What is carbon steel API 5L X52 tensile strength

Posted:2020-12-18 11:18:54

Carbon steel API 5L X52 has a minimum tensile strength of 66700 PSI. There are two API 5L X52 specification levels available, the API 5L X52 PSL1 and the API 5L X52 PSL2. API 5L X52 PSL1 is the commonly used while API 5L X52 PSL2 comes with added mechanical properties.

Carbon steel API 5L X52 tensile strength:

Grade	Tensile Strength
	Min Mpa (Psi)
API 5L X52 PSL1	Min 460 (66700)
API 5L X52 PSL2	460 (66700)- 760(110200)

Carbon steel API 5L X52 tensile strength makes it listed in high strength steel. There are variations of API 5L X52 pipes that are made in seamless and welded conditions. API 5L X52 pipe pressure ratings and wall thicknesses differ with the schedules and there are schedules 20 through XXS and heavier in API 5L X52 pipe.
