A285 Pressure Vessel Steel Plate

ASTM A285 Boiler Plate is a common carbon steel used for fusion welding of pressure vessel equipment such as boilers, storage tanks, heat exchangers, etc. ASTM A285 Boiler vessel steel consists of 3 grades: Grade A, Grade B, and Grade C. ASTM A285 boiler vessel plates have good welding performance and can meet the fusion welding
