6 inch carbon steel pipe
Carbon steel pipe is made of steel ingot or solid round steel through perforation into rough pipe, and then hot rolled, cold rolled or cold drawn into.
Its size is 6 inch specifically means 6.63″OD, and the inner diameter and wall thickness are related to the sch/standard.
The following will specifically introduce the size specifications of 6 inch carbon steel pipe.

6 inch carbon steel pipe Mechanical Properties
General Mechanical Properties for ASTM A106 Grade B Carbon Steel Pipe (3/4 inch):
Tensile Strength:
Minimum: 60,000 psi (415 MPa)
Yield Strength:
Minimum: 35,000 psi (240 MPa)
Elongation:
Minimum: 20% in 2 inches (for smaller diameters, such as 6 inch, the elongation requirement may be adjusted slightly).
Hardness:
Not specifically defined in the standard, but generally, carbon steel of this grade has a Brinell Hardness (HBW) of around 120-180.
Impact Resistance:
Typically measured by Charpy V-Notch test for applications requiring toughness, especially at lower temperatures. For ASTM A106, impact testing may be required if used in low-temperature environments, though it’s not a general requirement for standard applications.
Modulus of Elasticity:
Approximate: 29,000,000 psi (200 GPa)
