Supplier Of API 5L Grade X46 PSL2 Seamless and Welded Pipe, API 5L X46 Grade PSL1 Line Pipe, API 5L L320 X46 Pipe Supplier, API 5L X46 Pipe Supplier, Manufacturer and Exporter based in India.
Solitaire Steel is a leading manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of API 5L X46 pipes manufactured according to the ISO 3183 standard, offering strong performance due to their chemical composition. With 0.28% carbon, 1.4% manganese, and low levels of sulfur and phosphorus, these pipes provide enhanced strength and durability compared to many other grades. The API 5L X46 Pipe is known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and abrasion, making it suitable for demanding applications.
The API 5L X46 pipes come in various sizes and thicknesses. Nominal sizes range from 1/8 to 32 inches, with an outer diameter of 8.3 mm to 813 mm and wall thickness from 1.73 mm to 17.48 mm. These pipes are commonly used in power generation, petrochemicals, high-pressure vessels, and for transporting oil, gas, and water. At Solitaire Steel, we pride ourselves on being a leading manufacturer and supplier of API 5L X46 pipes in India, offering top-quality products at competitive prices.
Our API 5L X46 Seamless Pipes are made from solid billets and are known for their strength and mechanical properties, with a minimum tensile strength of 435 MPa and yield strength of 320 MPa. These pipes are ideal for high-pressure applications. API 5L X46 PSL1 Welded Pipes are produced through welding and come with various end options such as plain, beveled, or threaded ends. They are strong and durable, suitable for extreme pressures and temperatures.
We also offer API 5L X46 High Yield Pipes, which are used in severe environments and can be coated with FBE, galvanized, or 3LPE for added protection against corrosion. Our Grade X46 PSL2 Spiral Pipes are available in sizes up to 12 meters and can be customized to meet specific chemical and dimensional requirements.
For high-pressure and temperature systems, the API 5L X46 Grade B LSAW Pipes are used extensively for transporting large volumes of hydrocarbons. They come with wall thicknesses between 8 mm and 50 mm and are available in sizes from 16 OD to 54 OD. API 5L X46 Gr B DSAW Pipes, though low-cost, offer high efficiency and are designed for various applications.
If you need API 5L X46 pipes with enhanced mechanical properties, our PSL2 pipes provide superior resistance to corrosion and performance in extreme conditions. Additionally, the API 5L X46 Grade PSL1 Sour Service Pipes are designed for hydrogen-induced environments and offer robust protection against hazardous materials.

What is API 5L X46 Pipe?
At Solitaire Steel, our API 5L X46 pipes are designed for durability and performance in demanding environments. These pipes are favored for their long service life and suitability for various applications. The FBE (Fusion Bonded Epoxy) coating on our API 5L X46 ERW pipes enhances their resistance to corrosion and boosts their tensile strength. This makes them an excellent choice for industries such as petrochemicals, oil and natural gas, and petroleum, where durability is critical.
Our API 5L X46 pipes, including the PSL1 and PSL2 grades, are crafted from high-quality raw materials to ensure optimal performance. The addition of molybdenum and chromium imparts excellent corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. Our PSL2 pipes, in particular, are rigorously tested to meet strict chemical and mechanical standards, making them reliable for transporting fluids and gas from offshore sites to refineries. They also excel in sour wells, resisting both general corrosion and sulfide stress cracking. For superior quality API 5L X46 pipes that meet your specific needs, Solitaire Steel is your trusted source.
