Note 1:--For copper gas and oil burner tubes, the tolerances shown above for various wall thicknesses
(type K) apply irrespective of diameter.

Note 2:--For tubes other than round no standard tolerances are established. These tolerances do not
apply to condenser and heat exchanger tubes.
random lengths of 16 to 22 ft, although when ordered with plain ends, 5 per cent may be in lengths of 12 to 16 ft. Five per cent of the total number of lengths ordered may be jointers which are two pieces coupled together. Extra-strong pipe is generally furnished with plain ends in random lengths of 12 to 22 ft, although 5 per cent may be in' lengths of 6 to 12 ft.
In addition to IPS copper pipe, several varieties of copper tubing are in use with either flared or compression couplings or soldered joints. Dimen sions of copper water tubing intended for plumbing, underground water service, fuel-oil lines, gas lines, etc., have been standardized by the U. S.

Government and the American Society for Testing Materials. There are three standard wall-thickness schedules of copper water tubing classified in accordance with their principal uses as follows:
Type K--Designed for underground services and general plumbing service. Type L--Designed for general plumbing purposes.
Type M--Designed for use with soldered fittings only.
In general, Type K is used where corrosion conditions are severe, and Types L and M where such conditions may be considered normal as, for instances in heating work. Types K and L are available in both hard and soft tempers; Type M is available only in hard temper. Where flexibility is essential as in hidden replacement work or where as few joints as possible are desired as in fuel-oil lines, the soft temper is commonly used. New or

Question. To obtain the amount of expansion between any two temperatures take the
uinerence between the figures m the table for those temperatures. For example, if a steel pipe is installed
at a temperature of 60 F and is to operate at 300 F, the expansion would be 2.519 -- 0 593 -- 1 926 in
exposed work generally employs copper pipe of a hard temper. All three classes are extensively used with soldered fittings.
Standard dimensions, weights, and diameter and wall-thickness tolerances for these classes of copper tubing are given in Table 3. Copper pipe is also available with dimensions of steel pipe.
Refrigeration lines used in connection with air conditioning equipment also employ copper tubing extensively. For refrigeration use where ubing absolutely free from scale and dirt is required, bright annealed PPer tubing that has been deoxidized is used. This tubing is available m a variety of sizes and wall thicknesses.
