RE: A106B VRS A501 ORA53 Gr B

I know what ASTM A-106, Grade B and ASTM A-53, Grade B carbon steel are but I do not know what A500O material is.  Would you please explain?  Thank you.

I'm taking a complete swag, but I think the title was supposed to say "A106B versus A501 or A53 Grade B."  And then, despite the shouting, the "A500O" was supposed to be "A501."  I'm not sure where or how the A53 Grade B from the title fits in.

I'm also not sure what he means by "structural" rather than "pressure" -- do you think he might want to know the yield strength of the various materials?

Maybe he can take the time to better articulate what he needs in a clearer fashion.
