Cutting of carbon steel pipe, materials A106 and API5L X65 by acetylene gas torch.
Is there any differnet for flame cutting temp if the strength is higher.
Any advise is highly appreciated

An experienced burner/cutter/pipefitter will see no difference in either material while cutting. If one does a good clean cut there will be no discernible in the slag/dross on the cut surface.
