API 5L pipe standard range
In the 46th edition of API SPEC 5L, the scope is defined as: "Manufacturing requirements for two product specification levels (PSL1 and PSL2) of seamless steel pipes and welded steel pipes for pipeline transportation systems in the oil and gas industry. This standard does not apply to cast pipes .
In short, API 5L pipe is a carbon steel pipe used in oil and gas transmission systems. At the same time, other fluids such as steam, water, mud, etc. can also be transported using API 5L standards.
