ASTM A517 Steel Plate

ASTM A517 steel plate is a high-strength, quenched and tempered alloy steel plate meant for use in fusion welded boilers and other pressure vessels. Steel Warehouse supplies ASTM A517 Grade A, B, H, S, F, E, & Q for your application.

• A
• B
• H
• S
• F
• E
• Q

• Strength, Yield Strength ksi (MPa), Tensile Strength ksi (MPa): Strongest, 105-135 (725-930)         
• Formability: % Elongation: Low, 14-16%
  For better formability consider Drawing Steel
• Joining – Fair
  Design and welding must account for stresses.
• Corrosion Resistance – Good
  Galvanizing will slow corrosion.   For longer life in harsh chemical conditions, consider Galvanized or Coated Steel
• Chemistry – Low-medium carbon, low-medium manganese, with silicon
• Cost – Higher. 
  Good when thinner or stronger steels will add value.
