L360 pipeline steel

L360 is a pipeline steel material, a steel plate for pipelines, mainly used for processing and manufacturing oil and gas pipelines.

The medium-thick plates and coils used in the manufacture of oil, natural gas gathering and long-distance pipelines or coal, building material slurry pipelines, etc. are called pipeline steel (steel for pipeline). Generally, medium and thick plates are used to make thick-walled straight seam welded pipes, while coils are used to produce straight seam resistance welded pipes or submerged arc spiral welded pipes.

Chemical composition of L360 steel plate:
C: 0.2;
Si: 0.35;
Mn: 1.40;
P: 0.02;
S: 0.015;

Mechanical properties of L360 steel plate:
Yield strength: 360—530MPa;
Tensile strength: 460—755MPa;
Elongation: 21%;
Impact test: 90J;
Shock temperature: -20℃;

During the use of L360 pipeline steel, in addition to high compressive strength, it is also required to have high low temperature toughness and excellent welding performance.
