API L80 Versus N80
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:
Notes: General purpose pipe manufactured to API specification 5CT. API Normalized N80 Minimum Yield Strength: Maximum Yield Strength: Minimum Tensile Strength: Hardness Requirement:
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.
