Why P235GH steel called A285 grade C Steel?

P235GH is a European specified steel for use in pressure vessels, boilers and heat exchangers, which is also referred to as A285 grade C steel in ASTM A285 / A285M standard.

P235GH chemical composition:

C	Si	Mn	P	S	Cr	Cu	Ni	Mo
≤0.16	≤0.35	0.6-1.2	≤0.025	≤0.01	≤0.3	≤0.3	≤0.3	≤0.08

P235GH mechanical properties:

Grade	Tensile strength Rm	Yield strength YS	Enlongation A(％)
P235GH	350 - 480 MPa at 20 °C	185 - 235 MPa at 20 °C	>24

The composition of this steel makes it ideal for applications where elevated working temperatures are the norm and the material is used by fabricators throughout the oil, gas and petrochemical industry.

P235GH material equivalent in Other International Standards:

The equivalent grade of this type in ASME/ASTM is A285 grade C

In DIN standard, the corresponding material is referred to as 1.0345 type steel.

In British BS standard, the corresponding material is referred to as 141-360 type steel.

In Japanese JIS standard, the corresponding material is referred to as SB410 type steel.
