1、Designation: A353/A353M 09Standard Specification forPressure Vessel Plates, Alloy Steel, Double-Normalized andTempered 9 % Nickel1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A353/A353M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of
2、 revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers double-normalized and tem-pered 9 % nickel steel plates intended par
3、ticularly for weldedpressure 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 the specific
4、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 fabri-cation or
