As a pipe consultant for exporters for many years, I have the experience and expertise to answer questions about many grade pipes. API 5L X65 Pipe is a high-grade carbon pipe to be useful in many applications in several sectors. It is because of their many manufacturing processes and excellent properties. Also, these pipes are available in many wall thicknesses.

For anyone to buy API 5L X65 Carbon Steel pipe, it is essential to check its thickness as it can even determine its overall strength. The pipe schedule does not represent the wall thickness but refers to the thickness series like SCH 5, SCH 40, SCH 80, and others. The higher the series, the more the wall thickness of the pipes.

API 5L Gr X65 PSL 2 pipe has wall thicknesses in DN or Nominal Diameter to measure in millimetre and North America in inches in the NPS or National Pipe Size measurements. Hence as per the place of sales and use, the wall thickness gets measured in millimetres or inches. The API 5L X65 Tube and Pipe are available in wall thicknesses between 8 mm to 50 mm per the customers’ requirements.

For buying any pipe, it is essential to know the tensile strength as it is critical for the fitting to not break to cause huge damage. It is because tensile strength is the pipes’ maximum load-bearing capacity to not fracture while stretching with loads. Tensile strength is the dimensions of force per unit area to measure the pipe strength.

X 65 pipe has a minimum tensile of 535 MPa or 77,600 PSI and minimum yield strength of 450 MPa and 65,300 PSI.

PSL 1 and PSL 2 are the two product specifications of the many X series pipes adhering to the API or American Petroleum Institute’s specifications. Though both have many similarities, there are also many differences between API 5L X65 PSL2 pipe and PSL 1 pipe.

American Petroleum Institute has specified many standards for the API 5L Grade X65 Pipe and other X series pipes. Available in seamless and welded forms, it is also in the PSL1 and PSL 2 product specifications.

API 5L Gr X65 welded pipe standards are per the ISO 3183 specifications. Also known as L450 Pipe because of its minimum yield strength of 65,000 for X 65 standards.

API 5L X65 PSL2 pipe and API 5L Gr X65 welded pipe used in sour service applications

Sour service pipes protect the fittings from H2S or hydrogen sulfide corrosion. API 5L Gr X65 PSL 2 pipes have high corrosion resistance because of their chemical composition to also be suitable for sour services.

Hence these pipes are best for many onshore and offshore pipelines for oil & gas transmission and other applications.
