About Boiler Steel SA516 Grade 70 Plates

The A516 / SA516 standard, its full name is "Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, for Moderate- and Lower-Temperature Service, is widely used by designers and engineers in many market sectors particularly outside of Europe. You may also see the following variations:

Other Details:

ASTM A516 Gr. 60N or ASME SA516 Gr. 60N the "N is added to show that the steel is normalised
ASTM A516M or ASME SA516M the "M indicates that the material is certified in metric units

We are also stockists of plates manufactured and certified to:

ASTM A516 Gr. 65 ASME SA516 Gr. 65
ASTM A516 Gr. 70 ASME SA516 Gr. 70

ASME SA516 Gr. 60 / ASTM A516 Gr. 60 - the specification:

A516 / SA516 is a remarkably straightforward standard in its basic form with just five key chemical elements specified along with three mechanical properties.

Edge types, thickness, and surface finish can be tailored as per order requirements. Plates are delivered with standard seaworthy packing and can be coated for enhanced corrosion resistance.

Certified Quality and Inspection Assurance

Each plate is supplied with EN 10204 3.1/3.2 quality certificates. Customers can request impact testing at specific temperatures or third-party inspections. The manufacturer ensures strict adherence to international standards for material composition, mechanical properties, and surface quality.

FAQ's of Boiler Steel SA516 Grade 70 Plates:

Q: How are SA516 Grade 70 Plates manufactured and delivered?

A: SA516 Grade 70 Plates are hot rolled and supplied in as-rolled, normalized, or stress-relieved conditions depending on client requirements. They are packed using standard seaworthy materials to ensure safe delivery and can be custom-cut to the specified dimensions.

Q: What are the primary uses of SA516 Grade 70 Plates?

A: These plates are primarily used in boilers, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and the oil & gas industry due to their high strength, good formability, and elevated temperature resistance. Their properties make them suitable for critical fabrication and construction projects.

Q: When should impact testing be requested for SA516 Grade 70 Plates?

A: Impact testing is recommended if the plates are to be used in low-temperature or highly demanding applications where additional toughness is a requirement. The test can be performed at specified temperatures upon request.

Q: Where are SA516 Grade 70 Plates typically available and what are the size options?

A: These plates are available from exporters, importers, manufacturers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers, particularly in India. Widths and lengths can be customized, commonly up to 12,000mm x 3,000mm, with thickness ranging from 5mm to 150mm.

Q: What quality certifications do SA516 Grade 70 Plates come with?

A: Every plate is supplied with EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 quality certificates and is eligible for third-party inspection to ensure compliance with international standards.

Q: How can SA516 Grade 70 Plates benefit my fabrication project?

A: Their high yield and tensile strength provide reliability in pressure-retaining applications, while good formability and machinability ease fabrication. Plates can also be supplied with anti-corrosive coatings for enhanced durability, and full traceability is maintained for quality control.
