Savoy Piping Inc. supplies ASTM A179 / ASME SA179 seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for heat exchangers, condensers and similar heat-transfer apparatus.
These are tubes for heat transfer — not A106 process pipe. Order by OD, wall (min-wall), length, straight or U-bend, and the full test package.
Typical properties: tensile min 325 MPa, yield min 180 MPa, elongation min 35%, hardness max 72 HRB. Chemistry: C 0.06–0.18%, Mn 0.27–0.63%.
Related: A210 Grade A1, A192, Carbon Steel Hub.
A179 / SA179 specifies minimum-wall, seamless, cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for heat exchangers and condensers. Tubes are made by the seamless process and cold drawn; heat analysis and product analysis must meet the carbon/manganese limits.
Also see: Carbon steel seamless hub · API 5L hub · CS buttweld.
Confirm OD/wall against TEMA / exchanger drawings, ask for cold-drawn + heat-treated condition per the mill route, and require flattening, flaring, flange and hydrostatic (or NDE) results on the MTC. For boiler / superheater service, see A210 A1 or A192 instead.

Standard Specification for Seamless Cold-Drawn Low-Carbon Steel Heat-Exchanger and Condenser Tubes
This specification covers minimum-wall thickness, seamless cold-drawn low-Carbon Steel Tubes for tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer apparatus. Tubes shall be made by the seamless process and shall be cold drawn. Heat and product analysis shall be performed wherein steel materials shall conform to required chemical compositions of carbon, manganese, phosphorus, and sulfur. The steel materials shall also undergo hardness test, flattening test, flaring test, flange test, and hydrostatic test

This specification covers minimum-wall-thickness, seamless cold-drawn low-Carbon Stainless Steel Tubes for tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer apparatus
Note 1—Tubing smaller in outside diameter and having a thinner wall than indicanted in this specification is available. Mechanical property requirements do not apply to tubing smaller than 1/8 in. [3.2 mm] in outside diameter or with a wall thickness under 0.015 in. [0.4 mm].
The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M” designation of this specification is specified in the order.

A179 / SA179 covers seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for tubular heat exchangers, condensers and similar heat-transfer equipment — not structural or general process pipe.
A179 is low-carbon cold-drawn HX/condenser tube. A192 is high-pressure boiler tube. A210 is medium-carbon boiler and superheater tube. Match the equipment datasheet — do not substitute on OD alone.
The specification covers tubes from about 1/8 in to 3 in (3.2–76.2 mm) OD. Mechanical property requirements do not apply below certain small OD/wall limits in the standard.
Yes. Straight and U-bend A179 / SA179 tubes can be supplied with EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 MTCs and the required flattening, flaring, flange and hydrostatic tests.
