Free cutting A387 GR.12 CL.2 pressure vessel steel sheet mechanical properties

We are world class steel materials supplier and exporter. Our main steel materials are: carbon and hsla steel, boiler and pressure vessel steel, gas cylinder steel, shipbuilding and offshore platform steel, pipeline steel, weathering steel / corten steel, A387 GR.12 CL.2 pressure vessel steel sheet alloy steel, automobile structure steel, abrasion resistant steel, clad steel, stainless steel etc.. Meanwhile, we also have steel processing center, and can provide cutting, welding, bending, drilling etc. processing for steel materials.

Vanadium mainly exists in the form of carbide in A387 GR.12 CL.2 pressure vessel steel sheet and so on steel. Its main function is to refine the structure and grain size of steel and reduce the strength and toughness of steel. When the solid solution is dissolved at high temperature, the hardenability is increased; conversely, if it is in the form of carbide, the hardenability is reduced. Vanadium increases the tempering stability of quenched steel and produces secondary hardening effect. The vanadium content in steel, except high speed tool steel, is generally less than 0.5%.

The cold working performance of A387 GR.12 CL.2 pressure vessel steel sheet and so on steel structure engineering steel is good, which can ensure that the steel will not crack or brittle fracture during high-temperature processing, and will not have a great impact on strength, plasticity and toughness due to processing. The durability of A387 GR.12 CL.2 pressure vessel steel sheet and so on steel structure engineering steel is good. Durability refers to the service life of steel structure. The main factor affecting the service life of steel is the poor corrosion resistance of steel, followed by the deterioration of mechanical properties of steel under long-term load, repeated load and dynamic load.
