Product Description

What Are ASTM A135 Fire Sprinkler Pipes? 

ASTM A135 fire sprinkler pipes​ are electric-resistance-welded (ERW) steel pipes manufactured to the ASTM A135 standard and used extensively in water‑based fire sprinkler systems. As a recognized fire protection steel pipe​ standard, ASTM A135 defines the material, mechanical, and dimensional requirements for ERW pipes in automatic sprinkler installations.

Material & Manufacturing

ASTM A135 pipes are made via the ERW​ process: steel coils are formed into a tube and welded longitudinally. Two grades are offered:

  • Grade A​ – Lower tensile strength, suitable for standard wet‑pipe systems
  • Grade B​ – Higher tensile strength, for higher‑pressure or dry‑pipe applications

Pipes are typically supplied as black fire sprinkler pipes​ (uncoated) or hot‑dip galvanized fire sprinkler pipes​ for corrosion resistance in dry, pre‑action, or outdoor environments.

Applications

ASTM A135 ERW fire sprinkler pipes are used in:

  • Wet‑pipe sprinkler systems
  • Dry‑pipe sprinkler systems (requires galvanized finish)
  • Pre‑action systems (data centers, museums)
  • Deluge systems (high‑hazard industrial areas)
  • Commercial buildings, warehouses, factories, parking garages, and residential towe

Why Choose ASTM A135 Fire Sprinkler Pipes?

  • Lower cost​ – ERW is more economical than seamless
  • Consistent quality​ – Tight tolerances from automated coil‑fed production
  • Easy fabrication​ – Excellent for threading, grooving, and cutting on‑site
  • Certification flexibility​ – Available with UL/FM listings to satisfy local codes
  • Global acceptance​ – Recognized across North America, Middle East, Asia, and beyond
