API 5L Carbon Steel Pipes for Oil & Gas Transmission: High-Performance Pipeline Solutions.
Seamless & Welded Pipes (10–426mm OD, 1–100mm WT) with ±1% Diameter Tolerance.
Engineered to API 5L, ASTM A106/A53, and EN 10208-2 standards, our carbon steel pipes are designed for high-pressure oil, gas, and steam transportation. Available in 3–12m lengths (customizable) and Grades X42–X80, these pipes meet stringent requirements for onshore and offshore pipelines, ensuring 20–30% higher burst pressure resistance than conventional alternatives.
Key Features:
- Standards Compliance: API 5L PSL1/PSL2, ISO 3183, DIN 17100
- Pressure Rating: 15–30 MPa (2,175–4,350 psi)
- Coatings: FBE, 3LPE, 3LPP (100–500µm thickness)
- Certifications: API Monogram, ISO 9001, NACE MR0175
