API L80 Versus N80

This document provides specifications for three types of steel pipe according to API standards: API L80 which has a minimum yield strength of 80,000 psi, maximum of 95,000 psi, minimum tensile strength of 95,000 psi, and maximum hardness of 23 HRC. API N80 has a minimum yield strength of 80,000 psi, maximum of 110,000 psi, and minimum tensile strength of 100,000 psi with no hardness requirement. API Normalized N80 is a lower cost alternative to standard API N80 for walls less than 0.500 inch with matching strength specifications but lower Charpy impact test results.

  • API Grade Specifications

API L80 Minimum Yield Strength: Maximum Yield Strength: Minimum Tensile Strength: Hardness Requirement:

80,000 psi 95,000 psi 95,000 psi 23 HRC maximum

Notes: Manufactured to API specification 5CT. This is a controlled yield strength material with a hardness testing requirement. L80 is usually used in wells with sour (H2S) environments. API N80 (or N80 Q&T) Minimum Yield Strength: Maximum Yield Strength: Minimum Tensile Strength: Hardness Requirement:

80,000 psi 110,000 psi 100,000 psi None

Notes: General purpose pipe manufactured to API specification 5CT. API Normalized N80 Minimum Yield Strength: Maximum Yield Strength: Minimum Tensile Strength: Hardness Requirement:

80,000 psi 110,000 psi 100,000 psi None

Notes: A lower cost alternative to standard Quench and Tempered API N80 (walls less than 0.500 inch). Inspection, testing, and dimensions are in accordance with API 5CT for grade N80. Charpy v-notch impact test absorbed energy results meet API SR16 and are lower than Quench and Tempered N80.

API L80 Minimum Yield Strength: 80,000 psi Maximum Yield Strength: 95,000 psi Minimum Tensile Strength: 95,000 psi Hardness
