Pipeline steel refers to a type of steel with special requirements used for the transportation of oil, natural gas and other pipelines. Depending on the thickness and subsequent formation, pipeline steel can be produced by hot continuous rolling machines, furnace coil machines or plate machines, and formed into large-diameter steel pipe by spiral welding or UOE straight seam welding. The current development trend of EN steel grade S460QL material pipeline engineering is large-diameter, high-pressure rich gas transportation, high cold and corrosive service environment, and thickening of submarine pipelines.

Pipeline steel can be divided into three types: high cold, high sulfur area and submarine laying. According to the development trend, service conditions, main failure forms and failure reasons of oil and gas pipelines, it is required that the pipeline steel EN steel grade S460QL material not only has good mechanical properties, but also has negative temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, seawater resistance and hsscc resistance. These pipelines with bad working environment have long lines and are not easy to maintain, so they have strict quality requirements.

Alloy steel plate is formed by adding alloy elements into steel. In this process, the basic elements of steel, namely iron and carbon, will have a certain effect with the newly added alloy elements. Under this effect, the structure and material in the steel will have certain changes, and the overall performance and quality of steel will also be improved. Therefore, the output of EN steel grade S460QL material, alloy steel plate is increasing, and its application range is more and more extensive.

Chemical composition of 42CrMo seamless steel pipe: C: 0.38-0.45, Si: 0.17-0.37, Mn: 0.50-0.80, Cr: 0.90-1.20, Mo: 0.15-0.25, V: 0.15-0.30. Mechanical properties of 42CrMo seamless steel pipe: tensile strength: 1080 MPa, yield strength: 930 MPa, elongation after fracture: 12%, reduction of area: 45%, impact energy: 63J. Due to the effect of carbon and chromium content, EN steel grade S460QL material, 42CrMo seamless steel pipe has better strength and hardenability, higher fatigue strength and resistance to multiple impact after quenching and tempering, good impact toughness at low temperature and no obvious temper brittleness. It is generally used after quenching and tempering.

We have huge stocks for carbon steel plates, high strength low alloy steel materials, weather resistant steel sheets, wear resistant steel plates, boiler plates, pipeline steel, etc. Those stocks can be delivered within 10 days after deposit. We update EN steel grade S460QL material stock list regularly. But the stock changes quickly. It needs to check with warehouse specially when you have urgent needs. Welcome to contact us and book steel materials stocks.

After-sales service team is a key department to test the steel quality. Product quality is always the foundation of our survival and development. The company's full inspection from raw materials to finished products; and implements standardized, scientific, and strict internal quality control and management systems in accordance with the process flow during the production process; products can only leave the factory if qualified, and follow-up problem solving systems are implemented in after-sales services to guarantee the customers’ interest.
