What is A387 grade 11 material?

The ASTM A387 specification is the Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Alloy Steel, Chromium-Molybdenum intended primarily for use in welded boilers and pressure vessels designed for elevated temperature service. SSAB can supply A387 Grade 11 to the tension test requirements for Class 1 and/or Class 2.

 

What is the composition of A387 steel?

Composition: ASTM A387 steel plates typically contain chromium (up to 9% or more) and molybdenum (up to 2.25% or more), which enhance their strength and corrosion resistance at high temperatures.
