Abstract: An article of manufacture is provided comprising a heat treated high strength low-alloy steel tubular product of the L-80 and N-80 type suitable for use as an oil well tubular member. The composition consists essentially of about 0.1 to 0.4% C, about 0.075 to 0.4% Mo, about 0.002 to 0.03% N, about 0.75 to 1.5% Mn, about 0.1 to 0.4% Si, and the balance essentially iron, the carbon and molybdenum contents being controlled and correlated such that for a carbon content ranging from about 0.1 to 0.25%, the molybdenum content ranges from about 0.075 to 0.25%; and for a carbon content ranging from about 0.25 to 0.4%, the molybdenum content ranges from about 0.2 to 0.4%.

Abstract: Low alloy high strength titanium steel and a process for preparing said steel by solution heat treating and thereafter controlling the cooling rate to the precipitation hardening temperature range required to produce a steel characterized by a yield strength in the range of 60,000 to 120,000 psi and/or by a bendability characteristic demonstrable by a capability of being bent through an arc without cracking to an inside diameter equal to the thickness of the product.
