Inspection Requirement

Inspection Requirement

When You Purchase A Batch Of J55 Or K55 Oil Casing, We Need To Pay Attention To The Following Inspections:

  • General Inspection: Dimensional Inspection, Appearance Inspection, And Marking Inspection.
  • Chemical Composition: Mainly Inspecting C, Mn, P, And S Elements.
  • Mechanical Property: Tensile Strength, Yield Strength, Elongation, And Hardness Test.
  • Other Test:Hydraulic Pressure Test, Ultrasonic Testing, Magnetic Particle Or Eddy Current Testing, And Radiographic Testing.

We Can Almost Treat J55 And K55 As The Same Material, But There Are Still Slight Differences Between The Two. The Minimum Tensile Strength Requirement Of K55 Is Higher Than That Of J55, Which Is 655 Mpa (95,000 Psi). Therefore, If You Have A Little Requirement For Performance, Please Choose K55 Oil Casing.
