Products Description
Product Name: API 5CT N80Q Seamless Steel Casing Standard: API Spec 5CT, ISO 11960 Grade: N80Q (Quenched & Tempered, Q&T) Type: Seamless casing pipe, Threaded & Coupled / Plain End available Definition: N80Q is quenched and tempered casing under API 5CT, different from N80‑1 (normalized & tempered). It delivers uniform microstructure, stable mechanical performance and better collapse resistance, widely used for oil & gas well casing strings, production casing and intermediate casing. API monogram certified, full NDT and material test report available.
Key difference: N80‑1 = Normalized & Tempered; N80Q = Quenched & Tempered

Chemical Composition (Typical, wt%) C: 0.24–0.28, Mn: 1.20–1.50, Si: 0.20–0.35, P ≤0.020, S ≤0.010, Cr / Mo trace (custom for special requirement)
1.Surface Treatment:
Black Varnish / Transparent Anti-rust Varnish (Standard Export)
Anti-rust for sea transit, avoid rust during container shipment, thin coating, easy inspection
Black Paint
Thicker black protective paint for long-term stock & humid environment
Bare (Oil Coated)
Anti-rust oil on pipe body + thread anti-rust grease, usually for short delivery / domestic yard
Optional: FBE coating, 3LPE (extra cost, mainly for corrosion non-downhole application)
Thread surface: Thread compound / dope applied, plastic thread protectors (thread caps) mandatory for threaded casing
2.Export Packing Details (Seaworthy Packing)
- Pipe End Protection: Plastic thread protectors for BTC / premium thread; plastic end caps for plain end
- Bundle Packing: Bundled by steel strapping, fixed with steel saddles, anti-slip pads between layers
- Marking: Each pipe stenciled API marking; bundle tag with heat number, size, grade, quantity, net/gross weight
- Loading Mode: Bulk loading inside 20GP / 40GP / 40HQ container; or bulk vessel shipment
- Shipping documents: Mill Test Certificate (MTC), API certificate, packing list, commercial invoice, bill of lading, CIQ / SGS / BV inspection certificate if required
- Invoicing: By theoretical weight or actual weighed weight, negotiated before order
- Packing standard: Seaworthy export package, suitable for long ocean voyage, rain & salt spray protection

Application Fields
- Oil & gas well drilling: Surface casing, intermediate casing, production casing
- Onshore oilfield, offshore non-sour well projects
- Geothermal well, deep water injection well
- Ground source heat well, mining shaft protection
- Foundation pipe, piling casing for heavy construction (secondary usage)
Important reminder: N80Q is not suitable for sour H₂S environment. For sour service, select L80 13Cr, C90, T95 series.
FAQ
Q1: What is N80Q, what is the difference between N80Q and N80‑1?
A1: Both are N80 grade in API 5CT. N80‑1 is normalized & tempered; N80Q is quenched & tempered. N80Q has more uniform grain structure, better collapse performance and more stable mechanical property for deeper well. Same yield / tensile range, different heat treatment route.
Q2: Can N80Q be used for sour gas wells with H₂S?
A2: No. N80Q has no SSC resistance requirement. For sour service, please select L80, C90, T95, C110 sour grades.
Q3: What threads can you supply for N80Q casing?
A3: Standard BTC buttress thread; we also supply LC, semi-premium and full premium connections (VAM TOP, Hydril etc.) as buyer's drawing.
Q4: What documents will you provide for customs clearance?
A4: MTC mill test certificate (EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 optional), API monogram certificate, packing list, invoice, B/L, SGS/BV/CCIC inspection report on request.
Q5: What is your delivery length?
A5: Standard R1, R2, R3 as API 5CT. Cut pup joints (short lengths) available.
Q6: What inspection do you do before shipment?
A6: Full hydrostatic test, UT ultrasonic test, MT magnetic particle inspection for threaded ends, tensile & hardness test per heat batch, dimension & thread gauging check. Third-party witness inspection is accepted.
Q7: Can we buy sample pipe for test?
A7: Yes, sample pieces or full-length sample casing can be supplied; sample freight cost on buyer side normally.
Q8: What is your port of loading?
A8: Tianjin Port, Qingdao Port, Shanghai Port.
