ASME SA516 Gr 60 (NACE + HIC) Plate Industrial Applications
Oil & Gas Equipment
In sour-gas separators, it helps stop H₂S from causing hydrogen-induced and sulphide stress cracking, keeping sour wells leak-free during service.
Boilers & Pressure Vessels
Ideal for steam drums and heat exchangers because it offers reliable high-pressure performance and excellent weldability.
Refinery Chemical Reactors
Used in refinery columns where wet gas is present, its low sulfur content prevents internal damage from hydrogen buildup over time.
Offshore & Shipbuilding
Used for offshore platform modules and ship hulls because it retains toughness at low service temperatures when supplied in normalised condition with supplementary impact testing
