API 5L X52 LSAW Steel Pipe

API X52 pipe is a grade of steel pipe that conforms to the American Petroleum Institute (API) specification 5L. This specification categorizes pipes into two levels: PSL1 (Product Specification Level 1) and PSL2 (Product Specification Level 2). X52 PSL1 pipes are commonly used in less demanding applications where the focus is primarily on the mechanical properties of the pipe. X52 PSL2 pipes are typically used in more critical applications, such as those involving sour service conditions (where the pipe comes into contact with hydrogen sulfide). API 5L is a standard specification for seamless and welded steel pipes used for transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries. The API 5L specification covers both seamless and welded pipes in different grades and sizes. It includes various grades of steel such as A25, A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, X80, and X100. The specification also includes requirements for chemical composition, mecha…
