ASTM A542 Grade E alloy steel plates for pressure vessels

A542 Grade E

A542 Grade E in the standard A-542/A-542M is a kind of Mo-V alloy steel plates material used to fabric high temperature pressure vessels. A542 have Five grades or levels. They are : grade A, grade B, grade C, grade D, grade E . A542 Grade E need to be done the (Quenching + Tempering ) heat-treatment to meet the property requirement in the standard ASTM A-542/A-542M.

Note : ① In A 542/A 542M-82 standard and the earlier standard, the steel plates whose thickness ≤ 125mm, C must be ≤ 0.15%
② Ca can be replace by REM as the agreement with manufacturer and buyer, if like this, then the total amount of REM should be stated.
