API 5L X46 Pipe are carbon steel pipes, strictly manufactured as per API (AMERICAN PETROLEUM INSTITUTE) to meet the clients requirements. API 5L X46 Pipe are provided with multiple end connections like non-Upset ends and External Upset Ends. MD Exports LLP Pipes provides these api pipes with all mandatory non-destructive testing inclusive of eddy current tests, hydro testing. We offer API 5L pipes with both galvanized and black finish in single random length i.e 4-7 metres and double random lengths i.e 7-13 metres. In General these api pipes are used to transit oil, gas and petroleum distilleries. Among all API x series pipe x52 is the most selling API grade.
MD Exports LLP Pipes is exclusively engaged in stocking and manufacturing API 5L X46 Pipe with certifications confirming to EN 10204- 3.1/3.2. Line pipe is available in sizes ranging from 0.500 to 100 inches and can be produced by seamless, ERW, SAWL and SAWH methods according to API Spec 5L, CSA, DIN EN, BS EN and DNV standards. To check the api5l pipe specification please check below table. Grade X65 PSL2 pipes are available in seamless and welded types, commercially known as API 5L line pipes. The technical committee authoring the standards recognized that there are two basic Product Specifications Levels (PSL) of technical requirements and therefore developed PSL 1 and PSL 2. PSL 1 is a standard quality for line pipe where PSL 2 contains additional chemical, mechanical properties, and testing requirements.
Grades covered by this specification are A25 ,A ,B (and the following "X" Grades), X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, X80. The two digit number following the "X" indicates the Minimum Yield Strength (in 000's psi) of pipe produced to this grade.
We supply various line pipes including seamless line pipes (OD from 2-3/8" to 24", steel grade A, B, X42 - X80) and ERW line pipes (OD from 4-1/2" to 20", steel grade A, B, X42 - X80).

Threading on API 5L Grade X46 PSL1 pipes can be identified either by stamping or stenciling the pipe adjacent to the threaded ends, which are at the manufacturer’s option. It should be with the manufacturer’s name or mark, “Spec 58” (to indicate the applicable threading specification), the specified outside diameter of the pipe, and the letters “LP” (to indicate the type of thread). The thread marking may be applied to products that do or do not bear the API monogram. For example, size 2 3/8- threaded-end pipe may be marked as follows, using the value that is appropriate for the pipe out- side diameter specified on the purchase order.
all Thickness : the minimum wall thickness at any point or end on API 5L pipes and tubes shall not be greater than 12.5% under the nominal thickness specified.
Inner Diameter: For pipe ordered in inside diameter, the inside diameter shall not vary more than ñ 1% from the required/specified inside diameter.
The use of the letters ‘Spec SB’ as provided in 10.8 shall constitute a certification by the manufacturer for API 5L Grade X46 PSL1 Carbon Steel Seamless Pipes that the threads so marked comply with the requirements in API Standard S8 but should not be constructed by the purchaser as a representation that the product so marked is, in its entirety, in accordance with any API specification. Manufacturers who use the letters “Spec SB” for thread identification are required to have access to properly certified API master pipe gauges.
Pipes and Tubes manufactured as per API 5L Grade X46 PSL1 are certified with En 10204 Type 3.1/3.2. IBR,NACE,HIC,IGC,IMPACT are adhered as supplementary testing requirements.
a.) For intermediate grades, the differencec between the specified minimum tensile strength and the specified minimum yield strength for the pipe body shall be as given in the table for the next higher grade.
b.) For Intermediate grades, the specified minimum tensile strength for the weld seam shall be the same value as was determines for the pipe body using footnote
c.) The specified minimum elongation, Af, expressed in percent and rounded to the nearest percent.
For each reduction of 0.0 I% below the specified maximum carbon content, an increase of 0.05% above the specified maximum manganese content is permissible, up to a maximum of 1.50% for Grades API 5L X42, X46 & X52, up to a maximum of 1.65% for grades higher than X52 butt less than X70 like API 5L X56, X60 & X65 up to 2.00% for Grades X70 and higher. Following are the additional restrictions applicable for API 5L pipes and tubes.
The manufacturer shall apply a 2 in. (50 mm) daub of paint of the appropriate color on the inside surface at one end of each length of API 5L Grade X46 PSL1 Pipes.
