Alba Metal World is a supplier, trader & stockist of ERW Pipes IS 1978 PART 2 in Virar, Vasai, Panvel, Thane, Mumbai, Navi Mumbai & India. IS 1978 (Part 2) is the Indian Standard specification specifically governing Line Pipes intended for higher performance requirements in the transportation of fluids like oil, gas, and water. While IS 1239 is used for general-purpose plumbing and IS 1161 for structural support, IS 1978 is a more specialized standard often used in industrial and petrochemical sectors.
These pipes are designed to handle higher internal pressures and more demanding environmental conditions than standard commercial piping. They are classified by their yield strength, denoted by the "YSt" prefix.
Grades: Common grades include YSt 170, YSt 210, and YSt 240.
Performance: The numerical value (e.g., 240) indicates the minimum yield strength in megapascals ($MPa$). As the grade increases, the pipe can withstand higher internal pressures with thinner walls, optimizing weight and cost.
