Scope*1.1 This specification2covers two types of 214 Cr-1 Mo andthre

3、e types of Cr-Mo-V alloy steel plates for use in thequenched-and-tempered condition, intended for the fabricationof welded pressure vessels and components.1.2 Material under this specification is available in fivetypes, designated “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” and “E.” Type B isidentical to Type A except for

4、restrictive limits for carbon,phosphorus, sulfur, and nickel. The material is also available infive classes having the following strength levels. Type E isavailable only as Class 4 and 4a.Class Minimum Tensile Strength, ksi MPa1 105 7252 115 7953 95 6554 and 4a 85 5851.3 The maximum thickness of pla

5、tes is limited only by thecapacity of the chemical composition to meet the specifiedmechanical property requirements.1.4 The minimum thickness of plates is limited to316 in. 5mm.1.5 The material is intended to be suitable for fusionwelding. Welding technique is of fundamental importance andit is pre

6、supposed that welding procedures will be in accordancewith approved methods.1.6 These alloy steel plates in the as-rolled condition aresensitive to cracking during flame cutting, transit, and han-dling. They should be shipped in the as-rolled condition onlywith the mutual agreement of the manufactur

7、er and thepurchaser or fabricator.1.7 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents, therefore, each system mustbe used independently of

8、the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with this specifi-cation.2.
