API 5CT Steel Casing (OCTG)
Our API 5CT casing pipes are engineered to serve as the structural retainer for the walls of oil and gas wells. Designed to withstand external collapse pressure and internal yield strength, these pipes ensure the integrity of the wellbore during drilling and production phases.

Wall Thickness (WT):5.21mm – 16.13mm
Length Range:R1 (4.88m-7.62m), R2 (7.62m-10.36m),R3 (10.36m-14.63m)
Manufacturing Process:Seamless (SMLS) or Electric Resistance Welded (ERW)
2. API 5CT Steel Grades
We provide a full spectrum of grades categorized by strength and environmental resistance:
Group 1:J55, K55, N80-1, N80-Q
Group 2 (Restricted Yield):L80-1, L80-9Cr, L80-13Cr, C90, T95
Group 3 (High Strength):P110
Group 4:Q125
3. Connection & Threading Types
To ensure leak-proof performance under high pressure, we offer standard and premium connections:

BTC(Buttress Thread Casing)
Premium Connections:Gas-tight threads for extreme high-pressure or sour service (H2S) environments.
4. Key Application Areas
Surface Casing:Protects freshwater zones and supports the blowout preventer.
Intermediate Casing:Isolates high-pressure zones and unstable formations.
Production Casing:The final conduit for oil and gas production, ensuring long-term well stability.
5. Quality Assurance & Protection
Compliance:Full adherence to API Spec 5CT latest edition; supplied withMTC (EN 10204 3.1).
Testing:100% NDT (Ultrasonic & Magnetic Particle), Hydrostatic testing, and Drift testing.
Surface Treatment:External black painting/vanish, color coding as per API standards.
Packaging:Steel strapped bundles with thread protectors (plastic or composite) for secure maritime transit.
