This standard applies to seamless steel tubing smooth and couplings, with upset ends and couplings are smooth vysokogermetichnye and couplings, as well as flush-joint pipe with upset ends, used for the exploitation of oil and gas wells.
Tubing to this standard shall be manufactured in two grades B and A depending on accuracy and quality level.
Size range of tubing, types of connections for the two grades are given in Table 1.

Technical requirements:
Outside and inside tube surface shall be free of cracks, laps, discountinuities, cavities and inclusions.
Small indentations, scratches on insignificant scale of production origin are permissible if they leave the wall thickness wihtin specified limits.
The run-out sections from upset part to tube body shall be smooth and gradual; wall thickness shall be within the specifed limits. Up set part of 85 mm length from the ends shall be free of defects.
Chemical composition of steel is not specified except that phosphorus and sulphur contents shall not exceed 0.045% each.
Mechanical properties of tubing and coupling metal are give in table 2.

Mechanical properties
Surfaces of threads and sealing shall be zinc-coated or phosphate-treated. All tubing except grade TBO shall be delivered with coupling (power-tight makeup) and anti-corrosion and sealing compounds applied. For transportation tubing and couplings shall be pointed for corrosion protection. Special internal coationgs on tubing grade A shall be applied on request.
