What is API 5L X52?

X52 is an API 5L line-pipe grade defined by minimum yield strength (~52 ksi). It is commonly dual-mapped to ISO 3183 L360. Always specify PSL1 or PSL2 on the order.

Typical applications

  • Oil and gas transmission lines specifying X52
  • Onshore / offshore packages mapped to L360
  • PSL2 toughness packages when required

Frequently asked questions — API 5L X52

What is API 5L X52?

API 5L X52 is line pipe with about 52 ksi (360 MPa) minimum yield, commonly mapped to ISO 3183 L360, available in PSL1 or PSL2.

Do you supply X52 in both PSL1 and PSL2?

Yes — seamless and welded (LSAW/DSAW/HSAW) forms in PSL1 or PSL2 with EN 10204 documentation as required.

X52 seamless vs welded?

Seamless for many smaller OD packages; LSAW/DSAW/HSAW for larger diameters when the project specifies welded line pipe.

What strength should I expect?

Guide values: yield ~52 ksi (360 MPa), tensile ~66 ksi (455 MPa). Confirm against the ordered API 5L edition and PSL tables.

Export & documentation

We supply this product for domestic and export projects with MTC (EN 10204 3.1 standard; 3.2 / TPI on request). Include destination, Incoterms and inspection needs on the RFQ.
