API 5CT Steel Tube Supplier
Tube Supply is a trusted API 5CT steel supplier providing certified casing, tubing, coupling stock, pup joints, and downhole accessories for use by oil and gas operators. We carry a wide range of grades in tubular form, all of which meet the mechanical and impact testing requirements of API 5CT, including ultrasonic testing.
Whether you need standard casing for a shallow well or high-strength tubing suitable for sour, high-pressure environments, our inventory and global sourcing network enable us to have certified products delivered to your location quickly.
What is API 5CT Steel?
API 5CT is the specification issued by the American Petroleum Institute for seamless and welded steel pipe, which is used as casing and tubing in oil and gas wells, and is generally referred to as OCTG, or oil country tubular goods. Pipe made to this specification undergoes strict chemical composition, mechanical property, and dimensional testing to ensure it can withstand downhole pressures, loads, and corrosive conditions. The various grades are distinguished primarily by yield strength, and in some cases, by resistance to sulfide stress cracking for sour service applications.
API Grades We Supply
J55/K55
Standard strength casing and tubing grade, widely used and cost-effective for shallow to moderately deep wells.
N80
Higher strength than J55, suited for intermediate depth casing and tubing applications.
R95
Intermediate strength grade with enhanced impact toughness for demanding well conditions.
L80
Sour service grade resistant to hydrogen sulfide cracking, common in corrosive downhole environments.
P110
High-strength casing and tubing grade for deep, high-pressure wells.
Q125
One of the highest strength API 5CT grades, used in high-pressure, high-stress wells.
T95
High strength with moderate sour service resistance.
C90/C110/C125
Sour service grades provide an intermediate to high yield strength for casing that is exposed to H2S.
V140/V150
Very high strength grades for high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) wells.
9CR/13CR
Chromium-alloyed grades offering strong corrosion resistance in CO2 and H2S environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
API 5CT pipe is used as casing and tubing in oil and gas wells, along with related products like coupling stock and pup joints, for the purpose of supporting drilling, production, and well completion.
-
L80 is a sour-service grade built to resist hydrogen sulfide cracking, whereas P110 is a higher-strength grade used in deeper wells and in higher-pressure applications but does not have the same sour-service rating.
-
Yes, we carry sour service grades, such as L80, C90, C110, and C125 for wells that have corrosive H2S conditions.
-
We stock API 5CT tube from 2.00” to 27.00” outside diameter, with wall thickness up to 5.00” across all major grades.
