API 5L PSL2 X52 line pipe is designed for conveying gas, water, and oil in the natural gas and oil industries. Grades covered by API 5L specification are A25, A, B and "X" Grades X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, and X80. The two digit number following the "X" indicates the Minimum Yield Strength (in 000’s psi) of pipe produced to this grade. The minimum yield strength of API 5L PSL2 X52 pipes is 52200 psi.
The company can supply seamless type and welded type of API 5L PSL2 X52 line pipe. There are many manufacturing process like seamless(SMLS), electric resistance welding (ERW), high frequency welding (HFW), low frequency welding (LFW), and submerged arc welding (SAW).
