Unless otherwise specified, all material listed herein shall be contractor-furnished. C. Tolerances-The tolerance on the outside diameter of the pipe shall not vary more than +/- 1% from the size specified. The tolerance on the circumference of the pipe shall not vary more than +/- 1% from the size specified. The minimum wall thickness at any point shall not be more than 12.5% under the specified wall thickness. The difference between the major and minor outside diameter (out-of-roundness/ovality) shall not be more than 1.0% of the specified outside diameter. The camber of both diameter pipes shall not be more than ¼” over a length of 10’. D. Materials- The pipe shall be manufactured from rolled abrasion-resistant (AR) steel plate that meets the following physical and chemical properties.
