API 5L PSL2 X60M pipe line conforms to the API 5L standard, where "API" stands for American Petroleum Institute and "5L" is the standard number for pipe line. "PSL2" refers to product specification Level 2, which is an important classification in the API 5L standard, which specifies the rigor of the manufacturing and inspection of steel pipes. At this level, the steel pipe needs to meet the requirements of higher chemical composition, mechanical properties and non-destructive testing. As for "X60M", X60 represents the strength level of the steel pipe, and M represents the delivery status of the steel pipe, which is usually deformation heat treatment.
API 5L PSL2 X60M pipeline steel pipe characteristics.
High strength: X60 grade steel pipe has a high yield strength and tensile strength, can withstand large internal and external pressure, to ensure the safe and stable operation of the pipeline.
Excellent toughness: the steel pipe can still maintain good toughness at low temperature, not easy to brittle fracture, suitable for a variety of complex environmental and climatic conditions.
Good weldability: API 5L PSL2 X60M steel pipe has excellent weldability and can be easily welded and connected to meet the construction requirements of long-distance pipeline.
Strict quality control: As a PSL2 grade steel pipe, API 5L PSL2 X60M needs to accept more stringent quality control during the manufacturing process, including chemical composition analysis, mechanical properties testing, non-destructive testing, etc., to ensure the quality and performance of the steel pipe.
API 5L PSL2 X60M pipeline steel pipe application range.
API 5L PSL2 X60M pipeline steel pipe is widely used in oil, natural gas and other fluid medium long-distance transmission pipeline, such as land and ocean oil and gas pipeline engineering. Its high strength and good toughness make it particularly suitable for use under high pressure, high temperature or complex geological conditions. In addition, the steel pipe can also be used as a structural pipe, such as bridge, wharf, road and other building structure support pipe.
