Generally used in heating surface tubes, headers, economizers, superheaters, reheaters, etc. of high-pressure boilers (working pressure is generally not greater than 9.8Mpa, working temperature is between 450℃-650℃). (P<9.8MPa,450℃)
It is often suitable for seamless carbon steel boiler and superheater steel pipes with minimum wall thickness for high pressure. Carbon steel boiler tube grade: A192
