Data Sheet P 550: Technical Information

This document provides technical information on P550 non-magnetic drill collars. It describes the chemical composition, mechanical properties, magnetic properties, and corrosion resistance of the material. Key points include that P550 is an austenitic manganese-chromium steel with high nitrogen content. It has minimum yield strengths of 140-130 ksi depending on diameter, tensile strength of 150 ksi, and elongation and reduction of area of at least 20% and 50%. The material has high resistance to stress corrosion cracking and pitting corrosion. Each collar undergoes 100% magnetic and ultrasonic inspection to ensure quality.

1. CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
„P550“ is a special nonmagnetic, austenitic Mn-Cr-steel with a high nitrogen content.
C Mn Cr Mo N Ni
max. 0,06 20,50-21,60 18,30-20,00 min. 0,50 min. 0,60 min. 1,40

2. MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
Following mechanical properties (tested at room temperature) are achieved by a special
cold-working process over the full length of the collar:
Yield Strength (min.): OD up to 91/4“ 140 ksi 965 N/mm²
0,2%-offset method OD 91/2“ and larger 130 ksi 900 N/mm²
Tensile Strength (min.): 150 ksi 1035 N/mm²
Elongation (min.): 20% 20%
Reduction of area (min.): 50% 50%
Impact energy (min.): 60 ft.lb 82 J
Endurance Strength / N=105 (min.): ± 80 ksi ± 550 N/mm²
Hardness Brinell: 350-430 HB 350-430 HB
3. MAGNETIC PROPERTIES
Relative permeability: < 1,005.

4. CORROSION RESISTANCE
- Transgranular SCC: Prevented by special surface treatments (Hammer peening, roller
burnishing, shot peening).
- Intergranular SCC: The occurrence of material sensitization is prevented by quenching
after warmforging. Each collar is tested according to ASTM A 262, Pract.A and E, last edition.
- Pitting Corrosion: Due to a high chromium- and nitrogen content a high resistance to
pitting corrosion is given.

5. NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING
- Magnetic inspection: Drill collars are 100% tested by a proprietary probe-testing process
using a Förster Magnetomat 1.782. (“Hot Spot“-test). Magnetic permeability of each collar is
certified with the printout of probe-testing.
- Ultrasonic inspection: Each collar is ultrasonically inspected over 100% of the volume
according to ASTM E 114, last edition as a minimum level.

P550 Non-Magnetic Drill Collars meet all requirements of API Spec. 7.1, last edition.
All tests are carried out according to ASTM-Standards, last editions.
