Multi Metals (India) specializes in API 5L PSL1 & PSL2 Pipes certified and tested in accordance with ISO 3183, ISO 15156, NACE MRO175 / 103, HIC, SWC, SSC, SSCC, SOUR SERVICE, H2 SERVICE, IMPACT, POST WELD HEAT TREATMENT (PWHT), IBR, HIGH YIELD, IPS-M-PI-190, IPS-M-PI-221 ETC.
We solicit contacts from reputed Pipe mills to represent them & stock their products for resale to EPC Companies / Promoting Companies.
We today stock nearly 8000MT of API 5L Line Pipes, that include critical grades B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, X80 in form of Seamless / Welded / SAW Pipes size ranging from 1/2" to 100" of different mills which can handle extreme temperatures, pressures and corrosive environment.
The American Petroleum Institute specification API 5L addresses seamless and welded steel line pipe for pipeline transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries. API 5L is suitable for conveying gas, water, and oil. API pipes are produced into seamless pipe and welded steel pipe with Spiral Submerged Arc Welding Pipe (SSAW), Longitudinal Seam Submerged Arc Welding Pipe (LSAW), Electric Resistance Welding (ERW)
