ASTM A105 & A350 Size Range

ASTM A105 & A350 Size Range

(OP)
Can anyone tell me what piping size range applies to ASTM A105?

Also, what range for A350?

Thank you

All and more.

RE: ASTM A105 & A350 Size Range

The ASTM specs don't limit size, as stanweld has said, but speaking of common piping components and common commercially available commodities:

For valves and ASME B16.11 fittings, expect to see forged material at 4" and smaller sizes and 2" and smaller most commonly.

Forged valve bodies are less uncommon above these sizes.

Flanges and integrally reinforced outlet fittings of all sizes are forged standard.

Am I leaving any items out?
