Introduction
Users of this International Standard are advised that further or differing requirements can be needed for
individual applications. This International Standard is not intended to inhibit a vendor from offering, or the
purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or engineering solutions for the individual application. This
can be particularly applicable where there is innovative or developing technology. Where an alternative is
offered, it is advisable that the vendor identify any variations from this International Standard and provide
details.This International Standard includes requirements of various nature. These are identified by the use of certain
verbal forms: SHALL is used to indicate that a provision is MANDATORY;
SHOULD is used to indicate that a provision is not mandatory, but RECOMMENDED as good practice;
MAY is used to indicate that a provision is OPTIONAL.While efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of the changes indicated, the user of this International
Standard is advised to consider the total technical content and not only the changes identified. The user is
ultimately responsible for recognising any differences between this edition and the previous edition of this
International Standard. ISO expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility for loss or damage resulting from
inappropriate use of this International Standard on the basis of any inaccuracy in the changes identified.

Petroleum and natural gas industries — Steel pipes for use as
casing or tubing for wells
1 Scope
1.1 This International Standard specifies the technical delivery conditions for steel pipes (casing, tubing and
pup joints), coupling stock, coupling material and accessory material.For pipes covered by this International Standard, the sizes, masses and wall thicknesses, as well as, grades
and applicable end-finishes are listed in Tables C.1 and C.2 and Tables E.1 and E.2.
By agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer, this International Standard can also be applied to
other plain-end pipe sizes and wall thicknesses.API Spec 5L pipe may be ordered as casing in accordance with API RP 5C6.
This International Standard is applicable to the following connections in accordance with API Spec 5B:
short round thread casing (SC); long round thread casing (LC);
buttress thread casing (BC);
non-upset tubing (NU);
external upset tubing (EU);
integral tubing (IJ).
For such connections, this International Standard specifies the technical delivery conditions for couplings and
thread protection. Supplementary requirements that can optionally be agreed for enhanced leak resistance
connections (LC) are given in A.9 SR22.This International Standard can also be applied to tubulars with connections not covered by ISO/API
standards.1.2 The products to which this International Standard is applicable include the following grades of pipe: H40,
J55, K55, N80, L80, C90, R95, T95, P110, C110 and Q125.1.3 Casing sizes larger than Label 1: 4-1/2 but smaller than Label 1: 10-3/4 can be specified by the
purchaser to be used in tubing service, see Tables C.1, C.23, C.27 and C.28 or Tables E.1, E.23, E.27 and
E.28.1.4 Supplementary requirements that can optionally be agreed between purchaser and manufacturer for
non-destructive examination, fully machined coupling blanks, upset casing, electric-welded casing, tubing and
pup joints, impact testing, seal ring couplings,enhanced leak resistance, tensile testing, sulfide stress cracking
testing, yield strength, hardenability and hardness testing are given in Annex A.
1.5 This International Standard is not applicable to threading requirements.© ISO 2018 – All rights reserved 1

NOTE Dimensional requirements on threads and thread gauges, stipulations on gauging practice, gauge
specifications, as well as, instruments and methods for inspection of threads are given in API Spec 5B.
2 Conformance2.1 Dual referencing of normative references
In the interests of world-wide application of this International Standard, ISO/TC 67 has decided, after detailed
technical analysis, that certain normative documents listed in Clause 3 and prepared by ISO/TC 67 or other
ISO Technical Committee are interchangeable in the context of the relevant requirement with the relevant
document prepared by the American Petroleum Institute (API), the American Society for Testing and Materials
(ASTM) or the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These latter documents are cited in the running
text following the ISO reference and preceded by “or”, for example “ISO XXXX or API YYYY”. Application of
an alternative normative document cited in this manner will lead to technical results different from the use of
the preceding ISO reference. However, both results are acceptable and these documents are thus considered
interchangeable in practice.2.2 Units of measurement
In this International Standard, data are expressed in both the International System (SI) of units and the United
States Customary (USC) system of units. For a specific order item, it is intended that only one system of units
be used, without combining data expressed in the other system.Products manufactured to specifications expressed in either of these unit systems shall be considered
equivalent and totally interchangeable. Consequently, compliance with the requirements of this International
Standard as expressed in one system provides compliance with requirements expressed in the other system.
For data expressed in the SI, a comma is used as the decimal separator and a space as the thousands
separator. For data expressed in the USC system, a dot (on the line) is used as the decimal separator and a
space as the thousands separator.In the text, data in SI units are followed by data in USC units in parentheses.
Separate tables for data expressed in SI units and USC units are given in Annex C and Annex E respectively.
Figures are contained in Annex D and express data in both SI and USC units.3 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.ISO 80000-1, Quantities and units — Part 1: General
