Which standard covers seamless red brass pipe?

• A. ASME B16.15
• B. CPVC Pipe
• C. ASTM B 43
• D. Table 5.2.1

Answer: (C)

Seamless red brass pipe is defined by ASTM B43, the Standard Specification for Seamless Copper-Bearing Red Brass Pipe. This standard directly covers the alloy composition, dimensions, tolerances, and testing requirements for seamless red brass pipe used in plumbing and related systems. The other options don’t apply: ASME B16.15 deals with cast copper-alloy fittings rather than pipe, CPVC pipe refers to a plastic piping material with its own set of standards, and Table 5.2.1 is not a standalone pipe standard.
