API 5L is a specification for pipeline steel pipe formulated by the American Petroleum Institute. The main steel grades in API 5L are: A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, X80, X90, X100, X120, etc. In API standard, pipeline steels are divided into PSL1 and PSL2. In the standard, there are slight differences in chemical composition, A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate mechanical properties, inspection items, acceptance standards, delivery status, etc between PSL1 and PSL2 steel. For example, API 5L PSL1 X42 requires an upper carbon limit of 0.26, while API 5L PSL2 X42 requires an upper carbon limit of 0.24.
With high-quality A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate steel and professional services, we have won international praise in infrastructure, shipbuilding, oil and other industries, and gradually grow into a bright star in the steel export industry, while winning unanimous praise from foreign customers. It has laid a foundation for the development of our A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate steel market and improved the control of steel plate production quality.
Normalizing is a special case of annealing, the effect is similar to annealing, but the microstructure obtained by normalizing is finer. For low or medium carbon steel, normalizing can improve hardness and machinability. For A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate medium carbon steel and low alloy steel, normalizing can refine grain and uniform structure and reduce hardness. For high carbon steel and high alloy steel, normalizing can eliminate the network carbide produced by forging and improve the homogeneity of the preparation heat treatment structure.
The addition of Ca element in steel such as A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate can refine grain size, partly desulphurize and change the composition, quantity and morphology of non-metallic inclusions. It is similar to that of adding rare earth in steel. It can improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature and low temperature resistance of steel, improve the impact toughness, fatigue strength, plasticity and welding performance of the steel, and increase the cold heading, shock resistance, hardness and contact endurance strength of the steel.
In addition to quality assurance, service is also important for the competition of steel suppliers. All the after-sales service personnel of the company have received professional training and assessment. The steel products supplied by our company enjoy the life-long quality problem replacement service. In the process of using our steel A709 Gr 50 carbon steel plate products, if there is any problem, just contact us in time, and our after-sales service personnel will look for countermeasures and solve the problem with you as soon as possible.
