ASTM A516 grade 60 steel is pressure vessel quality steel. It offers an optimum combination of energy, weldability and notch toughness. ASTM A516 grade 60 steel plate in thickness of 40 mm [1.5 in] or under it normally supplied in as-rolled condition. ASTM A516 grade 60 steel plate over 40 mm [1.5 in] thickness shall be normalized. ASTM A516 grade 60 steel properties are as below.
Pressure vessel quality ASTM A516 grade 60 steel properties - chemical composition:
