    Effective May 1, 2019 Manufacturers of Line Pipe Plain End at PSL 2 will have the option to include
    Annex N to their Monogram License for applications requiring longitudinal plastic strain capacity.
    Current licensees shall ensure that products manufactured on and after May 1st 2019 meet the requirements of API 5L 46th edition in order to be monogrammed.
