Pressure Vessel Plates
We deliver pressure vessel steels for the vessel and apparatus industry. Our pressure vessel plates are mainly used in the chemical and petrochemical industry.
Our high-temperature pressure vessel steels show best results in particular use with elevated temperatures in hot application pressure vessels.
9 % Nickel steels are used for the construction of storage tanks for liquid natural gas (LNG).
We can also offer selected pressure vessel steel grades in sourgas resistant condition.
Advantages
We deliver both shell plates and heads from a single source. The benefits for our customers are as follows:
- Advantages in processing, best welding properties and workability when using steel from one single source for shell plates as well as heads.
- Technical assistance and coordination from one department quality and research.
- Simultaneous production and delivery of shell plates and heads.
- Smaller expenditures in purchasing for the customer.
