High-quality ASTM A516 Grade 60 carbon steel pressure‑vessel plate manufactured for moderate- and lower-temperature service where good notch toughness and weldability are required. The material is silicon‑killed and produced to fine‑grain practice to improve through‑thickness properties and reduce the risk of lamellar tearing in heavy weldments.
Key features
- Conforms to ASTM A516 Grade 60 chemical and mechanical requirements for pressure‑vessel plate
- Good weldability using common arc‑welding processes; preheating may be required for thicker sections and lower ambient temperatures
- Low sulphur content and clean steel‑making practice for improved through‑thickness properties
- Impact (notch toughness) testing available where required (note: impact testing requirements typically apply to plates up to certain thicknesses — confirm project requirements)
- Common applications: pressure vessels, boilers, storage tanks, heat exchangers and other welded fabrications requiring reliable toughness and strength
Additional information for buyers
- Equivalent references (approx.): HII (DIN 17155) and P265GH may be used as regional equivalents; verify suitability for your design and local code requirements
- Mill test certificates and material test reports available on request
- For fabrication: calculate carbon equivalent (CE) from actual chemical composition on the mill test certificate and follow project welding/preheat specifications and applicable welding codes
- Available sizes, thicknesses, cutting, plate finish and custom processing (e.g., beveling, cutting to length) can be supplied to meet project requirements — send detailed RFQ with required dimensions, quantity and delivery terms
If you would like exact chemical and mechanical test values, certificate copies or a formal quotation (RFQ), please provide the required dimensions, quantities and delivery port so we can prepare a detailed offer.
