This document specifies the technical delivery conditions for qualities TR1 and TR2 of electric welded
and submerged arc welded tubes of circular cross section, with specified room temperature
properties, made from non-alloy quality steel.
NOTE 1 Quality TR2 is intended to support the essential requirements of EU Directive 2014/68/EU in respect
of pressure equipment with specified room temperature properties (see Table 5).
NOTE 2 Once this standard is published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), presumption of
conformity to the Essential Safety Requirements (ESR) of Directive 2014/68/EU is limited to the technical data
for the materials in this standard and does not presume adequacy of the material for a specific item of pressure
equipment. Consequently, the assessment of the technical data stated in this material standard against the design
requirements of a specific item of equipment to verify that the ESRs of the Pressure Equipment Directive are
satisfied, needs to be done by the designer or manufacturer of the pressure equipment, taking also into account
any subsequent processing procedures which may affect properties of the base materials.
