Overview of Pressure Vessel Steel Plate

Pressure vessel steel plate covers carbon steel and alloy steel grades, which are designed for use in making pressure vessels, boilers, heat exchangers and any other vessels and tanks that to store liquid or gas at high pressures. It includes applications like below or similar:
Crude Oil Storage Tanks
Natural Gas Storage Tanks
Chemicals and Liquid Storage Tanks
Firewater Tanks
Diesel Storage Tanks
Gas Cylinders for Welding
Gas Cylinders for Cooking in peoples daily life
Oxygen Cylinders for Diving

three groups

Steel plates material used for pressure vessels can be divided into three groups.
● Carbon Steel Pressure Vessel Grades
Carbon steel pressure vessel steel plates are general use vessel plates that includes several standards and grades.
ASTM A516 Gr 70/65/60 Steel Plate
Used in Moderate & Low Temperature
ASTM A537 CL1, CL2 Steel Plate
Heat-treated With Higher Strength than A516
ASTM A515 Gr 65, 70
For Intermediate & Higher Temperature
ASTM A283 Grade C
Low & Intermediate Strength Steel Plate
ASTM A285 Grade C
For Fusion Welded Pressure Vessels in as rolled Condition

Pressure Vessel Steel provides premium quality carbon steel plate for boiler and pressure vessel fabrication which is perfectly suited to the high standards set by the oil, gas, and petrochemical equipment, Octal stocks a wide range of dimensions of ASTM A516 GR70, A283 Grade C, ASTM A537 CL1/CL2.

● Low Alloy Pressure Vessel Grades
With adding alloy elements like chromium, molybdenum, or nickel will increase steel heat and corrosion resistances. These plates also known as Chrome Moly Steel Plates.
ASTM A387 Crade11, 22 Steel Plate
Chromium-Molybedenum Alloy Steel Plate

The material grades that between pure carbon steel pressure vessel grades and stainless steel plates. Typically standards is ASTM A387, 16Mo3 these steels have improved corrosion and temperature resistance over the standard carbon steels but without the cost of stainless steels (due to their lower nickel and chromium content).

● Stainless Steel Vessel Grades
By adding the certain percent of chromium, nickel and molybdenum, will increase highly resistant of stainless steel plates, for to use in critical applications that require highly resistant to the environment. Such as used in food or chemical industries.
The manufacture of pressure vessels is tightly regulated as a result of the risks involved and as a consequence the materials that can be used in vessels is also tightly specified. The most common specifications for pressure vessel steels are the EN10028 standards – which are European in origin – and the the ASME/ASTM standards which are from the US.
JINDALAI can also supply high specification pressure vessel steel plate used in the oil and gas industry and specifically in steel plate resistant to Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC).
