ASTM A299 Grade B plates are manganese-silicon carbon steel plates engineered for welded boilers, pressure vessels and other high-pressure, high-temperature applications. Supplied killed with a fine austenitic grain size, these plates are produced and tested to meet the mechanical and chemical requirements of ASTM A299 for Grade B material.
Key features
