Random lengths in sizes 1⁄8 in. (3.2 mm) and larger in outside diameter shall be subject to a length range of 5 to 24 ft (1.50 to 7.30 m). Long random lengths are subject
to a range of 15 to 22 ft (4.57 to 6.70 m).
Random lengths in sizes up to, but not including, 1⁄8 in. (3.2 mm) in outside diameter and fragile light-wall tubes over this outside diameter are subject to the length range
of 1 to 15 ft (0.30 to 4.57 m).
E Cut Lengths—Tolerances on cut lengths shall be in accordance with Table X1.2.
F Straightness—Round tubing is subject to a straightness tolerance of one part in 600 [equivalent to a depth of arc of 0.030 in. (0.76 mm) in any 3 ft (0.91 m) on length].
G When specified, the tolerance spreads of this table may be applied as desired. However, when not specified, the tolerances in this table will apply. It should be noted
that inside diameter tolerances are based upon the outside diameter range.

X2. CONDITIONS AND FINISHES NORMALLY SUPPLIED
X2.1 Scope
X2.1.1 This appendix lists the conditions and finishes in
which pipe and tube (other than converter sizes) are normally
supplied. These are subject to change, and the manufacturer
should be consulted for the latest information available.
X2.2 Cold-Worked Tube and Pipe
X2.2.1 Cold-Worked, Annealed, with Ground Outside
Diameter—The inside diameter may have a bright finish when
material is annealed in a protective atmosphere; otherwise, the
inside diameter is supplied descaled as necessary. It is available
in sizes 1⁄2 to 4 in. (12.7 to 102 mm), inclusive, in outside
diameter in both normal and heavy-wall tube, and pipe sizes,
all schedules, of corresponding outside-diameter dimensions.
X2.2.2 Cold-Worked, Annealed, and Pickled (Not
Ground)—Outside and inside diameter will have dull, matte
(pickled) surfaces. It is available in sizes 1⁄2 to 65⁄8 in. (12.7 to
168 mm), inclusive, in outside diameter in both normal and
heavy-wall tube, and pipe sizes, all schedules, of correspond-
ing outside-diameter dimensions.
X2.3 Hot-Worked Tube
X2.3.1 Hot-Worked-Annealed (Not Pickled) Tube—Has an
oxide surface resulting from the hot-working operation. In-
tended generally for machined parts where the oxide surface
will be removed.
X2.3.2 Hot-Worked-Annealed (Pickled) Tube—Has the
oxide surface removed on both outside and inside diameters by
pickling. Surface may be spot ground for removal of minor
surface imperfections at the manufacturer’s option.
X2.3.3 Hot-Worked-Annealed (Machined Outside and In-
side Diameters) Tubes—The outside and inside diameter
surfaces are machined to specified dimensions. Minor surface
imperfections may be spot ground for removal, at the manu-
facturer’s option.
