What is ASTM A612M steel use

ASTM A612M steel is subject to standard ASTM A612/A612M, the specification covers killed carbon-manganese-silicon steel plates intended for welded pressure vessels in service at moderate and lower temperatures. From the definition, we can understand the main ASTM A612M steel use is for pressure vessels.

ASTM A612M steel plates are normally supplied in the as-rolled condition. ASTM A612M steel plates may also be ordered normalized or stress relieved, or both. ASTM A612M steel shall conform to the required chemical compositions, so that it can guarantee A612M steel performance and ASTM A612M steel use.
