13Cr Stainless Steel High Pressure Pipe 0.5in Wall API 5LC Erosion Resistant

Product Specification

Stainless Steel High Pressure Pipe 0.5in Wall, API 5LC, Erosion-Resistant, Oil Drilling

Stainless Steel High-Pressure Pipes (0.5in Wall Thickness)​ by ​Jiangsu China Steel Union Industrial Co., Ltd​ are engineered for extreme oil and gas drilling operations, offering unmatched erosion and corrosion resistance in abrasive, high-pressure downhole environments. Compliant with ​API 5LC, these pipes combine high-strength stainless steel with a 0.5in (12.7mm) wall thickness to withstand sand-laden drilling fluids, H₂S sour gas, and acidic wellbore conditions. The seamless manufacturing process ensures structural integrity under pressures exceeding ​10,000 psi, while chromium (16–18%) and molybdenum (2–3%) content provide superior resistance to pitting and sulfide stress cracking (SSC). Ideal for directional drilling, fracking, and deepwater exploration, these pipes are designed for longevity in the harshest oilfield applications.

3. ​Fast Delivery: 20,000-ton annual capacity; 15-day lead time for API 5LC-certified orders from Tianjin or Houston hubs.
4. ​Full Compliance: NACE TM0177 sulfide stress cracking (SSC) testing, PMI reports, and DNV-GL certification for offshore use.
5. ​Custom Solutions: API threading (BTC, LTC), upset ends, and internal/external coatings (Ni-P or Cr-C) for corrosive wells.

4. Key Applications

• ​Directional Drilling: Heavy-weight drill pipes (HWDP) and bottom-hole assemblies (BHA) in abrasive formations.
• ​Hydraulic Fracturing: High-pressure frac lines and zipper manifolds for shale gas extraction.
• ​Sour Gas Wells: Casing and tubing for H₂S-rich reservoirs, compliant with NACE MR0175 standards.
• ​Offshore Rigs: Riser systems, choke/kill lines, and subsea Christmas tree components.
• ​Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR): CO₂ injection lines and steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) pipelines.

Jiangsu China Steel Union Industrial Co., Ltd​ delivers API 5LC-certified stainless steel pipes that redefine durability and safety in oil drilling operations, empowering global energy companies to maximize productivity in the most challenging downhole environments.
