What is the recommended pipe schedule for 220 lb steam line
What is the recommended pipe schedule for 220 lb steam line
(OP)
I am re-routing an existing 3/4" high pressure (220lb)steam line. The old line is sch 40 and appears to be badly deteriorated. Do I replace the pipe with sch 40 or do I go to sch 80. The existing fittings were 300#.

These recommendations are what I consider a minimum for this service. Temperature and corrosion allowance were not given so with complete information, you need to verify ratings and wall thickness are adequate.
Good luck,
