# The pressure rating information above is calculated based on a combination of ASME B31.3 and European guidelines, for straight pipes, using full penetration welded joints, and is provided for information only. Pipework systems should be designed in accordance with appropriate established standards or codes and due consideration must be taken of additional factors, such as any allowance required for corrosion and bending, fittings etc. It is the responsibiity of the user to ensure that the tube is suitable for the intended application, that they are operating fully in accordance with all relevant statutory and legislative requirements and that all standards and engineering documents referenced are correctly applied.
