Steel Sheet & Plate & Boiler Plate,Q245R、Q345R、Q370R、15CrMoR、12Cr1MoVR、13MnNiMoR、14Cr1MoR
1. Product Overview
Boiler plate, fully known as special steel plate for boilers and pressure vessels, is a special medium and heavy plate used for pressure-bearing special equipment, implemented under the national mandatory standard GB 713-2014, which replaces the old grades 20G and 16MnG. It is specially designed for working conditions with high temperature, high pressure and alternating fatigue.
The steel plate serves under medium-high temperature and high pressure for a long time, bearing pressure, impact, cyclic fatigue and corrosion of water vapor medium. Its core performance requirements include high purity, stable high-temperature strength, excellent low-temperature impact toughness and superior weldability & cold bending formability. It is the core raw material for power station boilers, chemical pressure vessels and heat exchange equipment.
