ASTM A537 Boiler Vessel Plate is a heat-treated carbon-manganese-silicon steel plate used in the manufacture of pressure vessels.ASTM A537 Boiler Vessel Plate is available in three grades, i.e., Grade 1, Grade 2, and Grade 3. Grade 1 ASTM A537 boiler vessel plate is available in thicknesses up to 4 in. [100 mm], while grades 2 and 3 ASTM A537 boiler vessel plate is available in thicknesses up to 6 in. [150 mm]. Grade 1 plate is often supplied normalized, while grades 2 and 3 plates are supplied quenched and tempered, i.e., tempered.
ASTM A537 Boiler Vessel Plate is a steel plate used when the yield and tensile strength of ASTM A516 cannot meet the requirements of boilers, pressure vessels and other pressurized equipment in the oil, gas and petroleum industries. ASTM A537 boiler vessel plate has good notched toughness and is widely used in API 650 and API 620 tanks, medium and low temperature pressure vessels.
