Abstract (en)

[origin: US4631095A] A ferritic perlite steel is used for pipes and tubing to be highly resistant against stress corrosion cracking when exposed to H2S, and having following alloying range, all percentages by weight: from 0.3 to 0.45 C, from 1.4 to 1.8 Mn, from 0.2 to 0.5 Si, from 0.2 to 0.5 Cr, from 0.04 to 0.1 V, up to 0.06 Nb, </=0.003 S, the remainder being iron whereby the combined Niobium and Vandium content must obey the rule that the sum of the V content plus twice the Nb content must not be not less than 0.1%; tubing is made by hot working followed by cooling in air from the final temperature attained during hot working, so that a texture and grain size in accordance with ASTM finer than 8 obtains; the tubing has strength value of 552 N/mm2</=0.2% of rupture elongation limit </=655 N/mm2 and a tensile strength exceeding 655 N/mm2.
