ASTM A387 GRADE 5 Class 1
A high quality ASTM A387 GRADE 5 Class 1 or chrome molybdenum alloy steel plate intended specifically for use in weldable carbon steel pressure vessels at elevated temperatures. Added molybdenum gives the material greater temperature tensile strength and the chromium provides improved corrosion resistance.
