API 5CT L80 Welded Stainless Steel Casing from Germany

Welded stainless steel casing pipe conforming to API 5CT L80 specifications, designed for oil and gas drilling operations to line and support well bores. It features a seamless-like weld for high-pressure environments and corrosion resistance typical of stainless steel grades like 304 or 316. Classified under 7306.21.40.00 as welded stainless steel casing, other than having circular cross sections over 406.4 mm or other specific exclusions.

Import Tips

Obtain API 5CT certification and mill test reports (MTRs) to verify material grade and weld integrity, required for customs and end-use compliance

Declare exact stainless steel alloy (e.g

304, 316) on entry documents to avoid reclassification; provide chemical composition analysis

Check for anti-dumping duties on stainless steel from specific countries like China; use bonded warehouses for duty deferral during inspection
