Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, Low and Intermediate Tensile Strength to ASTM A 285/A 285M Standard

Use:

Pressure Vessel Plates are intended for fusion-welded pressure vessels. However Grade C, is commonly used as Structural Steel. Plates under this specification are available in three grades having different strength levels as detailed below:

A285 Pressure Vessel Plate Chemical Properties

	Grade C
Carbon, max	0.28
Manganese, max	0.90
Phosphorus, max	0.035
Sulphur, max	0.035

A285 Pressure Vessel Plate Mechanical Properties

	Grade C
Tensile Strength:	55,000 75,000 psi [380 - 515 MPa]
Min. Yield Point:	30,000psi [205 MPa]
Elongation in 8":	23% min
Elongation in 2":	27% min

When the thickness is less than 5/16 in(8mm), See Specification A20/A20M for elongation adjustment.

We can supply:

Thickness from 6mm to 150mm (although thicker plates might be manufactured under special order)

Width: from 1,500mm to 4,100mm

Length: from 6,000mm to 20,000mm
