ASME SA516 Grade 65 steel (abbreviated as SA516Gr65) is a carbon steel plate for medium and low-temperature pressure vessels. It holds a significant position in the industrial sector due to its exceptional performance and wide range of applications.
Petroleum and Chemical Industry: SA516Gr65 steel plates are widely used in the petroleum and chemical industries for manufacturing medium and low-temperature pressure vessels, storage tanks, reactors, heat exchangers, and other equipment. These devices often operate under high temperatures, high pressures, and corrosive environments, thus requiring materials with high strength, excellent toughness, and good corrosion resistance.
Power Industry: In the power industry, SA516Gr65 steel plates are primarily used for manufacturing pressure vessels for equipment such as boilers and turbines in thermal power plants and nuclear power stations. These devices need to withstand high-temperature and high-pressure working environments, thus demanding materials with outstanding strength and high-temperature resistance.
Food Industry: SA516Gr65 steel plates are also used for manufacturing pressure vessels for various food processing equipment, which must meet strict hygiene standards and corrosion resistance requirements.
Other Fields: Additionally, SA516Gr65 steel plates can be used for manufacturing structural components in shipbuilding, bridge construction, and building sectors, as well as for equipment such as liquefied petroleum gas cylinders, liquefied gas tanks, high-pressure water pipes, and turbine casings. In these applications, the high strength, excellent toughness, and good welding performance of SA516Gr65 steel plates are fully utilized.
