Hot rolled A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet vs stainless steel

In the first quarter of 2020, the output of EU steel pipe industry decreased by 13.3% year-on-year, but it is considered to be flexible due to its close connection with the A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet construction industry. However, demand for large welded pipes is expected to remain weak in the oil and gas industry. In 2020, the steel consumption of steel pipe industry will account for 13% of EU A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet steel consumption market. Uestf predicts that in 2020, the output of steel pipe industry will continue the downward trend of 2019, with a year-on-year decrease of 19.4%, and a rebound of 9.8% in 2021.

The business department is mainly responsible for communicating with customers, from the manufacturing of steel plates, steel pipes and other products, knowing customers' needs and processing conditions, etc. within the time agreed with customers, the delivery time is short, the price is the most competitive, and the service is the best. Their responsibilities are to deal with customer consultation, solve customer problems, update production plans, and instruct the logistics department to deliver products to customers.

15CrMo alloy plate is a heat-resistant steel with pearlite structure, which has high thermal strength (δb≥440MPa) and oxidation resistance at high temperatures, and has a certain resistance to hydrogen corrosion. Due to the high content of Cr, C and other alloying elements in steel, the hardening tendency of A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet and 15CrMo alloy plate is obvious and the weldability is poor. After welding, local high temperature tempering treatment should be carried out. The heat treatment process of 15CrMo alloy plate is as follows: the temperature rise rate is 200°C/h, the temperature is raised to 715°C for 1 hour and 15 minutes, the temperature drop rate is 100°C/h, and the temperature is reduced to 300°C before air cooling.

The proportion of main elements in Q345 steel is basically the same as that in 16Mn steel, the difference is that V, Ti, Nb microalloy elements are added. A small amount of V, Ti, Nb alloy elements can refine the grains, greatly improve the toughness of the steel, and greatly improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of the steel. Because of this, the thickness of A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet, Q345 steel plate can be made larger. Therefore, the comprehensive mechanical properties of Q345 steel should be better than that of 16Mn steel, especially its low temperature properties. The allowable stress of Q345 steel is slightly higher than that of 16Mn steel.

BBN had provided A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet Hardox plates for more than 15 years for widely applied in coal mining machinery, cement equipment, road construction machinery, engineering machinery, dump trucks, metallurgical area and port fields. In 2016,we brought our customer to visit our A387 grade 12 class 1 pressure vessel steel sheet NM400 steel plate producing line and our Shanghai warehouse for 30000 tons plate and structure. As a result, Our client purchased 500 tons NM 400 as first order, which is shipped by 3 times. In future, BBN will always guarantee that all the delivery condition for Hardox plate provided will be with quenching and tempering, which is the best delivery type according GBT 24186 standard.
