N2 - The combined effect of microstructure and crystallographic texture on the toughness anisotropy of API 5L X46 steel was studied. The steel exhibited microstructural banding along the 0° direction and near random texture in the material. The mechanical properties were characterized by the use of tensile and impact toughness samples oriented along the rolling direction (0°, 45°, and 90°). For impact toughness, anisotropic behavior was observed, where the 0° oriented samples showed lower impact toughness than the 90° and 45° directions, with differences of 25% and 31%, respectively, while the yield strength (YS) showed the lowest values in the 0° oriented samples. The relative variation coefficient (rrv) indicates significant correlation between microstructure, texture, and toughness anisotropy. It was observed that the banding degree and the amount of {110} and {111} oriented grains are directly related to the degree of anisotropy, which high values are the cause of lower mechanical properties.
