1、Designation: A 353/A 353M 04Standard Specification forPressure Vessel Plates, Alloy Steel, 9 Percent Nickel,Double-Normalized and Tempered1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 353/A 353M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in
2、the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers 9 % nickel steel plates,double-normalized and tempered,
3、intended particularly forwelded pressure vessels for cryogenic service.1.2 Plates produced under this specification are subject toimpact testing at 320F 195C or at such other tempera-tures as are agreed upon.1.3 The maximum thickness of plates is limited only by thecapacity of the material to meet t
4、he specific mechanicalproperty requirements; however, current mill practice normallylimits this material to 2 in. 50 mm max.1.4 This material is susceptible to magnetization. Use ofmagnets in handling after heat treatment should be avoided ifresidual magnetism would be detrimental to subsequent fabr
5、i-cation or service.1.5 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 the other. Com
