ASTM A516 Gr.70 Steel Mechanical Properties

ASTM A516 Gr.70 pressure vessels steel plates belong to the moderate or low carbon steel plates for pressure vessels, implementation of the ASME standard. In order to meet the different requirements of users on boiler and pressure vessel steel plates, ease of management, for the steel grades s and p requirements are divided into ⅰ, ⅱ, ⅲ of the three levels.
The ASTM A516 specification covers carbon steel plates intended primarily for service in welded pressure vessels where improved notch toughness is important. According to different strength levels, the plates are available in four grades: Grades 55, 60, 65, and 70.

Mechanical properties of ASTM A516 Gr.70

A516 Gr.70 pressure vessel plate has tensile strength of 70,000 pounds per square inch, which usually referred to a greater than 482. Main element content C Mn Si, P, S control determines its performance. We can supply A516 Gr.70 plates testing and materials standards, low temperature standard specification for pressure vessel plates, carbon steel plate.
