GB/T 713 Q420R steel plate, also written as Q420R pressure vessel steel plate, GB713 Q420R, Q420R high-strength vessel plate, is a higher-strength low-alloy pressure vessel plate under GB/T 713 / GB/T 713.2 in the 420 MPa yield class, typically normalized fine-grain delivery. Gangsteel (HENAN GANG IRON AND STEEL) produces and exports Q420R plates cut to size with MTC for high-strength vessels and tanks.
Data source: Per GB/T 713 / GB/T 713.2-2023 (Steel plate, sheet and strip for pressure equipments — Part 2: Non-alloy and alloy steel with specified temperature properties; buyers still search “GB/T 713”). Official mill/certificate grade is Q420R. Verify the contracted edition and purchase-order supplements before ordering.

| 10–20 mm | 420 MPa | 590-720 MPa | 18% | 0°C / -20°C per order |
| >20–30 mm | 400 MPa | 570-700 MPa | 18% | per order |
Per GB/T 713.2. Confirm full thickness table and impact temperature on the PO.
Normalized or equivalent fine-grain delivery. Optional elevated-temperature tensile, UT, Z-test and 3.1/3.2 MTC.
Commonly about 10–60 mm (confirm mill max), width 1500-4000 mm, length 6000-18000 mm.
High-strength boilers, pressure vessels, mobile tanks where the 420 MPa yield class reduces wall thickness.

Equivalents are engineering references only. Dual certification requires the stricter combined limits on the PO and MTC.
It is a HSLA boiler and pressure vessel steel under GB/T 713 / GB/T 713.2. a higher-strength low-alloy pressure vessel plate under GB/T 713 / GB/T 713.2 in the 420 MPa yield class, typically normalized fine-grain delivery. Gangsteel lists the official mill/certificate grade as Q420R. See the full GB/T 713 Q420R page for chemistry and mechanical tables.
About 420 MPa min in the thin band; confirm thicker-band reductions on the edition table. Typical tensile bands are shown in the mechanical properties table on this page; confirm the contracted GB/T 713.2 edition before design.
As ordered (commonly 0°C or -20°C under GB/T 713.2 supplements). Always state the required Charpy temperature and energy on the purchase order.
Normalized or equivalent fine-grain delivery. Optional elevated-temperature tensile, UT, Z-test and 3.1/3.2 MTC.
All sit in the GB/T 713.2 non-alloy / microalloy vessel family. Sister carbon grades: Q245R / Q345R / Q370R / Q460R. Hub: GB/T 713 Steel Plate.
No. They are often compared for design but chemistry, impact and delivery rules differ. See ASTM A516 and A516 Grade 70 / SA516 Gr.70. Dual certification needs the stricter combined limits on the PO and MTC.
EN 10204 3.1 as standard; 3.2 with third-party inspection when ordered. MTC lists heat analysis, mechanical tests, delivery condition and any optional UT / Z / HIC / elevated-temperature results.
Commonly about 10–60 mm (confirm mill max), width 1500-4000 mm, length 6000-18000 mm. Browse the GB/T 713 hub for the full grade list.
