The API seamless line pipe is used to transfer oil, gas or water to the industrial end users. The linepipe takes two forms, seamless or with seams. It often goes through special machining process to receive a threaded, shouldered or plain end. For joining methods, the linepipe can be butt welded, threaded, or socket welded.
Our API seamless line pipe specifically refers to the pipe that has been tested to and complies with the specification API 5L. API linepipe-making process is similar to that of the ordinary seamless steel pipe, but the former has more stringent precision and tolerance band requirements to meet. In order for a better understanding of our API 5L linepipe, we give the following detailed specification and order information for reference.
Specification: API SPEC 5L PSL1/PSL2
1. Process: hot rolling, cold drawing, hot-expanding
2. Standards: API 5L PSL1, PSL2
3. Specification Range:
OD: 3''-24'' (48mm-610mm)

4. Materials: GR.B, L245, L290, L360, X42, X46, X56, X65, X70
5. Testing: eddy current, hydrostatic, ultrasonic, intergranular corrosion.
6 Packing: in bundles with steel strips, seaworthy packing as per customer's requirements
