16Mo3 plate is pressure vessel steel that is used in applications with elevated temperatures according to EN10028-2. 16Mo3 plate has improved mechanical properties and better creep resistance allowing it to be used up to 500°C. EN10028 specified pressure vessel grade 16Mo3 plate is ideal for a wide range of uses where the plates will have to perform at a high temperature continuously.
Typical applications for EN10028 specified pressure vessel grade 16Mo3 plate include a wide range of power plant equipment, industrial exhaust, venting and flare systems and waste recycling and incineration plants. The pressure vessel grade 16Mo3 plate is also valuable for machinery where parts are likely to remain hot for an extended period. In power plants, 16Mo3 plate is regularly used in boilers, superheater tubes, collector and hot steam pipes, stove tubes and conduits. EN10028 specified pressure vessel grade 16Mo3 plate is also used in various types of heat exchanger in both the upstream and downstream oil and gas industry.
