A516 Grade 70 Steel Plates for Pressure Vessel Bodies

Supply-grade carbon steel plates manufactured to ASTM A516 / ASME SA516 for use in welded pressure vessels and boilers. Available in Grades 60 and 70, these plates are produced and tested to meet the notch-toughness and impact-resistance requirements typical for pressure-retaining applications.

Key features

• Conforms to ASTM A516 / ASME SA516 standards (Grades 60 & 70)
• Supplied normally as hot-rolled plate for thicknesses up to 40 mm; thicker plates can be produced to order
• Impact-tested (notch toughness) to meet pressure-vessel service demands
• High tensile strength and good impact resistance at the required service temperatures
• Uniform surface finish and durable, corrosion-resistant performance in typical service environments

Typical sizes & supply information

• Typical dimension range (subject to stock and production capacity): thickness up to 260 mm; widths 1,000–4,000 mm; lengths up to 18,000 mm
• Minimum order quantity: 5 pieces
• Delivery: prompt from stock or 10–40 days for production
• Mill Test Certificate (MTC) available on request
• Payment terms: T/T or L/C

Applications

• Boiler and power plant pressure vessels
• Petrochemical and refinery pressure equipment
• Storage tanks and other welded pressure-retaining structures

Quality & testing

Plates are supplied with impact testing where required by specification. Material test certificates are available to verify chemical composition, mechanical properties and test results. Additional inspection, heat-treatment or third-party certification can be arranged per buyer requirements.

Ordering notes

Specify required grade (A516 Grade 60 or Grade 70), exact thickness/width/length, any required impact-temperature, and MTC/inspection requirements when requesting a quote or placing an RFQ.
