TECHNICAL DATA
Values of allowable internal working pressure for copper tube in service are based on the formula from ANSI B3 I,Standard
Code for Pressure Piping:
2 S tm
P=
Dmax-0.8tm
P= Allowable Pressure @150°F S= 5100 PSIG annealed
S= Allowable stressD max-0.8 tm @ 200°F S= 4800PSIG annealed
T= Wall thickness @ 300°F S= 4700 PSIG annealed
D Max= Outside Diameter @ 400°F S= 3000 PSIG annealed
All ratings listed for types K,L,M,DWV and refrigeration service tube in the preceding charts are calculated for tube in the
annealed condition.These values should be used when soldering,brazing or welding is employed for joining components in
a system.While the ratings for hard drawn tube are substantially higher,they should only be used for systems using properly
designed flare or compression mechanical joints,since joining by any heating process might anneal (soften)the tube.
In designing a system,careful consideration should also be given to joint ratings as well as those of the components.
