SA612 is a high strength carbon steel and Kloeckner Metals is proud to supply it routinely across our nationwide network of branches.
SA612 is killed carbon-manganese-silicon steel plate made for welded pressure vessels. Its fine grain makes it suitable for use in moderate and lower temperature service where impact resistance is important.
SA612 is a high value pressure vessel quality steel plate. PVQ steel plates are specifically certified to contain liquids and gasses under ambient conditions. This grade provides good notch toughness and can tolerate moderate to lower temperatures.
The grade is fully killed, or deoxidized to meet mechanical standards required by oil, gas, and petrochemical industries for use in fusion welded industrial boilers and pressure vessels.
The grade is best for use in pressure vessels and industrial boilers. It is also ideal for other applications with exposure to moderate and low temperature conditions, and where high strength is required.
It has good machinability.
It has excellent weldability.
It is heat treatable.

The ultimate tensile strength for this high carbon steel falls between 560 – 695 MPa, or 81,200 – 101,000 psi.
PVQ, or Pressure Vessel Quality steel, specifies general requirements for steel plates for pressure vessels. As pressure vessels often contain hazardous gases or liquids, the steel must show high-strength and retain pressure without cracking. Deoxidation of the steel plates conform to PVQ specifications for fine grain, which, along with its specific chemical composition, makes the steel impact resistant.
This steel plate, and other PVQ carbon plates, have a maximum thickness that is limited by the ability of the steel to meet mechanical property specifications set by the ASTM.
