What is 16Mo3 material?

16Mo3 is a EN10028 specified pressure vessel grade chrome molybdenum steel alloy for use in elevated working temperatures. The material is used as a weldable steel in the fabrication of industrial boilers and steel pressurised vessels found in the oil, gas and chemical industry.

 

What is the ASTM material equivalent to 16Mo3 tube?

EN10216-2 16Mo3 pipe is pressure vessel grade chrome molybdenum alloy steel pipe, and mainly utilized at elevated temperatures in oil refinery piping, steam pipeline, and power plant projects, etc. EN10216-2 16Mo3 pipe ASTM equivalent is ASTM A335 Grade P1, also known as ASME SA335 Grade P1.

 

What is en 10216-2 material?

The EN 10216-2 Pipe is composed with a superior chemical content of nickel, molybdenum, and chromium. They also have stabilizing agents like titanium, vanadium, and niobium embedded in them. This gives the items in this grade enhanced corrosion and oxidation resistance properties.

 

What are the properties of 16Mo3 material?

It has a high-temperature resistance of up to 600 degrees Celsius and is corrosion-resistant. It also has good weldability and formability, making it easy to shape and configure. The material is durable and sturdy, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.

 

Is 16Mo3 carbon steel?

Carbon steel with a little Molybdenum to support medium/high temperatures. These types of steel are for heat-resistant pressure vessels. 16Mo3 steel is characterised by good weldability.
