The maximum thickness of A203 Grade E pressure plates is limited only by the capacity of the composition to meet the specified mechanical property requirements, however, current practice normally limits the maximum thickness of A203 Grade E boiler plates furnished under 100 mm.
If approved by the purchaser for A203 Gr. E pressure containing parts, cooling rates faster than air cooling are permissible for improvement of the toughness, provided the plates are subsequently tempered at not less than 1100℉[595℃] for not less than ½ h.
