metal pipe made of a good grade of cast-iron with or without additions of nickel, chromium, or other alloy. This pipe is available in sizes from 1J in. to 6 in., and in standard lengths of .5 or 6 ft, with external and internal diameters closely approximating those of extra strong wrought pipe. Castferrous pipe may be obtained,coupled,'beveled for welding, or with ends plain or grooved for the several types of couplings. It is easily cut and threaded as well as welded. The fact that it is readily welded enables the manufacturers to supply the pipe in any lengths practicable for handling.
Alloy Metal Pipe. Steel pipe bearing a small alloy, of copper or other alloying element and iron pipe bearing a small amount of copper and molyb-

'Copper Pipe and Fittings. 'Owing to inherent resistance to corrosion,
copper and brass pipe have always been' used in heating, ventilating, and
Water supply installations, but the cost with standard dimensions for
threaded 'connections has been high. The recent introduction of fittings
which permit erection by soldering or Sweating allows the use of pipe with
thinner walls than are possible with threaded connections, thereby reducing
the ;cost of installations.

The initial cost of brass and copper pipe installations generally runs higher than the corresponding job-with steel-pipe and screwed connections in spite of the use of thin wall pipe, but the corrosive nature of the fluid

COMMERCIAL PIPEf DIMENSIONS
The two weights of steel and wrought-iron pipe commonly used are known as standard weight and extra strong, which correspond to Schedules 40 and1 80, respectively, of the American' Standard for Wrought-iron and WroughtSteel Pipe, A.S.A. B36.10. The same external-diameter is used for both

From Standard Specifications for Welded and Seamless Steel Pipe of the American Society for Testing Materials, A.S.TM. Designation A120.
* Sixes larger than those shown in the table are measured by their outside diameter, such as 14 in. outside diameter, etc. These larger sixes will be furnished With plain ends, unless otherwise specified. The weights ' will correspond to the manufacturers' published standards although it is possible to calculate the theoretical weights for any given sire and wall thickness on the basis of 1 cu in. of steel weighing 0.2833 lb. >

d Owing to a departure from the Standard-Weight and Extra-Strong wall thicknesses for the 12 in. nominal slxe. Schedules 40 and 60, Table 2 of the A.8.A. B36.10-1939, Standard for Wrought-iron and Wrought-Steel Pipe, the regular Standard and Extra-Strong wall thicknesses (0.375 in. and 0.600 in.) have been substituted.
weights of each nominal size for manufacturing reasons as well as to afford
interchangeability in threading, and other elements associated with fabri-'
cation and erection.- Hence the difference in wall thickness is accom
panied by a corresponding change in inside diameter. In sizes up to 14
in., pipe is designated by its nominal size which corresponds roughly to the
inside diameter of Schedule 40 pipe.i In-sizes 14 in. and- upward,1 pipe is
designated by its outside diameter (O.D.), and the wall thickness is speci-'
