Delivering High Quality Stainless Steel and Alloy Piping Products — Pipes, Tubes, Fittings, Flanges and more for Global Industries.
sales@savoypipinginc.com
Savoy Piping Inc. supplies ISO 3183 seamless pipe for pipeline transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries — the international line-pipe companion often mapped to API 5L seamless packages.
Buyers usually order by grade + PSL (PSL1 or PSL2), OD/wall, ends, delivery condition and documentation. PSL2 packages commonly add toughness, tighter chemistry and more testing than PSL1.
Grades we quote: L245, L290, L320, L360, L390, L415, L450, L485 (and project-specific higher grades on request), with EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 MTCs and optional NACE / HIC / SSC sour-service routes.
Related: ISO 3183 Welded SAW Pipe, API 5L Seamless, API 5L LSAW.
ISO 3183 specifies steel pipe for pipeline transportation systems in oil and gas service. Seamless product forms are preferred for many high-pressure transmission and gathering lines where a longitudinal weld seam is not required by design.
The standard covers two product specification levels — PSL1 and PSL2. Always write both the L-grade and the PSL on the purchase order.
Common approximate mappings: L245≈Grade B, L290≈X42, L320≈X46, L360≈X52, L390≈X56, L415≈X60, L450≈X65, L485≈X70. Confirm chemistry, toughness and annex testing against the governing PO — do not substitute on name alone.
PSL2 typically means tighter chemistry, mandatory toughness and more documentation. If the data sheet says PSL2 with CVN / sour annexes, quote the full test package up front — not a PSL1 commercial substitute.

ISO 3183 Pipes AS PER ANNEX A, ANNEX B, ANNEX C, ANNEX D ANNEX E, ANNEX G, ANMEX H, ANNEX I, ANNEX J, ANNEX K, ANNEX L, ANNEX M.
ISO 3183 seamless pipe is used for pipeline transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries — oil, gas and related transmission lines ordered to international ISO line-pipe requirements.
They are closely aligned line-pipe standards. Many projects dual-certify or map grades (for example L245≈Grade B, L360≈X52, L450≈X65, L485≈X70), but you must follow the purchase order specification, PSL level and testing annexes — do not substitute on grade name alone.
PSL2 generally requires tighter chemistry, toughness and more extensive testing/documentation than PSL1. Pipeline projects often specify PSL2 with CVN impact and additional annex requirements.
Common grades include L245, L290, L320, L360, L390, L415, L450 and L485 in PSL1 or PSL2, with EN 10204 3.1/3.2 MTCs and optional sour-service / HIC / SSC testing when specified.
