The API 5L PSL1 X42 steel grade processing performance is good. Due to the uniform control of steel plate performance, excellent performance coordination and good toughness guarantee, the steel plate bending processing, drilling, cutting and other mechanical processing properties are excellent. In addition, the surface of the API 5L PSL1 X42 steel grade steel plate is smooth and beautiful by inhibiting and removing oxide scale from slab heating to rolling process and heat treatment in furnace without oxidation atmosphere.
Steel plates for oil and gas pipelines: X42 (L290), X46 (L320), X52 (L360), X56 (L390), X60 (L415), X65 (L450), X70 (L485), X80. Executive standard: API -5LB (L245). Main purpose: used to make oil and natural gas pipelines. API 5L generally refers to the pipeline steel plate-API 5L pipeline steel plate. The pipeline steel plate is processed into large-diameter pipeline steel pipe to transport the oil, gas, and water extracted from the ground through the pipeline pipe to the oil and natural gas industrial enterprises.
It is reported that Hoa Phat's current API 5L PSL1 X42 steel grade production capacity is 8 million tons/year. In 2021, the company plans to produce 5 million tons of construction steel and billets, 2.7 million tons of hot-rolled coils, 920,000 tons of steel pipes and 300,000 tons of coated sheets.
