Chrome Moly Plate

Chrome Molybdenum steel plate (often referred to in the industry as Chrome Moly) is used for a wide variety of applications particularly in the oil and gas industry, the nuclear industry and fossil fuel power stations.

The molybdenum provides increased strength and higher working temperatures whilst the chromium facilitates excellent corrosion resistance and oxidation.

With such high temperature tensile strength and anti-corrosive properties, our chrome molybdenum is also highly effective in salt water applications. Masteel offers an extensive range of chrome moly steel plate with the following benefits:

major stockholding
global shipping
variety of plate widths
extensive range of thicknesses
quick turnaround
accurate ‘in-house’ cutting and profiling service

high quality steel from major European steel mills

Specifications & Grades:

EN10028: Part2 :2006 is a euro norm standard relating to weldable pressure vessel grade alloy and non–alloy steels used in elevated temperature service.

The standard supersedes the old British and DIN standards. Chrome Molybdenum steels, with their higher temperature resistance, come under this standard and this section includes link to EN10028 chrome moly grades which are suitable for the fabrication of pressure vessels and boilers.

Chrome Molybdenum pressure vessel grade steels offers good corrosion resistance and weldability. We supply this material to fabricators who serve the major oil, petrochemical and gas companies.

Masteel stock EN 10028: 2: 2006 specified chrome moly steel which is shipped with test certification and stamping.

10CrMo910, with increased molybdenum and chromium, provides greater heat and corrosion resistance than 16Mo3 & 13CrMo45.

Again the material is a pressure vessel grade steel for use in elevated temperature service. Masteel supplies 10CrMo910 to fabricators serving the oil and gas industry. The steel has good weldability and is offered under the EN 10028 standard.

Please refer to the technical information for 10CrMo910 below.

13CrMo45 is chrome moly steel intended for use in the fabrication of weldable steel pressure vessels and boilers in elevated temperature service.

The material offers excellent performance with higher than normal temperature resistance and displays excellent anti-corrosive properties making it suitable steel for use in sour service environments. Popular with the oil, petrochemical and gas industries, 13CrMo45 is supplied under the EN 10028 euro norm standard.
