Liam Pipes and Tubes is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of Carbon Steel API 5L Grade X42 Pipes, proudly based in Houston, USA. They specialize in high-quality line pipes designed for the efficient transmission of oil, gas, and water across a variety of terrains and conditions. Known for their durability, weldability, and strength, API 5L X42 Pipes are perfect for long-distance pipelines and demanding infrastructure projects. Liam Pipes and Tubes offers both seamless and welded options in PSL1 and PSL2 grades, ensuring that every product adheres to international standards and consistently performs well in industrial applications.
These Carbon Steel API 5L X42 Pipes are crafted from micro-alloyed carbon steel, boasting a minimum yield strength of 290 MPa (42,000 psi) and a minimum tensile strength of 414 MPa (60,000 psi). They are specifically designed for moderate-pressure applications and come in both PSL1 and PSL2 specifications. The PSL2 grades feature stricter requirements for chemical composition, toughness, and additional testing. With excellent weldability, good impact resistance, and the mechanical strength needed to handle fluctuating temperatures and pressures, these pipes can also be supplied with external coatings to enhance corrosion resistance in tough environments.
