1. Product Overview
Pressure vessel steel plate is a special high-safety hot-rolled medium and heavy steel plate strictly manufactured for pressure-bearing special equipment. It features high strength, excellent toughness, fatigue resistance, impact resistance, outstanding weldability and stable performance under high temperature and high pressure. With extremely low internal impurities and high-level non-destructive testing, the plate avoids lamellar tearing and bursting risks. It is widely used in boilers, storage tanks, pressure vessels and chemical pressure-bearing equipment, serving as essential safety steel materials for energy, chemical and power industries.
2. Main Material Grades and Application Conditions
2.1 Chinese Standard Grades (GB/T 713)
Q245R: General grade for low temperature and low pressure, excellent toughness and weldability, suitable for ordinary storage tanks, atmospheric vessels and heat exchangers.
Q345R: Most widely used mainstream grade with balanced comprehensive performance, applied to boiler drums, gas storage tanks and chemical reactors.
Q370R: High-strength grade for high-pressure equipment, thick-wall pressure vessels and large storage tanks.
Q345R-Z35: Z-direction performance steel plate with anti-tearing property, specially used for thick plate welding and heavy-duty high-pressure equipment.
2.2 Low-temperature Resistant Grades
09MnNiDR: Ultra-low temperature impact resistance at -70℃, suitable for LNG storage tanks and cryogenic chemical equipment.
2.3 High-temperature Resistant Alloy Grades
15CrMoR / 12Cr1MoVR: High temperature and creep resistance, used for high-temperature boilers, steam equipment and petrochemical reactors.

4. Core Product Advantages
High Safety Factor: Strict control of sulfur and phosphorus impurities, dense internal structure, no delamination or porosity, ensuring no bursting under pressure.
Excellent Weldability: Low risk of welding cold and hot cracks, ideal for tank rolling and splicing welding.
Wide Temperature Adaptability: Stable from -70℃ ultra-low temperature to 550℃ high temperature, no brittle fracture under temperature alternation.
Strong Fatigue Resistance: Not easy to deform or fail under long-term alternating high-pressure load.
High Testing Qualification Rate: Piece-by-piece ultrasonic testing to meet special equipment safety standards.
Powerful Deep Processing Performance: Support cutting, rolling, bending, beveling, welding and heat treatment.
