What are the other ASME standards that cover piping components?

There are several ASME standards that cover piping components in addition to ASME B16.5. Here are some of the most common ones:

1. ASME B16.9 – This standard covers wrought steel butt-welding fittings, including elbows, tees, reducers, and caps.

2. ASME B16.11 – This standard covers socket-welding and threaded forged fittings, including elbows, tees, couplings, and plugs.

3. ASME B16.34 – This standard covers valve design, materials, testing, and marking for steel, bronze, iron, and alloy valves.

4. ASME B16.20 – This standard covers metallic gaskets for pipe flanges, including spiral-wound and ring-joint gaskets.

5. ASME B31.1 – This standard covers power piping systems, including design, materials, fabrication, testing, and inspection.

6. ASME B31.3 – This standard covers process piping systems, including design, materials, fabrication, testing, and inspection.

7. ASME BPVC Section VIII – This standard covers the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and certification of pressure vessels.

These standards are important for ensuring the compatibility and safety of piping systems. It’s important to select the appropriate standard for the specific application and to follow the guidelines and requirements outlined in the standard.
