SA387GR21 Steel Plate | ASME SA387 Grade 21 Class 1 & Class 2 Supplier – Gangsteel

 

Gangsteel is a professional manufacturer and reliable exporter of SA387GR21 Steel Plate (ASME SA387 Grade 21). With more than 15 years of experience in chromium-molybdenum alloy steels, we supply both Class 1 and Class 2 SA387 Gr21 plates to power plants, refineries, and pressure vessel fabricators worldwide. SA387GR21 (1.25Cr-0.5Mo) is a cost-effective and widely used grade for moderate high-temperature service up to 540°C.

What Is SA387GR21 Steel Plate?

SA387GR21 is a 1.25% chromium and 0.5% molybdenum alloy steel plate designed for elevated temperature applications. It offers good creep resistance, oxidation resistance, and excellent fabricability. Compared to carbon steel, SA387GR21 provides significantly better high-temperature strength while remaining more economical than higher alloy grades such as SA387GR22 or SA387GR91.
