ASTM A516 GR60 equivalent to EN 10028 P265GH

A516 GR60 steel plate is for pressure vessel plates,carbon steel for moderate and low temperature service from US specification ASTM A516/SA516M.

Considering pressure purposes and yield strength and mechanical property minimum values,In standard specification BS EN 10028-2 P265GH steel plate is equivalent to ASTM A516 GR60 steel plate.

Standards and Scope

• ASTM A516 Gr.60 Governed by ASME/ASTM standards (e.g., ASME Section VIII Div.1).

Designed for low-to-moderate temperature applications (-45°C to 345°C), commonly used in oil/gas storage tanks, LNG equipment, and non-fired boiler components .

• EN 10028 P265GH Complies with European EN 10028-2 for non-alloy steels with elevated temperature properties.

Suitable for -50°C to 400°C, ideal for nuclear containment, petrochemical reactors, and high-temperature heat exchangers .

• Key Overlap: Both are categorized as carbon-manganese steels for pressure-bearing components and often receive dual certifications (e.g., ASME + PED)

Chemical Composition and Mechanical Properties

Applications

A516 Gr.60: Oil/gas storage tanks, LNG separators, and non-fired boiler parts .

P265GH: Nuclear reactor components, high-temperature turbine casings, and EU-regulated pressure vessels.
