Export great SA588 Gr B carbon steel material to Russia

Steel SA588 Gr B carbon steel material exports fell sharply year on year. According to the data of the General Administration of customs, 7.811 million tons of steel were exported from January to February, a year-on-year decrease of 27.0%; 2.041 million tons of imported steel, a year-on-year increase of 2.1%. Steel prices continue to fall. According to the monitoring of China Iron and Steel Industry Association, China's steel SA588 Gr B carbon steel material composite price index at the end of January was 105.48 points, down 0.58% month on month; at the end of February, the index continued to decline to 100.39 points, down 4.83% month on month.

API 5L is a specification for pipeline steel pipe formulated by the American Petroleum Institute. The main steel grades in API 5L are: A, B, X42, X46, X52, X56, X60, X65, X70, X80, X90, X100, X120, etc. In API standard, pipeline steels are divided into PSL1 and PSL2. In the standard, there are slight differences in chemical composition, SA588 Gr B carbon steel material mechanical properties, inspection items, acceptance standards, delivery status, etc between PSL1 and PSL2 steel. For example, API 5L PSL1 X42 requires an upper carbon limit of 0.26, while API 5L PSL2 X42 requires an upper carbon limit of 0.24.

Mechanical properties of 45# steel high-quality carbon structural steel: Tensile strength σb (MPa): ≥600, yield strength σs (MPa): ≥355, elongation δ5 (%): ≥16, section shrinkage ψ (%): ≥40, impact energy Akv (J): ≥39. 45# steel impact toughness value αkv (J / cm2): ≥49 (5), hardness: unheated, ≤229HB; annealed steel, ≤197HB. SA588 Gr B carbon steel material, 45# steel chemical composition % (Carbon: 0.42 to 0.50, Silicon: ≤0.40, Manganese: 0.50 to 0.80, Sulfur: ≤0.045, Phosphorus: ≤0.045, Chromium: ≤0.40, Nickel: ≤0.40, Molybdenum: ≤0.10).

The Philiphine customer is our old customer, and they are engaged in offshore oilfield resources drilling projects. Thus they have regular steel demands. They ordered 1008 tons API 5L grade B ERW pipes and Q345B seamless pipes from us in April 2018. And told us that is a regular demand almost every two month. Since our first success cooperation, we have cooperated with each other regularly. And they also bring us new opportunities and signification in Philippians market.
