a cut length and an end preparation, and the pipe has to land within tolerance or the whole fit-up drifts. The standard fixes the outside diameter series, the wall thickness schedules and the permissible variations, so lengths from different heats still weld together. Sizes run 1/2 to 24 inch here, in schedules Sch 40 to XXS, with plain or bevelled ends and mill test reports following the material.

Sizes, wall thicknesses and schedules are confirmed per inquiry, and a detailed specification sheet is available on request.
Start with the schedule, because that choice drives both strength and handling. Sch 40 covers a lot of general industrial duty, Sch 80 adds wall for higher pressure, and Sch 160 and XXS are there when the line runs thin-margin or highly stressed. Wall tolerance tightens the design allowance — a wall consistently on the plus side lets the engineer use the nominal number with confidence, while a negative-tolerance wall means the same pipe must be treated as lighter gauge. OD tolerance matters at the bevel: mismatched diameters mean gap and rework.
Cutting and end preparation are part of the supply. Lengths can be cut to the spool list, ends supplied plain for socket or welding fittings or bevelled for butt welds, and bevels protected with caps until fit-up. Marking carries heat number, grade, size, schedule and standard, so receiving inspection can reconcile the stack against the mill test report without guesswork. Add ultrasonic or radiographic examination where the service demands it, and keep the pipe off the ground on dunnage with ends capped during storage.

Q1. How do wall schedules and tolerances affect my design?
Q2. Plain end or bevel end — what should I order?
Q3. Can I get lengths that match my spool list, or do I measure them myself?
Q4. What's the minimum I can order?
