ASTM A516 Grade 70 is a boiler pressure vessel quality steel that has good weld-ability and excellent notch toughness and is perfect for moderate and lower temperature servrces.
ASTM A516 Grade 70, the material is used extensively by the boiler and pressure vessel fabricators who provide manufacturing support to the petrochemical, oil and gas industries.
ASTM A516 Grade 70 is a steel that offers excellent performance in lower ambient temperature service, has good weld-ability and excellent notch toughness. This is an excellent choice for pressure vessels and boiler fabrication. ASTM A516 Grade 70 steel offers a greater yield and tensile strength when compared to the ASTM A516 Grade 60.
