RE: ASTM equivalent to 20MV6 & 18MV6
ASTM A 519 is the standard specification for seamless tubing, but it does not include a similar grade to 20MV6. There are essentially 4 providers of seamless tubing in North America (Tenaris/TAMSA, Timken, Michigan Seamless Tubing, and Dofasco) and all of them certify according to ASTM A 519. All of them would produce an equivalent to 20MV6 if there is sufficient volume. Timken produces a MicroTec 2W65, which is their tradename for an equivalent to 20MV6. I strongly recommend Timken, and strongly advise against Tenaris/TAMSA. The cold drawing facility is quite old, and incapable of producing a clean surface on stress-relieved products. Their communication and customer service is extremely poor.
