Scope of application
ASTM A537 boiler vessel plate is a steel plate used when the yield strength and tensile strength of ASTM A516 cannot meet the requirements of pressure equipment such as boilers and pressure vessels in the oil, natural gas, and petroleum industries. ASTM A537 boiler vessel plate has good notch toughness, which is widely used in API 650 and API 620 storage tanks, medium and low temperature pressure vessels, etc.
