ASTM A516 / SA516 plate material is the standard specification for pressure vessel fabrication.  ASTM A537 / SA537 plate material is heat-treated, carbon-manganese silicon steel.  ASTM A553 / SA553 plate material is used in the fabrication of cryogenic pressure vessels.


Plate can be cut to size or shape required. Also available to JIS, DIN, EN standards.

Thickness Size: 6mm – 150mm

A516 Grade 60 and Grade 65 high quality carbon steel plate material for pressure vessel fabrication exhibit good weldability and notch toughness. A516 gr. 65 has greater tensile and yield strength when compared with A516 gr. 60.  This material offers excellent performance in moderate to low temperature services. Used extensively for sour service, H2S applications in the oil and gas, petrochemical industries.

ASTM A516 Gr.60:  JIS G3118 SGV410,  DIN 17155HII,  BS1501-161-430A,  EN10028 P265GH
ASTM A516 Gr.65:  JIS G 3118 SGV450,  DIN 17155 17 MN 4,  BS1501-224-460A/B,  EN10028 P295GH

A516 Grade 70 plate material is suitable for low temperature application pressure vessels and industrial boilers.
A516 Grade 70 plate material is suitable for lower than ambient temperature applications. A516 Grade 70 offers greater tensile and yield strength than grade 65 and can operate at even lower temperatures. This material is also used extensively for Pipe Shoes, Gussets and Base Plates etc.

A537 Class 1 is normalized, heat treated and displays greater yield and tensile strength that the more common A516 grades. Ideal for Pressure Vessels, Boilers, API 650, and API 620 storage tanks in the Oil & Gas and Petrochemical Industries.
A537 Class 1:  ASME SA537 Class 1, JIS G3124 SEV245,  EN10028 P355N

ASTM A537 Class 2

A537 Class 2 exhibits higher yield and tensile strength than Class 1. A537 Class 2 is a high strength quenched and tempered alloy steel with excellent cold forming characteristics and weldability.  Commonly used in pressure vessels, boilers, API650, and API620 storage tank fabrication.
A537 Class 2:  ASME SA537 Class 2, JIS G3115 SPV450,  EN10028 P460N

ASTM A553 Type 1
A553 Type 1 grade covers 9% nickel alloy steel plates that are used in the fabrication of cryogenic pressure vessels. A553 Type 1 is capable of operating at temperatures as low as -196°C, and has high levels of strength and weldability.
A martensitic steel when it is quenched or tempered up to 100mm thickness. Commonly used for containing or transporting cryogenic gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, and argon.

A553 Type 1:  ASME SA553 type 1, JIS G3127 SL9N590,  DIN X7Ni9

ASTM A553 Type 2

A553 Type 2 grade covers 8% nickel alloy steel plates that are used in the fabrication of cryogenic pressure vessels. A553 Type 2 is capable of operating at temperatures as low as -170°C, and has high levels of strength and weldability.
A martensitic steel when it is quenched or tempered up to 100mm thickness. Commonly used for containing or transporting cryogenic gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, and argon.
