Alloy steel P22 pipe is one of the most common types of alloy steel pipe. It has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than traditional steel pipe and is strong, durable and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for many applications.
Alloy Steel P22 Pipe Chemical Requirements
Carbon - 0.05% - 0.15%
Manganese - 0.30% - 0.60%
Phosphorus, max - 0.025%
Sulfur, max - 0.025%
Silicon, max – 0.50%
Chromium - 1.90% - 2.60
Molybdenum - 0.87% - 1.13%
Alloy Steel P22 Pipe Specifications
Tensile strength, min, PSI, (MPa) – 60,000 (415)
