ASTM A516 GRADE 60 PLATES / ASME SA516 GRADE 60 PLATES

 

Are you in search of best high quality plates that you can use for your industrial applications easily and for a long time? If yes, then your search ends here as ASTM A516 Grade 60 Plates / ASME SA516 Grade 60 Plates are the right option for you. These plates are considered best and ideal for pressure vessels and tank fabrication where the improved toughness is required. Well, if we talk about its specification, these plates are manufactured in accordance with the ASTM A 516 GR. 60 Plate and supplied to every industry in rolled form and the size of plate varies from 40mm and the thickness is often available in normalized condition.

ASTM A516 Gr. 60 is a boiler plate to ASTM A516 / A516M. This is the ASME/ASTM standard for pressure vessel steel plate for use at low and medium temperatures; typically where improved Charpy V-notch testing is important. Simply put these plates are remaining tough when holding low temperature fluids or gases under pressure.

This grade of plates is considered best due to its high tensile strength, uniform surface, durability, and temperature resistance. There are several manufacturers who manufacture these plates and offer them to their reliable esteemed clients and customers at a reasonable rate. Furthermore, these plates are well tested and inspected by quality expertise and inspection agencies who in turn offer test certificates. These plates are tested in accordance with the international and national standard and specification with dual certified NACE HIC tests. These plates can easily be used in different temperatures and environment no matter whether it's high or low.

At New Arise Metal we stock large numbers of ASTM A516 Grade 60 steel plates to ensure that we always have high availability of plates to meet customers’ requirements.

 

ASTM A516 Grade 60 / ASME SA 516 Grade 60 :

ASTM A516 Grade 60 is a boiler and pressure vessel quality steel which is ideal for moderate and lower temperature service. The material is used extensively by industrial boiler and pressure vessel fabricators who provide manufacturing support to the oil, gas and petrochemical industry. The steel has good weldability and excellent notch toughness.

At New Arise Metal, we keep a healthy stock of ASTM A516 Grade 60 carbon steel plates. These plates come with mill certification in compliance with EN10204 3.1 or EN10204 3.2 and are hard stamped and fully traceable.

Some is also used for skid mounted pressure vessels and modules on production platforms and much is used in refineries and downstream processes.

 

Specification for ASTM A516 GR. 60 Plates :
Well, talking about Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, for Moderate and Lower Temperature Service, these plates are manufactured in accordance with the ASTM A516 GR.60 grade. The thickness of these plates is approx 8mm to 100mm; whereas plate's width varies from 1500mm to 3500mm. You can get these plates in varied shapes and sizes as per your requirement and demand from a reliable vendor. The length of this grade plates varies from 3000mm to 8000mm and plate surface is embossed, hairline, mirror or sand plain. These plates are even available with hot rolled finishing. ASTM A516 Grade 60 IBR and Non-IBR Oblique Form.

 

Tests and certifications :
Have you ever noticed how these plates sustain their quality and durability for a long time? If not, then it is important to note that these plates come across various tests and inspections that help the manufacturer to check the quality of plates. These tests are Flattening Test, Hardness Test, Charpy V-Notch Impact Test, High –Temperature Tension Test, IBR Test, Ultrasonic Test and more. With it, manufacturers offer various certificates like hardness test certificate and third-party inspection report.

 

ASTM A516 Grade 60 Carbon Steel Plate Specifications :

  • Width:1000mm-4500mm
  • Thickness:5mm-150mm
  • Length:3000mm-18000mm
  • Supply Condition:As Rolled, Normalized Rolling, Furnace Normalizing, Vacuum Degassing, Simulated Post-Weld Heat Treatment or as per customer requirement.
  • Impact tested :-52° C
