What is ASME SA387GR.22L HIC NACE equivalent to?

At Gangsteel, we manufacture and supply ASME SA387 Grade 22L HIC NACE steel plates (also known as SA387GR22L HIC or SA387 Gr.22L HIC NACE). This is a low-carbon 2.25Cr-1Mo alloy steel specially processed for Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) resistance and full compliance with sour service standards.

Equivalent Grades of ASME SA387 Grade 22L HIC NACE

Important Notes from Gangsteel

ASME SA387 Grade 22L HIC NACEis the low-carbon version of Grade 22, which provides better weldability and toughness than standard SA387 Gr.22, while still offering good creep resistance up to 550°C.

To meet HIC + NACE requirements, we apply:

• Ultra-low sulfur (S ≤ 0.002%) and phosphorus control
• Inclusion shape control (ISC)
• Special normalizing + tempering heat treatment
• 100% HIC testing according to NACE TM0284 (CLR ≤15%, CTR ≤5%, CSR ≤2%)
• Full compliance with NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 for sour (wet H₂S) service

This makes SA387GR22L HIC NACE particularly suitable for wet H₂S environments in refineries, gas processing plants, and pressure vessels where both hydrogen cracking resistance and good weldability are critical.
