FAQ

What material is equivalent to A285?

ASTM is a high-pressure steel grade whose equivalent European grade is the P235GH, with British standard having the 161 Gr. 360/164 Gr. 360 grade.

What is the specification of ASTM A285?

ASTM A285 specification is the Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, Low- and Intermediate-Tensile Strength intended for fusion-welded pressure vessels. Three grades having different strength levels are available in thicknesses up to 2", inclusively.

What is the difference between A285 and A36 steel?

A285 Grade C has low to medium tensile strength between 380 to 515 MPa, whereas the tensile strength of A36 material ranges between 400 to 500 Mpa. This is due to the variation in their chemical composition.

What is the difference between ASTM A285 and A516?

ASTM A516 offers higher strength and is suitable for moderate-to-high pressure applications, while ASTM A285 is cost-effective and ideal for low-pressure environments. ASTM A516 and ASTM A537 are specifically designed for high-temperature and pressure vessel applications.
