Proprietary Grades

The VA-Series of products are designed for special applications. They may or may not be addressed by the API-Specifications. When the service application is addressed by an API grade, the VA-Series will exceed the API requirements.

The practices available to achieve the stated goals include but are not limited to:

  • Steel with a special chemical composition
  • Special steel-making practices
  • Use of SPC during rolling and heat treatment
  • Reduced tolerances
  • Mechanical properties restricted to a more stringent range
  • Additional testing

Depending on the final use, appropriate processes are taken.
