Introduction
API 5L PSL1 line pipe is a carbon steel pipe manufactured according to the American Petroleum Institute (API 5L) standard. It is used for transporting media such as oil, natural gas, and water in long-distance pipelines.
Advantages
High Strength
API 5L PSL1 line pipe is made of high-quality carbon steel. Through heat treatment, its yield strength typically reaches over 245 MPa, ensuring resistance to deformation or cracking when transporting high-pressure media such as oil and natural gas.
High Dimensional Precision
During its manufacturing process, this product utilizes rigorous rolling and cold straightening processes to maintain an outer diameter tolerance within ±0.5% and a wall thickness deviation within ±12.5%, ensuring a high fit during installation and docking.
High Interior Finish
API 5L PSL1 line pipe uses high-pressure water to remove iron oxide scale from its inner wall. It is then finely polished using a brush and abrasives to a roughness of Ra ≤ 6.3μm, reducing the accumulation of deposits on the pipe inner wall.
