JIS G3103 SB480 is a high-performance steel plate specifically designed for boilers and pressure vessels, and its application scope is very broad. Details are as follows:
I. Major Application Areas
SB480 steel plates are primarily used for manufacturing spherical storage tanks with a capacity of over 50 cubic meters. They can also be used for fabricating single-layer welded containers, multi-layer hot-sleeved welded containers, multi-layer wrapped containers, as well as other second- and third-category containers and low-temperature pressure vessels.
II. Specific Application Scenarios
Oil Industry: Manufacturing storage equipment such as oil and gas tanks, liquefied gas tanks, as well as reactors, heat exchangers, and other equipment used in oil exploration and processing.
Chemical Industry: Used for manufacturing chemical equipment such as reactors, separators, heat exchangers, and containers for storing various chemicals.
Power Station Industry: Utilized in the manufacture of key equipment and components such as boiler steam drums, high-pressure water pipes for hydropower stations, and turbine volutes.
Nuclear Power Industry: Fabricating nuclear equipment such as pressure shells for nuclear reactors to ensure stability and safety in extreme environments.
III. Other Applications
Due to its high strength, good toughness, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature resistance, SB480 steel plates are also widely used in other fields requiring heavy loads, high stress, or harsh environments, such as bridge construction, shipbuilding, and heavy machinery manufacturing.
In summary, JIS G3103 SB480 steel plates play a significant role in multiple industries due to their excellent performance and diverse application areas.
