The results of studies of the properties, microstructure and nonmetallic inclusions (NI) in the pipe steel, microalloyed by boron were presented. Experienced rolled metal samples containing 0.005-0.009% boron, characterized by a low content of NI, the volume concentration of which is reduced from 0.035% to 0.016-0.025%. Phase composition NI is represented mainly by small oxysulfide and sulfide inclusions. NI size is 0-5 micrometers in experimental metal rolling and comprises 99.2-99.7% versus 80.6% in the comparative metal. The structure of boron steel is finely dispersed and is represented mainly ferritic phase with a grain of 12.0-12.5 points. Mechanical properties experienced rolled metal thickness of 10 mm tubular steel 17G1SU due to the reduction of pollution NI is represented by small, evenly distributed over the metal volume of oxide and oxysulfide inclusions, the formation of fine ferrite structure and boron present in the form of the introduction of the solution into the lattice and, of α-Fe, provided the release of higher grade X80 strength.
