IAPMO R&T was started in 1936 as a third-party listing agency specializing in plumbing and mechanical products. IAPMO R&T is accredited to certify products that meet the criteria of the Uniform Plumbing Code, Uniform Mechanical Code, Uniform Solar Energy Code, Uniform Swimming Pool, Spa and Hot Tub Code and other nationally recognized codes and standards in North America.
Any material permitted by the plumbing, health, or building code (as applicable) may be used, but it must be compatible with the other materials in the system, the fluids being transported, and the temperature and pressure inside (and outside) the system. Brass or bronze fittings are common in copper piping and plumbing systems.
1. Scope of ASTM A53 Standard ASTM A53 is standard specification for pipe, steel, black and hot dipped, zinc-coated, welded and seamless. This specification covers seamless and welded black and hot-dipped galvanized steel pipe in NPS 1⁄8 to NPS 26 [DN 6 to DN 650] (Note 1), inclusive, with nominal wall thickness (Note 2) as given in Table X2 ...

A pipe support or pipe hanger is a designed element that transfer the load from a pipe to the supporting structures. The load includes the weight of the pipe proper, the content that the pipe carries, all the pipe fittings attached to pipe, and the pipe covering such as insulation.
Many material or standard specifications include a number of different UNS numbers that may be used within that specification. For example: UNS S30400 (SAE 304, Cr/Ni 18/10, Euronorm 1.4301 stainless steel) could be used to make stainless steel bars ( ASTM A276 ) or stainless steel plates for pressure vessels ( ASTM A240 ) or pipes ( ASTM A312 ).
The alloy number is simply a general classifier, whereas it is the specification itself that narrows down the steel to a very specific standard. The SAE steel grade system's correspondence to other alloy numbering systems, such as the ASTM-SAE unified numbering system (UNS), can be seen in cross-referencing tables (including the ones given below).
The group developed a standard for the steel used to fabricate rails. In 1961 the name "American Society for Testing and Materials" was adopted. In 2001, ASTM officially changed its name to "ASTM International" and added the tagline "Standards Worldwide". [citation needed] In 2014, the tagline changed to "Helping our World Work better."
