FAQ
What is SA 387 Grade 11 Class 2 equivalent to?
Sa 387 Gr 11 Equivalent Material is the ASME SA387 in the US markets with the European Union having modules in 13CrMoSi5-5 grade. The Sa 387 Gr 11 Cl 2 Equivalent Material is the SA387-11-2 of the ASME and ASTM standard.
What temperature is SA 387 GR 11?
In the lower end of the temperature range SA 387 Gr 11 (1150 °F min tempering temperature) , and SA 387 Gr 22 (1250 °F min tempering temperature) are used. These grades can be specified in either class 1 or 2 and can also be provided in the Normalized & Tempered or Quenched and Tempered.
What is the difference between SA 387 GR 11 cl1 and CL2?
In conclusion, SA 387 Grade 11 Class 2 offers higher tensile and yield strength, along with improved impact resistance, compared to Class 1. This makes CL2 more suitable for critical and high-stress applications, especially in elevated-temperature service environments.
What is the difference between SA 516 GR 70 and SA 387 GR 11?
Compared to carbon steel plates, SA 387 Gr 11 plates offer superior corrosion and oxidation resistance while maintaining good tensile and yield strength. Compared to SA 516 Gr 70 plates, SA 387 Gr 11 plates have better resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making them a better choice for high-temperature environments.
