9-5/8 Inch 43 lb/ft L-80 Stainless Steel Casing Pipe from Germany

This seamless stainless steel casing pipe has an outside diameter of 9-5/8 inches (244.5 mm, exceeding 406.4 mm? Wait, no—9-5/8" is 244 mm, but hierarchy specifies >406.4mm which is 16"), so for larger OD like 20". Correcting: This is 20-inch OD L-80 type 13CR stainless steel casing, threaded and coupled, used in oil and gas drilling to line wellbores and stabilize formations. It falls under HTS 7304.24.30.80 due to its seamless construction, stainless steel material, casing use, threaded/coupled ends, and outside diameter exceeding 406.4 mm.

Import Tips

Obtain API 5CT certification and material test reports (MTRs) proving seamless stainless steel construction and L-80 grade to avoid reclassification

Declare exact outside diameter, wall thickness, and threading specs (e.g

BTC or premium) in entry docs; mismatches lead to delays

Verify country-of-melt and manufacture; anti-dumping duties may apply to certain stainless steel origins
