ISO 11960:2010 specifies the technical delivery conditions for steel pipes (casing, tubing and pup joints), coupling stock, coupling material and accessory material and establishes requirements for three product specification levels (PSL-1, PSL-2, PSL-3). The requirements for PSL-1 are the basis of ISO 11960:2010. The requirements that define different levels of standard technical requirements for PSL-2 and PSL-3, for all grades except H-40, L-80 9Cr and C110, are contained in Annex H. For pipes covered by ISO 11960:2010, the sizes, masses and wall thicknesses as well as grades and applicable end-finishes are listed. By agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer, ISO 11960:2010 can also be applied to other plain-end pipe sizes and wall thicknesses. ISO 11960:2010 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) and integral tubing connections (IJ). For such connections, ISO 11960:2010 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. ISO 11960:2010 can also be applied to tubulars with connections not covered by ISO/API standards. The four groups of products to which ISO 11960:2010 is applicable include the following grades of pipe: group 1, including all casing and tubing in grades H, J, K, N and R; group 2, including all casing and tubing in grades C, L, M and T; group 3, including all casing and tubing in grade P; and group 4, including all casing in grade Q. Casing sizes larger than label 1: 4-1/2 but smaller than label 1: 10-3/4 can be specified by the purchaser for use in tubing service. Supplementary requirements that can optionally be agreed between purchaser and manufacturer for non-destructive examination, fully machined coupling blanks, upset
