	Differences include: A53 permits both welded and seamless. As was noted, API 5L is referenced in A53; not in A106. A106 allows only seamless (not welded); A106 anticipates High Temperature Service for end use. Therefore, A106 must comply with ASTM A520, A53 does not. milo __________________ People say between two opposed opinions the truth lies in the middle. Not at all!
