The American Petroleum Institute's technical committee recognised the necessity for two fundamental Product Specifications Levels, or PSLs, of technical criteria when creating the standards for specification API 5L. Because of this, the technical committee created PSL levels 1 and 2 for the API 5L X52 Pipe that falls within this specification.
The more strict PSL 2 documents additional standards, such as those for chemical composition, mechanical qualities, and testing, even though PSL 1 is thought of as the standard grade for line pipe. The ISO 3183 L360 Pipe specification covers the following grades: A25, A, B, and "X," which corresponds to grades X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80. The two-digit value that follows the letter X is the minimum yield strength in 000's psi for the specified pipes produced per this grade. So, if a grade is X52, it means that the minimum yield strength value is between 52000 and 62000 PSI.
The petroleum and oil sectors favour the API 5L Grade X52 Carbon Steel Pipe due to its high toughness and hardness as well as its capacity to withstand stress and vibration. Additionally, buyers from Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, or Malaysia working in the aforementioned industries like carbon steel-based API 5L X52 Grade B Seamless Pipe due to its low alloying cost, which significantly lowers the cost of the overall application. Fracture toughness, another characteristic that is necessary for API 5L X52 Erw Pipe belonging to PSL 2, but not required for the specified PSL1 pipe.
The minimum electric welder frequency for an API 5L X52 PSL2 is 100kHz, but the PSL 1 pipe is not subject to this restriction. Furthermore, it should be noted that, in contrast to PSL1 pipe, where this treatment is only necessary for grades greater than X42, heat treatment of electric welds is essential for all Grades of PSL 2 pipes. We are a provider that offers cut-to-length pipe in every grade, saving you money. API 5L X52 Pipe is stocked by Rakesh Metals in all surface finishes.
