ASTM B861 is the ASTM International specification covering seamless titanium and titanium alloy pipe.
The required titanium grade or alloy, product condition, dimensions and applicable edition should be identified on the purchase order rather than relying on the standard number alone.
What ASTM B861 Covers
- Seamless titanium pipe
- Seamless titanium alloy pipe
- Grade- or alloy-specific material requirements within the specification.
- Manufacture, dimensions or tolerances, testing, workmanship, certification and marking requirements applicable to the product.
Important Distinction
Use the product term “seamless pipe” for B861. Current editions cover more grades than many older online summaries indicate.

Ordering and Certification
State the complete standard designation and required revision, titanium grade or alloy, product form, dimensions, condition, quantity and any additional testing or certification requirements. The supplied material test report should identify the governing specification and the actual test results applicable to the material.
Standards note: This page is a practical overview and is not a substitute for the official standard. Standards are revised periodically, and requirements can vary by edition, product form and application. Always state the required standard and revision on the purchase order and verify compliance against the applicable specification and material test report (MTR).
