As a professional steel plate manufacturer and global supplier, GNEE supplies ASTM A387 Grade 11 Class 1 steel plates with stable quality, full certification, and reliable delivery for energy and industrial projects worldwide.

 

Within the first 100 words, it is important to clarify that GNEE is a manufacturer-oriented supplier, not a trading intermediary. Our A387 Grade 11 Class 1 plates are produced under strict process control and supplied in hot rolled condition with clean surface treatment, ensuring excellent weldability and long-term service stability in high-temperature environments.

 

A387 Grade 11 Class 1 Steel Plate Metallurgical Characteristics

 

A387 Grade 11 Class 1 is a fine-grain chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. The alloying elements play a critical role in strengthening and corrosion resistance.

 

Chromium (Cr) provides solid solution strengthening and significantly improves oxidation and corrosion resistance.

 

Molybdenum (Mo) enhances high-temperature strength and improves tempering stability.

 

Fine-grain strengthening improves toughness and long-term structural reliability.

 

With a typical chromium content around 1.25% and molybdenum content around 0.5%, A387 Grade 11 Class 1 steel plates are particularly suitable for high-temperature pressure equipment, including boilers and pressure vessels in oil, gas, and petrochemical industries.

 

A387 Grade 11 Class 1 Cr-Mo Alloy Steel Plate Technique

 

A387 Grade 11 Class 1 Cr-Mo alloy steel plates are manufactured using controlled hot rolling techniques to ensure uniform mechanical performance across the plate thickness.

Technical highlights include:

  • Hot rolled production process
  • Fine grain strengthening structure
  • Stable tempering behavior
  • Thickness capability limited only by mechanical property requirements

 

The maximum plate thickness is determined by the ability of the steel composition and rolling process to meet specified mechanical properties, ensuring consistent performance even in thicker sections.

Chemical Composition of A387 Grade 11 Class 1 Steel Plate

 

The chemical composition of A387 Grade 11 Class 1 steel plate is strictly controlled to balance strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance.

Chemical Composition (%)

C Mn P S Si Cr Mo
0.05–0.17 0.40–0.65 ≤0.035 ≤0.035 0.50–0.80 1.00–1.50 0.45–0.65

This optimized Cr-Mo composition ensures excellent resistance to oxidation, pitting corrosion, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking.

 

Applications of A387 Grade 11 Class 1 Cr-Mo Alloy Steel Plate

 

A387 Grade 11 Class 1 steel plates are primarily intended for welded boilers and pressure vessels designed for elevated temperature service.

Typical applications include:

  • Industrial boilers and boiler drums
  • Pressure vessels and reactors
  • Heat exchangers
  • Oil & gas processing equipment
  • Petrochemical and refinery installation

These applications require materials that can withstand high temperature, pressure, and corrosive environments over long service periods.
