Overview

EN ISO 10893-12:2011/A1:2020 is an important international standard published by CEN that specifies the requirements for non-destructive testing (NDT) of steel tubes, focusing on automated full peripheral ultrasonic thickness testing. This amendment updates the acceptance criteria for seamless and welded steel tubes, excluding submerged arc-welded tubes. The latest revision was approved in May 2020, reflecting evolving industry practices and ensuring enhanced quality control in steel tube manufacturing.

This standard is essential for manufacturers, quality inspectors, and engineers involved in the steel pipe industry, particularly where the integrity and thickness consistency of tubes impact safety, performance, and compliance with regulatory demands.

Key Topics

  • Automated Ultrasonic Testing: The standard specifies the procedure for automated ultrasonic measurement of wall thickness around the entire circumference of steel tubes.

  • Scope of Steel Tubes Covered: Applies to seamless tubes and welded tubes, except those manufactured by submerged arc welding. This delineation ensures the method targets tubes where ultrasonic testing is most effective.

  • Updated Acceptance Criteria: The amendment A1:2020 modifies the acceptance rules during retesting. Previously, two consecutive retests were required to pass, but now only one retest is allowed for the tube to clear the trigger/alarm level.

  • Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Emphasizes preserving the tube integrity by detecting wall thickness irregularities without causing damage.

  • Quality Assurance Integration: The standard integrates automated testing systems into the quality control workflow, optimizing inspection accuracy and throughput.

Practical Applications

  • Steel Tube Manufacturing: Ensures that production lines use reliable, repeatable ultrasonic testing methods to verify tube wall thickness, detecting any deviations early in the process.

  • Pressure Vessel and Pipeline Industry: Critical for quality verification of tubes used in high-pressure environments, where thickness deviations can lead to failure.

  • Inspection and Certification: Used by certification bodies and inspection agencies to validate that steel tubes meet strict thickness requirements and industry standards.

  • Material Traceability and Compliance: Helps manufacturers comply with national and international quality regulations by providing documented evidence of full peripheral thickness testing.

  • Automation in Quality Control: Supports integration with automated ultrasonic equipment, reducing human error and increasing test repeatability and speed.

Related Standards

  • EN ISO 10893 Series: Covers various non-destructive testing methods for steel tubes, including other ultrasonic tests and eddy current methods.

  • ISO 3183: Standards for pipeline steel pipe specifications that often reference ultrasonic testing requirements.

  • EN 10217 / EN 10216: Standards governing welded and seamless steel tubes where EN ISO 10893-12 testing may be applied for quality control.

  • ISO 14284: Provides guidance on assessing ultrasonic testing results for tubular products.

  • CEN/TC 459/SC 10: The technical committee responsible for the development and maintenance of steel tube standards, including NDT procedures.

non-destructive testing, steel tubes, ultrasonic thickness testing, automated NDT, seamless steel tubes, welded steel tubes, acceptance criteria, steel pipe inspection, EN ISO 10893-12, CEN standard, steel tube quality control, ultrasonic testing standard, tube wall thickness measurement.


By adhering to EN ISO 10893-12:2011/A1:2020, organizations in the steel tube industry can ensure high-quality, reliable inspection results, supporting safety and performance in key industrial applications. This amendment streamlines the testing protocol, making it more efficient while maintaining stringent acceptance conditions for product integrity.
