   • Ideal for heat exchangers in chemical processing, ensuring efficient heat transfer under high pressure.
2. Pressure Vessels in Petrochemical Industry:
   • Employed in storage tanks and reactors for processing crude oil and natural gas, with HIC resistance (NACE MR0175) for sour service environments.
   • Supports high-pressure applications in refineries, as detailed in BS EN 10028-2 P355GH specifications.
3. Piping Systems for Hot Liquids:
   • Utilized in pipelines transporting hot liquids in oil and gas facilities, offering excellent weldability and durability.
   • Available in thicknesses from 6 mm to 300 mm to meet diverse piping requirements.
4. Power Generation Equipment:
   • Applied in steam drums and turbine components, where P355GH boiler steel plate ensures structural integrity under thermal stress.

Why Choose BS EN 10028-2 P355GH for Industrial Applications?

• Elevated Temperature Performance: With a yield strength of 355 MPa (≤16 mm) and tensile strength of 510–650 MPa, BS EN 10028-2 P355GH steel plate maintains performance at high temperatures, per BS EN 10028-2 standards.
• HIC Resistance: Low sulfur (0.015% max) and supplementary HIC testing ensure reliability in sour service environments.
• Versatile Dimensions: Available in widths of 1500 mm to 4050 mm and lengths of 3000 mm to 15000 mm, suitable for large-scale projects.
• Weldability: Low carbon equivalent (CEV ≤ 0.45) facilitates welding without compromising strength, ideal for complex fabrications.

Applications and Advantages of BS EN 10028-2 P355GH Steel Plate

Notes:

• The BS EN 10028-2 P355GH steel plate is designed for elevated-temperature applications, with a chemical composition optimized for weldability and HIC resistance, as detailed in BS EN 10028-2 P355GH specifications.
• Supplementary tests (e.g., HIC per NACE MR0175, S1–S17) ensure the pressure vessel steel plate P355GH meets stringent quality requirements for sour service and high-pressure environments.
• Gangsteel offers P355GH boiler steel plate in thicknesses from 6 mm to 300 mm, widths of 1500 mm to 4050 mm, and lengths of 3000 mm to 15000 mm, providing flexibility for diverse industrial applications.
• The plate’s low carbon equivalent (CEV ≤ 0.45) and fine-grain structure (due to aluminum content) make it ideal for welding and forming in complex fabrications.

Case Study: Petrochemical Pressure Vessel Fabrication

A recent Gangsteel project involved supplying pressure vessel steel plate P355GH for a petrochemical plant’s reactor vessels. The plates, ranging from 20 mm to 100 mm in thickness, were tested for HIC resistance (NACE MR0175) and ultrasonic integrity (S12). The BS EN 10028-2 P355GH steel plate provided excellent formability and weldability, enabling the client to meet stringent safety standards while maintaining project timelines.
