Carbon Steel Plates for Tanks & Pressure Vessels | Boiler Quality Supplier India

Carbon Steel Plates for Tanks & Pressure Vessels – Reliable Pressure-Containing Performance

Need carbon steel plates for manufacturing storage tanks, pressure vessels, or boilers?
At Hindustan Steel Corporation, we supply pressure vessel quality plates (PVQ) with MTC, NACE/HIC testing, and cut-to-size options for fabricators in India, UAE, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and beyond.

Our steel plates meet stringent ASME, ASTM, and Indian Boiler Regulation (IBR) standards.

What Are Pressure Vessel & Tank Steel Plates?

These are carbon-manganese steel plates designed to withstand high pressure, low-temperature service, and critical stress conditions during operation.

We supply plates for:

  • Low-pressure storage tanks
  • High-pressure gas cylinders
  • Steam boilers
  • Chemical reactors
  • Air receivers
  • Process vessels

Applications Across Industries

  • Oil & Gas – Storage tanks, separators
  • Petrochemical Plants – Process vessels, columns
  • Power Plants – Steam drums, economizers
  • Chemical Industries – Reactors, digesters
  • Food & Pharma – Sterilizers, fermenters
  • Refineries – Desalters, knock-out drums
  • Water Treatment – Clarifiers, storage tanks

We supply both standard plates and custom-cut pieces for OEM tank fabricators and pressure vessel manufacturers.
